Thanks so much, Robert, for the update on Gary Jorden.  Happy to hear he's improving.  Recovering from those injuries takes time.  Grateful he's getting PT and nice he has a beauty to help him laugh

Jenny Taylor, can you trace Laura Bowers?  She married Ronnie Matelski and has two children when I lost touch in 1975.  Ronnie worked for Aramco and they lived in Saudi Arabia at that time.

So very sorry to hear this news. Such a wonderful person - she always had a smile for everyone. I know she will be missed by our class, the group that does all the work on the reunions, her many friends, coworkers and beloved family.

So sorry to hear about Barbara. 
I had the honor to be part of her life 
not only in high school but working with her
In setting up our reunions for over 30 years.
I will miss her smile and how she would get after 
me on setting up the reunions. 
my prayers and blessings go out to Barbara 
and her family.

I was sorry to see this sad news. Barbara was a special, long time friend. She was always sweet, caring, and thoughtful, and helpful in planning the many reunions and get togethers we've had through the years. She will be greatly missed, but after not being well for a considerable time, she is at peace. Thanks for the great memories, Barbara! Blessings to you and your family🙏❤️

I just wanted you folks to know that Gary Jorden passed away yesterday. He never recovered from the fall at our last class reunion. I don't have any information further than that at this time. 

People have many friends during their life but only a few are true friends. Gary was one of these.

Our prayers go out to Gary's family.

May gods blessing be with Marilyn and the family

during this time.

Hi Everyone,  Just want to say hi to everyone.  I have been helping Paige with many things since Richard's unexpected death. She really appreciated everyone who came to the memorial for him.  She is having  problems with her computer, so I am going to try and help with that today.  Hope everyone is staying warm!
