Sounds wonderful Ken. I think it's great you attend these events every year.
My mom had a reunion scheduled this weekend. Saline HS, Class of 1948. There were only about 25 in the entire class, and that number is greatly reduced.
My brother, his son and I drove out last night to meet with Luke Schaible, one of her classmates who is hosting the event this year. He is a farmer who still farms 1500 acres. We took out old pictures, yearbooks and other items from my mom's files, and had a great visit with him and his wife. I think he was pleased that we visited and were interested in his recollections of his High School years.
BTW, the picture of my mom that I posted was, I believe, her senior picture.
Treasure your friendships with those you went to school with. To some, the ties may not have been that important back at graduation, but they increase in importance with the passing years, IMO. |
