Carl brought a friendly, cheerful presence to our daily Home Room. What a wonderful way to start a busy school day & to enjoy a few moments after Zero hours science classes!!

Our In Memory list is rapidly growing. I, for one, am grateful for good health and for feeling "young" inside - the mirror first thing in the morning can bring each of us back to reality that we're either 73 or 74 years old. LOL, is that "the new middle age" for some of us blessed by great health & active lives. 

Grateful for my 4 years at L.C., for growing up in Spokane & for connection with my husband, Mike King's Gonzaga Class of 1963!

Priest Lake for 1-2 weeks in July tends to be our yearly destination, along with most of our immediate family & many in Mike's family as well!!
