Agreed Rick. Thank you Veteran classmates and to our parents and all who served. My dad's ship was torpedoed in the Phillippines and I was able to get a lot of photos from the internet of the USS Canberra being towed and later being repaired in dry dock.
Hoping to see a good turnout for a welcome home greeting for Nancy Wright Bateman. Meeting Saturday Jan 21 at 6 p.m. at the Paragon Pub. Great way to break a January blagh.
Thank you Jerry and Marcy. I just sent out a classwide email of the date changing from the 21st to the 28th. I hope you are still able to attend Jerry. Heck, with the later date it may even give Marcy time to fly up?? Anyway, thanks for the posts and good will.
So sorry I'm going to miss this winter gathering --I guess I'm one of the so called "Snow Birds"! 😎 Looking forward to maybe a spring get together at the new restaurant Tavern on The Lake in Hobart! Thank you Rod--Enjoy!!
Thank you Marty. We have a pretty special class. I am proud that so many participate in maintaining the bond we have. We are all blessed with each other. Kind wishes old friend.
i'll be in town Saturday, June 7. There will be a re-dedication of Fred Rose Park at 2:00 pm, thanks to the work of the friends of Fred Rose Park. They have restored the monument by end of Lake Shore Drive which is the location of the re-dedication. Doug
Hello all! Don Woodard is going to be in the area. I'm trying to get some people together for a time of love & laughter & memories. Don wants to get together at the Paragon on the 20th at 6:00. I've never put something together like this before. Please let me know if you're interested. He said that he wants to see some of you. Message me here or on my Facebook page, Opie Reynolds. TIA
Please keep Ray Grivetti in your prayers as he undergoes heart surgery on September 17th. Could those of you who played in the band please send him cards? He would be thrilled! His address is:
Thank you for the post Cheryl. May God guide the surgeon's hands as Ray has heart valve surgery and may he make a full complete recovery. I will keep him in prayer.
