Hi Bob, great idea, great site, relatively user friendly even for us dyslexics! Thank you for letting me participate even though I am not an official card carrying member of MHS class of 67.  As I recall this was a good, looking bright bunch with lots of promise. I am looking forward to learning how they have fared in life.

What kind of car is that, and who is is the old guy sitting in it? Hi Dan, I don't think I could have picked you out of a line up of two. Been a long time.

Hi Wally!  I'm no expert but I think you just need to click on "Message Forum" on the right hand side below JFK. Then it will open any messages you sent or others have sent to you. Also, I think you may get an email alert on your other email account if others send you a message.  This message will be a good test to see if I got that straight!

God's best to you and yours,

Dan Hall

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

Virginia Goss (Gunderson)

50 Years!  Watch for registration information here on this site and a Facebook page soon to appear. We are celebrating much as we did for the 45th at Homecoming Weekend, 2012 beginning by gathering for the Homecoming Parade at Kay's House at 261 Franklin St.  Check out the pictures in the menu on this webpage.

New this year are some Saturday events. Being that our lives are mostly part of history now (We are not done climbing mountains yet, though), we will be connecting with Mondovi's Historical Society who have recently added the Olson Farm to their museum buildings at the Tourist Park.  This was "Grandma's house" to one of our classmates, Elaine Olson and she will be glad to share her memories.  The home has many furnishings from our day and even before.  We are also encouraging members to bring vintage and other cars to show off at our first ever 1967 Car Show.  Our name is on the Tourist Park calendar for Saturday, Oct. 7 at City Hall.

Buzz's for Dinner Sat. night and Breakfast at D & D's  Sunday complete the weekend. MARK your calendars and SAVE the weekend, NOW!

Colleen Forster (Garnevicus)

Tom and I hope to attend the Saturday events, maybe Friday also. Sunday I have work, but I'm sure breakfast will be grand without us. 

Virginia Goss (Gunderson)

Super!  Happy that the weekend mostly works out for you two. Should be fun. Please bring pictures.  Do you have some of your class at Lima.  It would be fun to see them and see if we can guess who they are since we should know some of them.  5th grade or so or any that you have.

Colleen Forster (Garnevicus)

I will look for pictures. Thanks!

Vern Keck

Has registration for the 50th reunion this fall started?  I need to register for Vern and I as I (Lonnie) will be in town and plan to attend as his guest.  

Virginia Goss (Gunderson)

Hello Vern,

     So glad you are putting this Homecoming Weekend in your schedule...  You can print the registration form from this webpage or the Facebook Page and send it to Kay Geraghty, P.O. Box 8, Mondovi, WI 54755.  You can choose to do any or all of the events, but only need to register for the supper on Saturday evening and the breakfast on Sunday morning.  The cost for the dinner is $25.00 and will cover some other expenses too.  We just need a number for breakfast and that will be paid on that day.  We will be doing the auction again, so we will need your help like you did last time by doing the drawing.  Your school spirit adds much to the fun!

Sincerely, Ginny

Vern Keck

Thanks Ginny.  Vern always looks forward to his reunions and I'm excited to be able to go as his guest this time.  He's shared a few times how much fun he had at the last one when he helped draw the names so I know he would enjoy that again.  I won't say anything to him so it will be a surprise.

I will actually be in Mondovi for our sister Beth's birthday June 25th and staying until mid July as well as in Oct for the reunion weekend.  I've not been there that long since I was in high school.  I flew to Oklahoma City the day after we graduated in '68 to work with some relatives from ND who were custom combining and never really got back for more than a week or two.

Take Care

Lonnie for Vern  

Robert Blum

Most of you remember Virginia Schroeder as one of our excellent teachers.  She taught French to in Middle School and High School, as well as English in High School.

Merci Madame

Our classmate Kay Steinke Geraghty's fantastic artwork is featured on the cover of Volume One, May 18,2023 edition! Her selected work is a portrait, "Colors of My Soul" . The medium is "encaustic" which is a beeswax based paint that is kept molten on a heated palette. All very interesting.

Congratulations Kay! What an accomplishment to have your work honored on the cover of Volume One!

Hello Classmates of MHS 1967,

     Tuesday, July 1 from 4-7 at the Barn at Mirror Lake      Y'all come!  Rhythm Playboys

     This is an invitation to a very informal celebration. No written invitations are being sent and you can invite friends or family.especially if they like to dance. Ed & I are married 55 years on June 20. Last August, he was hospitalized with Covid and bacterial pheumonia and was three days on a ventilator. Thanks to prayers and good hospital care, he is still with me and able to enjoy life. Our family gathers every summer over the 4th of July celebration so we thought this would be a fun way to be together and also have their friends gather with us.

There will be schottische lessons at 3:30 and waltzes and polkas will follow.  Even if you cannot dance, this is happy music to enjoy and Ryan Herman makes it especially fun. He entertains at the American Lutheran Home most months and this is where the idea came from.

We are at the purging stage of life so your gift will simply be your prescense and enjoyment of the music. It is also an opportunity to see the Barn at Mirror Lake which is a nice addition to Mondovi.Please share this information with classmates.

Happy to be together,

Ed & Ginny Gunderson

Robert Blum

Ginny, congratulations to you and to Ed for this 55th year of marriage celebration!!   Would you please take plenty of photos and post them?  (Better yet, everyone in attendance take photos and post them) 
We are fine.  Our son, Roger is marrying Anne Fitz in July.   They currently live in Santa Monica, but are relocating to New York City sometime this late summer or fall.  

Colleen Forster (Garnevicus)

Congrats, you two! We'll be there--I think I remember the Schottisce...spelling? 

Colleen & Tom

Daniel Hall

Congrats Ginny & Ed! 55 years of marriage is a wonderful testimony to God's faithfulness & yours.  Gathering at the Barn sounds like a great idea! The barn is such a "Dovi" icon. Lisa loved it and would have loved to attend. We actually have a photo of it in our Seattle home!  

Karen Ness (Erickson)

Congratulations Ginny and Ed on 55 years!  Your celebration will be so much fun...I'll be thinking of all of you!
