Most of you wont remember me and high school isn't something I like to dwell on. Sheryl, however, was my friend, she was very sweet to me, and I think she should be remembered.
Sheryl was in Mrs. Flowers computer typing classes with me and always took a moment to say hello. I remember that she had enlisted in the armed services before graduation. We talked on the phone about it the day she signed up and she was so excited. But then she found out she was pregnant so she didnt go and stayed in Memphis.
It's been many years but ...I remember the night the news came on and showed her graduation portrait which I recognized. She was at a bank on Lamar and was killed during an armed robbery. I was stunned.
I ran across her name again on this site and her blank page is disturbing to me so I thought I 'd add something. I wish I had a picture of her but I didnt keep my yearbook. This is what I found out about the case:
Hi Tracie. I was so shocked when I found out she passed. I heard about it a few years afterwards. Thank you for posting the links to the story. I remember her as very quiet but very sweet. I wish I'd known her better.
We don't use this page much - hasn't been updated in years - just keep up with everyone via facebook it seems. Hope you are doing well!
Fron, send me Sheryl's picture and I will update the In memory section. I was surprised I even remembered my login information - it's really probably been since our 10th reunion that I used this site.

Hi Shay the picture that I have is a yearbook picture. I was surprised I could login as well!Tracie Smith (Gatewood)
Hi Fron, you're the only one I kept up with on FB. the changing hair colors are always a highlight of my day. The blonde is my favorite.
I was surprised I could get in too. I got an advertisement and decided to take a look.
Shay Bader (Wallace)
That's funny because my favorite facebooker is Fron and her hair colors...in fact I think her hair needs its own facebook. :)

Does anybody know what happened to John Walker? I can't find anything online but it was a commonly used name.
