Your Reunion Committee has decided to have a lunch meeting in Denison to make some important decisions.  It occurred to us that some of you might like to join us - informal, Dutch treat - just to get together and visit and maybe talk about having low-key, pre-planned lunches every six months or so rather than those wonderful, fancy, work-intensive reunions every two years.   Don't know about you, but we seem to be doing more sittin' and sassin' than movin' and shakin' lately, but we still feel a need to "catch up" with you all, so we're looking for a way to continue the visiting without all that hard work!  It also occurs to us, at our age and with some mobility issues here and there, that upping the frequency and simplifying the process would be the right move.  It would be helpful, as we look at alternatives, to know whether you believe travel is out for you but would still like to be included in these events somehow.  You can indicate that in the comments section of the reservation survey below.

 CLASS MEETING CALLED

10% of our class kindly responded to the survey about a class meeting luncheon in June.

AS TIME GOES BY 

As time goes by, change happens.    Some of those changes, if known by our classmates, will elicit a little prayer, a note, a phone call or text, or just a fond thought.  Oftentimes, none of the "old gang" hears about these changes until years later.  We would like to fix that.

 

We are placing greater emphasis on posting to the Message Forum.  For clarity, we've changed the name to Family & Friend News.  We encourage you to post to this Forum when you have news about classmates' families, friends who were in another class, or personal news you want to share.  Our intent is to give you the ability to let the class know of situations where extending thoughts and prayers might be helpful to our lifelong friends.  

This is not a rumor board.  Please use discretion when discussing another person's personal business.  Once you post, an email will be sent to all classmates notifying them of a new post.  

We hope you find this new emphasis helpful.

Remember this scene from your Senior year at DHS

during the cold winter months of December or January?

Jerry Lummus found this in his "memory box" and sent it along, reporting,  "From the number of cars shown in the shot, it was most likely taken on a Friday or Saturday night.  We all know, of course, there's no going home again, but this one sure made me stop and rummage around in the memories for a few minutes.  It underlines once again how lucky we are to have our little hometown in our lives."

Agreed.  

You now have the opportunity to share more of those memories with your classmates in person!  Don't miss the May 3 festivities!  The Spring Fling is no cost, no reservation.  Just show up and enjoy your friends.  The Class of '62 Dinner details are being finalized.  

In the meantime, enjoy those memories and remember, sharing them always brings smiles, laughter, and a few tall tales!

Hope to see you May 3!

Leahray, Lynette, Gale & Betty
