Hello Jim: I remember you. You were next to me as being the tallest and I was the shortest. I think I am the same height still. How about you? It would be nice to see you again. I think we even went to elementary school together.
So, hope to see you Aug. 22! Dolly

HAPPY BELATED FATHERS DAY TO ALL YOU GUYS - I was off celebrating the day with My Favorite Father. You guys gotta get to work on some of the other guys - They all need to be encouraged to come too - and we need numbers -gals, bring a friend or your hubbies and send in your reservations. Plans are in the making!!! BONNIE - I really have to look for some, being I lost my yearbooks I don't know what I have for sure - hard to find!!

Still looking for more pix, newspaper articles, papers, etc. to add to our booklet. Cheryl has given me a few, but that is it so far!
Thanks, Bonnie

Hey Everyone,
Any thoughts about contacting anyone WE KNOW OF who's not planning on attending? Maybe a "pep talk" about the "after party room" and the hospitality room the next morning to egg them on. It's a perfect location, reasonable cost, great time of year, etc. Enthusiasm is contagious. I'd be willing to make calls, leave messages, whatever. I will continue my efforts to locate missing people too.

In the last week I have spoken to Hank Bishop, Bob Iskierka, Mike Murphy and Bob Rampi. I think Iskierka is seriously considering coming but apparently hasn't signed up yet. Don't know about the others. If anyone else wants to harass them give me a call and I will give you their number.

It would be great if they all came because they were not at the last reunion!

One thing that strikes me is all the people that came 5 years ago and aren't currently coming. Probably, 5 years ago seems like not that long ago to see everyone. I think we need to spread the word that there's more people located and people coming that didn't make it to the last one - for instance - Jim Nedry,Ron Gehl, Mike Murphy, John Adams, Joyce Anderson, Glen Buss, Brad Carpenter, Shirley Grell Garness, Bonnie Underhill Neumann, Marilynn Zgutowicz, Diane Arntsen, hopefully Doug Caple, Frieda Knight, Mina Thompson, Wayne Witherow - and many others that I don't know if they were at the last one or not. Also, how much we that missed out on the last reunion and all the others want to see them and WHO KNOWS WHEN THE NEXT REUNION WILL BE AND WHO'LL BE THERE - I think we should all encourage our friends that we know and have contact with - beyond that is yet to be decided.

Hi everyone- after reading all these messages I went out in the garage and dug out Vickys "Memories" suitcase.
She had letters,pictures,2 vocational pennants,a few
editions of the craftsman,south pacific program, graduation anouncement and a few other things. Unfortunatly, we lost most of our belongings in a fire
4 years ago.I had no idea what all was in there-what a
time capsule! life and time magazenes of Kenidys assasinatin etc.

Wow! how great was that to find all of those things. It must of been a great flashback for you.

RON; I use to think I was silly for keeping that stuff - NOW - oh my gosh I smiled all the way through paging thru what I had. If you have access to a scanner - send a few scans to Bonnie. I know I haven't seen a Grad Announcement, Pictures are so great, Pennants haven't seen any of those. They are all treasures.

Bishop and Murphy both changed their profile to "Yes" so you should be getting their check anytime. I think this is will go down as the best high school reunion I have ever attended.
