If you like any of the photo's you can download them or email them to friends/classmates that could not make our event.  To view:  Cut and paste these links (one at a time) into your browser window.
It should work, since we tested it here first before posting!

As we get new photo's we will post the links in the Blog.

End of Summer Event: Sept 9th at The Lake House in Creve Coeur Lake

If you still have a "reunion buzz" and you remember the velvet voice of Jim Zimmer you have one last opportunity to get together with classmates who graduated from 1963 - 1968 by booking a reservation  at The Lake House located in Creve Coeur Lake.

No advance payment is required but reservations are a must due to limited space.  To make reservations call the Lake House at 314-576-7200.  Bill Boland (class of 65) and Carol Sue Shantz Roedder (class of 66) are coordinating the event.  If you need their email, contact us through the blog and we will send you their email address. (Sorry, I can't publish other peoples email address, less they get spammed to death!)

Last but not least, we have posted another batch of reunion photo's.  Regrettably the photographer is already losing his short term memory and could not ID people int he photo's, but we are told that the following people are in the photo's:  Rob Ciampoli, Sue Lynch(Day), Andy Day, Sherzer/Shimamoto; Trudy Prenavo (Bowles) ; Bev and Rich Schaefer, Carol Roedder, Charlie Scott, Diane Winterer Blumfeld,  Debbie Lane; Pat Bowolak, Brenda Nelson Sydlowski, Bob Schmidt, Jeff McClellan, Bob Rogger, Dave Shaw, Joe Rumbolo; Mike Willis; Lou Galloway; Dennis Hayashi, John and Cheryl(Miller)  Heddell; Gary Tash; Frank Zilm, Dan Parker, Gary Arnold, Doug Raney, Phyllis Rice Townsend, Brian Richardson, Melinda Soroka (Welker), Nancy Roberst (Palazzollo), Pat Gorsuch, Lackland Bloom.

Yes, there are still people missing from photo's so if you have anyone not mentioned here, get those photo's in so we can publish them.

In the meantime, if Hurricane Irene does not hurt us too badly for those of us living in its path, we will be back. Unless there is another earthquake!

Tht 45th Reunion Is History.....but

Oh, what a night

Late December (July) back in 63 (2011)

What a very special time for me

As I remember, what a night!

The party may be over, but the emails keep coming in. Here are a few comments from your classmates who could attend and those that missed it.

Mike and I had so much fun. We're sorry that we had to leave early, but Mike had to usher at the early service at our church. I hope for the 50th we'll have more classmates come in from out of town. Linda Pilliard Bickle

The event was a total success, and I enjoyed the evening very much. I wanted to thank you, in particular, for being such a superb contact person and information "reporter" for the entire group. I know you and other members of your fine committee have dedicated a lot of time and effort to making it a night to remember. . . in particular, it is hard to believe you made $20 go so far for so many. For real! $20 for an entire night of open bar and some very tasty food, as well as great music and a nice venue (the dance floor was the biggest I've seen and very smooth for dancing) -- amazing!! I will look forward to the 50th anniversary. Winnie (Wagner) Stufflebam

Please let the whole committee know that my husband Jim and I thought the reunion was great. After 40 years of marriage, even though we only see one couple regularly, he actually knows some of my classmates. Everything was great; venue, food, music; wish I had gotten there on time and stayed til the end. It was great; thanks so much for organizing it. And let me know if anyone wants to come to the gulf (AL); we have some great condos and would love to show you around. Carla Henke

And a two emails from classmates that could not attend:

Dear Dennis and Friends from '66,

A big hello from Texas to all of you! I'm with you in spirit tonight even though I can't be there in person. My husband and I live in a suburb of Houston and have been here over 35 years. We have two grown children, and I wish all of us could be there with you for me to 'show you off' to them and 'show them off' to you. God has blessed us. My parents moved here eventually, and my husband's family still lives in Granite City, Illinois. I wish the reunion timing had matched up with one of our opportunities to come up and visit them. Maybe next time!

I've enjoyed looking at so many of the pictures you have posted. Thanks for that. I wish I could have sat there with you in the photos, and especially in the pictures of the Dewey School group. So many dear faces. It doesn't matter how many years have passed - isn't it wonderful that we can look at the pictures and even though the faces are a little bit older, we can still see the young, fresh, real core persons who are still there!! That's the truth, and it's a joy.

Hug each other for me, remember me. I remember you all with great pleasure and thankfulness for everything we shared. Let me hear from any of you. I'd love it.

Best wishes for a tremendous reunion, and lots of love,

Danette Key Lawson

Finally: here is a link where we will be posting up any and all photo's that were sent into the committee. And I am pretty sure that you can post them up directly since this is a group photo gallery. But if you can't just send them to any committee member and they will forward to me.
