I'm getting a lot of information re the missing classmates, but still have to filter out the erroneous information. I'll be updating soon.

AS I call to verify I have the right person(s), I'm assuming you want me to invite them to the party of 12 September?

I've been using yahoo mail for years but have maintained a gmail address which I've had even longer. I'm not sure what's going on but yahoo is playing games which is aggrivating me, thus I'm migrating everything back to my gmail account. Please begin using dwhutchinson@gmail.com instead of the yahoo account. Thanks

okay Dan, I will check what I've been using and will plan on the gmail one. Thanks for letting us all know.

For those of you who haven't heard, Linda Davis Tracy passed away 04/15/24 in Idaho. We received information that Jane Anderson passed away possibly sometime in November 2023 in San Antonio, Texas. But this has not been verified for sure because we're not sure of her married name.

Now a litte humor to assuage the somber mood. Ol' Mario comes through again.

Some of us can relate.

Just had a very long, nice chat with Carol Sorenson --- married name is Plowman, husband Boyd. Carol Plowman.

She lives in Data Point, California. Her phone number is:909-635-8907. I don't have her email address, yet, she will text me with it, and we can add it. She's been in the commercial realestate business for several years and apparently does quite well. She said the majority of her focus is on selling, assisting in setting up bakeries, and restaurants. I'm sure there is much more to add.

Carol, said she has never been aware of any of our reunions. I told her about the forthcoming reunion for out 80th birthday on September 12, and she said she's very interested, thanking me for reaching out.

I'll post more as I get it.

For you entrepreneurs looking for a way to make a few extra bucks. Mario again.

"The kids filed back into class Monday morning. They were very excited. Their weekend assignment was to sell something, then give a talk on productive salesmanship.

Little Suzie led off: "I sold girl scout cookies and I made $30," she said proudly, "My sales approach was to appeal to the customer's civil spirit and I credit that approach for my obvious success."

"Very good," said the teacher.

Little Vicky was next: "I sold magazines," she said, "I made $45 and I explained to everyone that magazines would keep them up on current events."

"Very good, Vicky," said the teacher.

Eventually, it was Little Joey's turn. The teacher held her breath.

Little Joey walked to the front of the classroom and dumped a box full of cash on the teacher's desk. "$2,467," he said.

"$2,467!" cried the teacher, "What in the world were you selling"

"Toothbrushes," said Little Joey.

"Toothbrushes," echoed the teacher, "How could you possibly sell enough tooth brushes to make that much money?"

"I found the busiest corner in town," said Little Joey, "I set up a Dip & Chip stand, I gave everybody who walked by a free sample."

They all said the same thing, "Hey, this tastes like dog crap!"

Then I would say, "It is. Wanna buy a toothbrush?

I used the governmental approach of giving you crap for free, and then making you pay to get the bad taste out of your mouth."

Hey Dan, that was pretty quick work locating Carol Sorensen Plowman. When you get her email address, let me know so I can add it to our list. We also would like the full mailing address of any classmates you locate; Full name, address, phone number, and email address are fields on the listing that we would like to get updated. Thank you for your information.

Connie Johnson Ott, the address for Madalyn Leonardi Norton is 523 N Main in Bountiful, Utah 84010; not 823 N Main. Also, who is Bonnie Johnson. At first I thought of Connie Johnson; then, I realized that that was you (lol). There isn't a Bonnie Johnson in my 1962 yearbook. ? ? ?
