Here`s wishing you all a Safe & Warm Happy Holiday! There are some classmates who are serving our Country and also some whose health prevents them from traveling….Best wishes to those who can`t be home with their familys and loved ones.  I hope everyone will take a moment to think of those less fortunate.

Hey Les!  Yep, I got mine!  Thanks to everyone who put it together.  I’ve been able to watch most of the DVD(s) and I thoroughly enjoyed them!  I especially enjoyed the band footage.  It’s too bad we didn’t have any video from the Tampa Bay game since that was our last performance together and Mr. Jones’ last one too.  Anyway, I hope to make the next reunion.  I did notice in the Directory that my address was excluded and the email address listed must belong to someone else.  My info for anyone interested is:  846 Lincoln Dr, Washington Court House, OH  43160  (FERGUAMF@YAHOO.COM).  Anyway, thanks again and keep in touch!

I`m guessing everyone rec`d their DVD`s, as I`ve not heard anything otherwise?

Hey Les,

I found an earlier post that you were having a problem locating me. I have been in the Miami/Fl. keys area since 1986. I wish I could have made this reunion, I gues I will have to settle for the 30 year. I am a single dad raising to lovely children, Rebecca 14 and John Michael 8. I was a State Trooper for almost 14 years and I am know with the Miami-Dade Police Department (3,600 officers) working in a counter terrorist unit. The work is exciting and theres allot to do especially with the Keys 25 minutes away, but I miss home. The value system here is lacking and you have to be real hands on with the kids. The fallen indians was very sobering, they will always be kids in my memories.

Well The DVD`s are ready to mail out….If you haven`t received them by the second Tues in Dec (the 12th), give me a holler and we`ll figure it out.  I am told we need to “stomp” some more labels….David Lambert assures me this will not damage the DVD…..shows ya what I know about that fragile-looking circle. A short list of Kudos is needed here….if you have an opportunity, please send out your thanks to : David Lambert, Mitzi Risher-Roth and daughter Jessica, Lisa Adams, John Price, John Guzalak & Bill Dixon.  ALL these Indians made the DVD happen!!!!   I`d like to send a HUGE Big Green Thank-you to David for the innumerous hours he put into the slide-show you`ll be receiving.  This is of course mostly from those classmates who actually remembered to TAKE pictures and SEND them into us. (Thank You Too!) For you others….you might consider putting a digital-camera on your X-mas list!!!

 There will be a li`l something extra in your packages…consider it a X-mas gift from The Reunion Committee…..THANK YOU John & John (J2)….I think you`ll find that this and David`s slide-show are the final touches to a wonderful Reunion!!!

Thank You,

Les Rollo

Does anyone read this?  Is ANYONE interested in the DVD`s?  Pictures of the Reunion?  `Tell ya what, if I can get a few people to show me they read this Blogamabob, I`ll send them out this weekend………waiting………………..LOL

Les

Ok, just wondering here… but just because we had a 25th Class Reunion doesn’t mean that people can stop putting posts on the Blog! Am I the only one who is noticing this, Les? I guess I am one of the other 3 that reads the Blog. Hope EVERYONE out there is doing well! Happy Turkey Day to all you TURKEYS out there…Ha! (j/k) God Bless All of you and take care! Keep in touch!

L8r,

Hey Les!  Thanks for the update.  I guess I’m one of the “three”.  I was starting to wonder when the stuff was going to be mailed out.  I check the website often.  I’ve really enjoyed it.  Thanks to all who have worked on it etc!  I miss you guys.  It sure is getting cold up here in Ohio.  Florida is sounding really good right now.  Did you guys end up having a “post” reunion get together?  Anyway, thanks again.  Take care everybody!

Sounded like the attendance was good and everyone had a good time.  Unfortunately, I was also unable to attend due to a new job and very little vacation time built up yet.   I decided to retire from the AF after 20 years in the B-52 and see if I could make enough to send my kids to college (Scott 18 and Anna Kate 14).  I was impressed with the number of folks that where on the “planning to attend” list and was sorry I couldn’t make it.  I looked at the “then” pictures and it took me back to taking a lot of them for the yearbook and the fun times we all had staging some of the photos (Clark Harju and Karen Cofer pretending to do homework, Karen probably did, but I don’t remember Clark ever doing any).  I have not been the best with keeping up with folks and its been since high school for most, I hope to re-establish some and catch up on the news.   I hope everyone got home safe and I plan to attend the 30^th in 2011.  My email is Dcrawfordbc@aol.com or Smdpslost@yahoo.com.
