 Thanks -- by: Dean RobersonNov. 5, 2010 - 5:45:34PM  
Speaking as an attendee I would like to agree that it was WONDERFUL seeing so many familiar faces after such a long sabatical. The warmth and friendship in the room was palpable & it fit like an old shoe! I only have one regret & that's that I didn't have enough time to get reaquainted with everyone. I'm going to rectify that at the next reunion! I also wanted to say to all of you that attended that we couldn't have done it without YOU! Thanks for taking the time & effort to attend. It seems that everyone had a great time and hopefully with YOUR help we can get the rest of our classmates as excited as we were to attend the next reunion.

Speaking as a committee member, I would like first thank all my fellow committee members for all their hard work & perseverence & issue a hearty ATTA BOY & GIRL for your most excellant performance.It was great working with each & every one of you. THANK YOU! I'm looking foward to meeting Monday night to begin planning our next reunion. See you then & thanks again.

Respectfully,

Dean Roberson

 
 Had So Much Fun -- by: Sharon Spicer RobbinNov. 3, 2010 - 7:37:15PM  
everybody out there, I wanted to say how much fun I had at the reunion. Thanks to all on the committee for putting this together. It was awesome. Sharing good ole times and seeing how well everyone was doing made the night so very special..I am so glad I did not miss this opportunity to revisit the past and a good past at that. We have so much to be thankful for. Hope to see everyone at the next one.

 40th Reunion Festivities -- by: Bobby KingNov. 3, 2010 - 12:37:32AM  
Wow! What a great reunion weekend! I certainly second Leroy's comment below--the Reunion Committee ( Joan, Anne, Dean, Amy, Grayson, Darlene, Susan, Sandy, David & Bobby) did a fantastic job and deserve a big "thank you". A special thanks to Bobby Hamil for being our website administrator and kicking this reunion effort off and allowing us a vehicle to stay in touch with.

Walking in to the football game Friday night I don't think anyone had any idea what to expect--it had been easily 25 years since I had been there. As we got to the section reserved for the "Class of 1970" familiar faces began to emerge--yeah--there were a few more wrinkles and maybe a few more pounds here and there--a little less hair (or grayer hair) in some cases--but the smiles and the eyes were the same. Within minutes--it seemed as if we had never been apart. To make the night better-- LD won the football game.

The reunion Saturday night was wonderful. Great food, music, venue and most of all great conversation and memories. Seeing old friends and classmates--reliving old memories and creating new ones.

Even though there were bets in place that most of us would be gone and headed to bed by 10:00pm that night--(as we are nearing 60)--the reunion continued on until around 1:00am.

The mood was warm, relaxed and cordial--friends and classmates; most of whom had not seen each other in at least 20 or so years reminiscing and sharing with each other.

For all of you that were at the reunion, it was really great seeing and being with you again. Whenever you get to Seattle, please get in touch.

For those classmates that were unable to attend or chose not to attend for some reason, we missed you and hope to see you at the next reunion.

Best regards.

Bobby King

 Our Class Reunion -- by: Donna Holt ElmoreOct. 30, 2010 - 9:18:31AM  
My journey from highschool days has taken lots of turns to get to where I am today. I gained a lot of practical knowledge from commercial, construction, mortage lending to retail branch banking experience, a little real estate investment success and then into construction where I now own an underground utility business, specializing in water and sewer. Between banking and construction, I trained, coached and showed hunter horses, producing 6 champians, one of which won a Medal at Madison Square Gardens, which is the highest honor that can be achieved just under an olympic medal. Also achieved trainer of the year award in Virginia. I have a daughter 42, who is a pilot with United Airlines and a son 25, who sells for C. H. Robinson, a logistics company like UPS serving freight carriers.

 
 Missing Reunion -- by: Anne Wilkinson SchloOct. 28, 2010 - 10:50:08PM  
I'm not going to be able to attend... something's come up that I need to stay here for - I'm bummed.

Thank you to the organizing committee for doing such a good job - wish I could have helped in some way (being on the "organizing committee" Please post pictures - Guess I can look forward to the next time! Anne

I remember seeing Karla once when I accidently hit the horn on my mail truck and she came to the door. I ran into Bonnie McKay immediately after surgery (don't ask what) at Retreat Hospital and I always wondered what became of Evelyn Bowles. Wasn"t it Somoa she moved to. It sounded so exotic.

 
 Payment for Reunion -- by: Ann PowellSep. 30, 2010 - 4:59:48AM  
I didn't see on the RSVP where to use Pay Pal to pay for the reunion. Please let me know how I can finish with my RSVP. Thanks! Ann
