What a Reunion!!! Whew! I can`t begin to tell you how much fun I had seeing All of you! And Rita has it pegged…after so many years, I actually made a few friends who weren`t in my circle at school…..for instance, how many of you know Bill Dixon gets paid to be a bad guy? Yep, he wraps a towel around his head, all in the name of teaching our young soldiers to protect our country…..He could`ve told me more, but it`s all hush-hush! I met lawyers,doctors,computer nerds,business owners,pilots,Contractors,(did I mention Lawers?), Mommy`s & Dad`s(BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN!!!)and a few realestate moguls! OH! And one really good-lookin`Massage Therapist! My only regret was not having enough time to talk with everyone as long as I`d have liked too. For the local classmates, I figured the chances of running into you are a bit greater than seeing our traveling Indians! That is sad, if you think about it, as even though we live within a few miles of each other, how often do we get a chance to hang out!?!? Speaking of which, does everyone know that homecoming is next Fri…the last home game?
There seems to be an interest in the wind to have a Beach Party, within the next month, for a job well done. I have access to a Beach-house that would be perfect…if you are interested, please contact me personally, and I`ll give you particulars. It`s on the intracoastal(calm water), has a nice dock I built with a 36X16 upper-deck(awesome sunsets) with dock-slips for 10+ boats. Navarre public boat-launch is but 8/9 minutes away. I know we`ll have a couple jet-skis there, and more are welcome. Since it`s a private home, I was thinking a Bonfire might be nice in the evening? The tent would be up, and there are a couple grills. Then there is the matter of a bunch of beer I need finished off!!
One last time, I`d like to thank Mitzi for just being awesome! Somehow, with her business, managing a home and being a Mom, she found the time to polish all the rough edges for the Reunion! If I told you how many hours she put into your Reunion, you would think I was kidding. On reflection, you`d realize that I`m not, and see how truly dedicated she is to our class. Little did she know when she offered her help in the beginning what was in store!!!! Hah!!! Let`s not forget her family….Jeff and lovely Jessica(how `bout that voice!) helped stuff bags, called classmates, and helped with design for the Reunion! Even 11 yr old Michael got to stay-up late a few nights stuffing bags! A gentle young man who, if he ever figures out how big he is gonna be, could lead Choctaw to a State Title in football! Thanks to them all from the Class!!!!!
With all the wordy classmates we have, I am surprised the Blog isn`t getting more use!!! Dale is working on making something special here on the site, where classmates can download pictures, as well as copy them onto their computer!
David is working on finishing the DVD to mail to the classmates. We are awaiting your Reunion Pictures….PLEASE be prompt with that….They are to be sent to David Lambert at the address listed here. WE ARE COUNTING ON YOU for these pictures!
Thank you all for coming! I can say with certainty, that I will never have so many sing Happy B`day again…Thank you!!!!
Sincerely,
Les Rollo Fagan rollomon@yahoo.com
