We're still open
This website will remain open, but notices of deaths in the class will be sent to email addresses we have listed on another page in this website.
But, by all means, send along recent news about what's happening in your lives. We'll be glad to post that. Also, feel free to use the Guestbook, and revisit past news and photos listed in our directory.
As mentioned previously, the 65th Reunion was our last one. In the future, only gatherings will be held at local restaurants where those attending will order from the menus.
Stay connected. Happy trails to all.
