Wish we had had this sooner... then I would not have lost so much. These comments are helping me catch up. Without this I would not have known that Tom Gnoza (RIP) was the son of a little girl I baby sat. Mary Lou DeMEYER ('59) lived across the street (Symons) from me and I baby sat her, her sister and brother when her parents and uncle played music for dances. her family were all into music. -Shannon CRAIG Hightower ('50) **************************************************************** **************************************************************** >>From: Jim HAMILTON ('63) Re: Blogging on an iPad Anyone out there have any experience writing a blog on an iPad?

I remember this like it was yesterday. In kindergarten he had Mrs. Horning and I had Mrs. LeClaire. Mrs. Horning on whosever's BD it was drew a picture of a cake with the honoree's color choices on a big sheet of butcher paper and then gave it to the honoree after singing happy birthday. I was invited from next door in Mrs. LeClaire's class to have a picture made for me, too. No, this is not a senior moment as we turn 65 come November. -Betti AVANT ('69) ~ from sunny (for the most part) Richland **************************************************************** **************************************************************** Death Notice from: Dan HAGGARD ('57) >>Re: Sandra DENBERGER Koontz ('57-RIP) It is with a heavy heart that I relate the passing of another '57 classmate.
