One more . . .

Just heard from Nancy Karen (Moore) Albright! She hadn't thought she'd get to come . . . BUT thinks she'll be here after all. That's good news.

There are quite a few of you I KNOW are coming . . . why haven't I heard from you?

Thanks to Herb for this picture of Nancy from our 40th reunion!

More! More! More!

I've heard from two more of our classmates! Linda Lee (Diamond) Caudill, and Judy (Preece) Parks. Now we're in the mid-twenties!

Here's a view of the Garden Theater as we knew it.

Good News and Bad News . . .

I thought you might get a kick out of seeing Dee's (at left).

I've received money from Billy Short and Isabelle (Chapman) Johns. If my count is right, that makes 22 folks, so far. I hope that fires up the rest of you.

Quite a few of you are not coming in pairs. So those of you who might be hesitating because of that, take heart and send in your money. It's too little (money) to gain much interest anyway.

Heard from 3 more classmates!

Today I received replies from Joe Hammond. Rhoda (Preece) Ross, and Jessie Anne (and Gerald ) Coffey. If I haven't encouraged you all to contact each other and especially some of our more shy classmates, let me do so now. Nothing beats one-to-one contact. I'm trying to do it, but I'd appreciate anything any of you might do also.

Meanwhile, to the left is another photo taken by Herbie at our 40th.

Today's mail . . .

Got checks today from John Wright, Brad Wright, and Jack Harden . . . and a returned envelop addressed to Glenna Rucker in Louisa. Thanks to Karen Rose (Chapman) most of the addresses I DO have are correct.

Here's a picture from our 40th Reunion that Herb sent to me. Do you know who? (Those of you who attended DON'T jump in before folks have time to mull it over). AND I'd like to know how he got to be a pilot wearing those THICK glasses!

Update on the Reunion . . .

Mike Wilson (Possom's son) recently uploaded old pictures of Louisa to his Facebook site. I thought you might enjoy this one of the court house way back when.

I received checks from Jean Diamond and Karen (and Dennis) Chapman and had mail RETURNED from Homer Jackson and Sandra Little today. Harold Gene Frazier is going to try and find the missing for me . . . as he did Shelby Jean Hughes Mead's address. I also have been in touch with Claudia Wilson.

The folks I totally have no clue about are Geraldine Adkins, Joan Adkins, Bob Bryant, Linda Lou Crabtree and Ernestine Moore. If any of you know ANYTHING about these folks, please let me know.

It's begun . . .

I sent out invitations to our Reunion on Monday. Friday I received Clyde (and Teresa) Adkin's check and Dickie (and Lura) Damron's check. I reckon Dickie's called John or Dick now but I don't recall which. Today (Saturday) I got Willis Rae (and Janie) Wheeler's check. I also heard from John Wright and Karen Rose (Chapman).

Above see one of the snapshots taken at our 40th Reunion. I don't think it's at all hard to figure out these two, do you? I'll be posting more as we go along. If you have pictures to post send them to me and I'll make sure we put them on the blog AND our class FaceBook page.
