 Anyone having trouble with their messages or other things will have to contact Wendy!

 Ok, lets try this again Saturday morning. Even if it is a little sprinkle and no lightning, please come up to the lake! Tom and i went last Saturday to see if the storm was going to clear up, or if anyone showed up! It really wasn't to bad and did clear up later!  If your undecided come on up anyway you can get there anytime and leave anytime!

Randy Toler

All sounds like great fun; wish I could be there.  No oil spills at Warren Dunes!

Steve Merica

 OK,   Brenda, Tom, myself and Dave Smith had a great time at Tower Hill. The weather turned out real nice and sunny! Then we went to River Front Cafe for a afternoon lunch and a catching up on whats been happening since last year! I would like to welcome Brenda back to Michigan, making our state all the more beautiful!!!!

Wendy Rehm (Comar)

I second that Steve!  Welcome home Brenda---our long lost friend!

Katherine Holloway

Welcome Brenda! 

Sharon Simons (Hettinger)

Well, it must be hot in all of the US....not much chatting on the Forum! No one is energized; all seem to be enervated (my mother's favorite word!)....

I'm home from playing carillon recitals in Michigan; enjoying time and a new boat at the family cottage on Long Lake--near Traverse City; and another vacation trek to see my in-laws in Colorado (a tough place to visit--ha!)...at least the humidity was low there...and evening temps were cool.

Hope everyone is having some time off to re-charge their batteries...haven't heard from Jim L lately...hope you're okay in them-thar hills....

 Stopped in the class of 75 reunion last night! Everyone went to the riverfront cafe! Live band outside lots of dancing! Asked about combining our class reunions sometime in the future, they all liked the idea! Something we might think about! Even class of 73 too! What a great bunch of people! Anyone have any feed back on this?

Yes, Faith Mitchell Cash...husband Jim...died on Sunday (yesterday); if you'd like to read a little about their final walk together, check the caringbridge.com page...JIM CASH. 

Prayers are being lifted for Faith and her family.

And lets still keep Diana (Stewart) Curran and Jim in our prayers as they try to move forward from the loss of their Son Patrick on July 30th.

Prayers for ALL 

Beth Beers (Christie)

Steve - I would love to combine our reunion with the class of 73. So many of my brothers friends and we all hung with with so many 73'ers.   Do you know if that class has a website?

Steve Merica

 Beth, they don't have a web site that i know of!  I would also like to combine with them!

Tom Bonner

Been thinking and praying for both Faith, Diane and Jim

Tim Newsted

 Yes, continued prayers for the Curran and Cash families.

Wendy Rehm (Comar)

Life is fragile----embrace your loved ones everyday----that is what we need to do.  My condolences to all our classmates who are griefing.  Wendy

Sue-Sue Baird (Conlyn)

I apologize for not making the Sand Sculpting after I said I would be there..

My favorite cousin decided to get married in the middle of July, and I decided to attend..

Is there photographic evidence?

I Think combining reunions is a good idea.. I was close with people in other graduating years.  We are still getting such a big turn out though it may bee too soon to do that.

Take Care Of Yourselves!

Hi everyone-  I received the following email from Diana (Stewart) Curran and her family which I wanted to post to the site:

From 10:43 PM Friday July 30 to Thursday August 5, 2010

Steve Merica

 Sue-Sue, yes it is a little early yet with the big attendance we had last reunion. But in the future when we have less and less attendance and other classes do too, having our reunion with other classes could be an option! (or if sooner we need a Big Big place to hold everyone)! The weather was not in our favor for the beach, and a lot of people could'nt make it for different reasons, so no worry about not making it!

Sharon Simons (Hettinger)

My aunt is involved with her high school reunion group...and they have 'the golden R' [rockford]--

If niles chose to do it, maybe the Golden Vikings?

At any rate, this is reserved for 50th anniversary classes--all 50 yr anniversaries and longer of graduation (say 1960, 1955, 1957, 1948)--all would be invited to the GOLDEN VIKINGS reunion...

Until that time, each classes maintains its individuality...and has their own parties/reunion gatherings...

Just to let you know what other places do... At this point, there are/were so many who attend the last one, it would be great (imnsho) to continue meeting independently as a class until we become so small ... or hit the 50 year mark!

My $.02.

Katherine Holloway

So JL, What was the title of that last book you wrote?

Jim Lanier

I believe you're referring to "The Last Book You'll Need To Read," which the publishers insisted I change to "The Bizarre Bazaar and Other Tales Which Didn't Necessarily Need to Be Told," which the editor changed to "I Edited This Book, and All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt," which was cancelled under pressure from the ASATJ, the American Society Against T-shirt Jokes.

No, seriously... when did you know me to be serious?? The book ain't out yet, I've been putting together the website which will funnel cyberpeeps into commerciality, according to my marketing person, who will remain penniless. Did I mention my manager, my personal consultant, my personal insultant, my middle man and my Skimmer Off the Topper? They're my new posse! Once they get theirs, ain't no way in infinity I'll get mine!
