I don't remember it. But there should still be some Thimmes there now. Mr. Richard Thimmes was a teacher at Lancaster High School in 1966, the year I graduated. He was a Vocational Auto-Mechanic. He'd be pretty old now. I also went to school with Stephanie Timmes. She was the Sweetheart Queen that year, a very lovey young woman. I don't know what became of her. In the sophomore class there was a Jon Timmes. In the junior class there were David, Pam, Rod, Timmes. In the senior class there was Cynthia Ann Thimmes (she might have become a teacher or nurse), and Stephanie as I mentioned before. Lancaster High School has an online site but I don't have the http right now. Judith Jasper
