You Might Be Gone

But Not Forgotton


Since our 40th reunion in 2008, we have added 11 classmates to our "In Memory Of" list for a total of 43.  A few of them passed before 2008, but weren't added until later.  If you become aware of the passing of any classmates, please email one of the reunion committee members and let us know.  This is a current list as of September 9, 2013.  Those added since the last reunion are in bold letters.  If you know the year of their passing, feel free to post.  Terry D has created a board with those listed below, along with any obituaries we have located.  It will be on display at the 45TH reunion.  If there is a * in front of their name, we have an obituary.  If you happen to have one for any of the other 13, please email it to Terry D or Elaine (Neffy).  (the ? at the end of a couple of them are dates I couldn't verify for certain).

Music-Don't You Forget About Me


We have had several requests for a place to talk about music. One of our classmates...Jim Clements has been entertaining a small group of us by sharing u-tubes and comments for the last 4 1/2 years. Now we'll let him put some of them here.  Please chime in with your comments and memories or add u-tubes of your own.  Between Jim and Marshall and other classmates with a love of music and a musical background it will be fun to see the diversity in musical tastes.  

Music...especially " our " music had such an impact on our generation.  In this section feel free to post or chat about what memories a special song brings to mind. I'll start with the one Jim sent tonight....and the comment he made.  

" Still the ultimate high school kids coming of age movie. As for the song title, I'm sure EVERY senior who ever walked out of his/her high school or college on the very last day, hopes those words ring true !!!!   "     Jim Clements
