Finally jumping in on the class reunions.? I had my 50th last year and was elected class president for ?the next couple of ones we will have.? Decided to hold them every 2-2 1/2 yrs.? Next June we will hold another one.? It will be in our place.? We just felt with the rate we are loosing classmates, 5 years was too long to wait to see each other again.? It will be less expensive, also.? No place to rent, etc.? We are at the age we want to sit and talk anyway and catch up.? WE are scattered all over the USA.? We have auctions and karaoke (SP) and is always fun.? Just had our monthly luncheon today.? We never know who will attend and it is always fun. Sometimes 24 or even 4.? Good times.?

Another thing I forgot to mention was that out of our 23 class members, we were able to locate 20 of them. Those 3 remain at large, and they are: Joe Anderson---last known to be in Denver, CO. Rhonda (Ice) Christian---believed to be somewhere in FL. I took her to the Spring Banquet one year and she ended up leaving with somebody else. Oh well. If she ever turns up at a future reunion, I'm going to tease her big time on that one. :-) Through one of the Rootsweb mailing lists, I did find her cousin and she told me that one of Rhonda's younger sisters lives near where I work. Only thing is she couldn't recall her current last name. Rhonda is the only one in our class with a grandchild. Keary (Peterson) Jerden---has lived in Texas but is believed to be somewhere in Missouri. If anyone on this list knows these people, please let me know. Thanks! Rick B
