I posted this photo when our site was new.
After the reunion, I deleted all of my profile photos to post your photos from the reunion.
Many say they miss this.
To paraphrase what I think I wrote many months ago;
This is a photo taken in the Santa Barbara area.
It was used during Stefanie Canright's memorial along with Tom Petty's song and this line, "You Belong Among the Wildflowers".
I posted it for obvious reasons. It's beautiful and breath taking. She was a beautiful and amazing young woman whose life was tragically cut short. I say the same for all of our classmates and their family members who are no longer with us. Over a year's time, we learned of more names than we'd anticipated or would ever have thought we'd hear about.
This photo is dedicated to all who are no longer with us, who are missed, who we believe are in a far better place..... including among the wildflowers.
Dale,
So sorry to hear about Elizabeth. I would like to share a poem with you that I hope will bring you some comfort.
Blue Against Blue
This Heavenly Blue Butterfly
Will fly high in the sky,
Higher and higher.
The sunlight will touch
The blue on its wings
Until it seems to disappear.
We think it is gone,
Because the blue of the butterfly
Is the same blue of the sky.
We think it is gone,
Because our eyes are too
Weak to see—
And it is difficult to believe
What we cannot see.
But the Blue Butterfly is not gone.
It is still flying, higher and higher,
Nearer to the sun.
Blue Against Blue.
Now and Forever.
With Deepest Sympathy

Hi Maggie, Love your pics...you look good and happy. Isn't dancing fun? I started ballroom dancing in 2008, it is the best! Hope the years have been good to you.
Happy belated birthday!

Happy belated birthday. I will be having one of those myself tomorrow, 65 can't believe it. The years have gone by so fast. Hope all is well with you and your family.

Happy birthday! Hope the years have been good to you and Patty. I can't believe it has been 46 years, I now have granddaughter that is in high school. It is just amazing how time has flown by. Take care.
