Penny and Ora Lee died in a car accident. They were best friends and both of them were a lot of fun. I believe it happened on May 1st 1970- not long before our graduation. It was a sad time for our class.
Joann, you are right about the death date of Penny and Oralee. It was May 1, 1970. I checked it while I was up at the cemetery the other day. Penny and Oralee were always seen together. So it was fitting that they were together when they died. It was a shock and dark cloud that hung over our class when we graduated.
I was friends with both of them, and I remember how odd it was that there was a picture of them in the yearbook, that said.......we were strolling down the hall one day, waiting for the merry month of May....how ironic!
