I greatly enjoyed the reunion and send my appreciation to the organizers. It was awesome! I was especially happy to reconnect with both my East and Guilford friends.
Sometimes databases live forever. Even though my profile on the website shows no spouse, my ex-wife unexpectedly managed to appear in the printed directory. For the record, I am not currently married.
I've been away from Rockford a long time. Much has changed in the intervening decades. I remembered quite a bit but often had to use my GPS to make sure I was headed in the correct direction. By pure fluke, every reunion event was within 10 minutes of my hotel room.
The church I attended when I was growing up in Rockford, Our Savior's Lutheran on Rural Street, has had numerous expansions over the years and is now about three times bigger than when I was there. The changes are so dramatic that I hardly recognize it as my church. Ah, progress!
Thanks again to the organizers.
