I just took a second to scroll through those classmates who have passed away and was shocked to learn of the death of Carolyn Childs. How in the world did I miss that? What a girl she was! She was one of the two Carolyns who were bridesmaids in my wedding! How do you lose contact with someone so close? I did reach out to her years ago when I heard she was going to be married, but who knows how long that's been? She was such a light, such a fun carefree girl with amazing parents. I'm sorry she's gone from us.
Mary Alice, thanks for posting. Unfortunately I never got to know her. I do recall her, and she always was pleasant, but never really even had a conversation with her. Looking back, it seems incredulous that there were so many classmates I did not get to know. True, there were 180+ of us in the graduating class, plus kids in all those other grades, but still. I have connected with some members of the '64 class whom I knew but did not ever get to know well, and have found them to be interesting and delightful. I think I must have been a normal kid--caught up in my own little world. my own safe routine. Well, it was my loss. Sorry about Carolyn. Hope you can be @ the reunion. I enjoy your FB posts.
