Well it's done.  I have downloaded all the individual pictures from our '61 Classicum.  Many classmates didnt' make it into the senior album so I used the Jr. one where they were available.  I don't claim to be 100% accurate so if you find errors, let me know and I will correct it if I can.  Looking forward to the 50th reunion.

Great website.  I'm glad someone kept up with technology.  Am planning to attend reunion and I've been trying to keep in touch with old (and I do mean old) classmates that I see now and then.   Lee

Nila Bunderson (Dayton)

Thanks to all of you who have worked so long to put this 50th party together. The web site is fantastic.  It is so nice to read the profiles of our classmates and read the amazing lives they have lived.   Hope to see you at the reunion, I'm really looking forward to visiting with you all. 

Oh, a point of thought regarding the Union Station.  I have attended a number of dinners there and other large events at the Union Station.  There is one flaw about the the Union Station.  It is very, very noisy with a large group of people especially for dinners.  One has a hard time hearing people at your own table.  I think it's because of the high ceiling.  Perhaps by now they have made some adjustments for the noise.

Thanks Nila,  That's good info.  We need to see if there is anything we can do about it.

Wynn,  I tried to put Jim Whited's email address jnawhited@wrecwireless.coop into the invite block and it won't accept it.  Probably because of the coop on the end.  I know it's the right one but our site is limited to 3 charactes.  Is there some admin function to change that.

 NOT ALL RETIRED CLASSMATES HAVE TIME ON THEIR HANDS....WE NEVER SEEM TO HAVE QUIET EVENINGS OR DAYS.  WE LEAVE EARLY, GO TO EVENTS, MEETINGS, ETC. AND USUALLY GET HOME IN TIME FOR THE NEWS.  WE ARE BUSY WITH 17 GRANDCHILDREN WHO ALL ARE IN MORE THAN ONE SPORT OR DANCING.  THAT ADDS UP TO MUCH DRIVING AND FIGURING IF WE HAVE SEEN ALL OF THEM AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER

Even though I'll only be there for the Fri. events - I hope to see many, many of you.  Those who have worked on the reunion - kudos to all!  You would know that our class would be able to plan a party!!!!! Looking forward to the party!  And I hate having to miss even part of the party! Judy Barkley (Grossenbach)

I am so impressed with all the thought, planning and effort of the committee.  Everything is so "BIG" and wonderful.  The web site is marvelous.  I would like to see it continue for some time to come.  THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!  I AM SO PROUD TO BE A MEMBER OF THIS OUTSTANDING OHS CLASS OF 1961.

Looking forward to this weekend, Cathie Carter Soutas

Peggy Leininger (Stowe)

I just wanted to say how great the Saturday night event was.  It was fantastic!  It was so fun to see so many classmates I have not seen for years.  Some I recognized right away and thank goodness for a name tag too, as it helped so much.  Thanks to all the members of the committee.  All the planning and organizing this reunion was spectacular.   If all the other events were as successful as Saturday night it was a huge success.  I shared this morning with a fellow about the web site and Wynn, you absolutely did an amazing job. I felt badly that we had to leave before the program was over.  My husband was not feeling well.  We were enjoying it so much and laughed and laughed.   I could have stayed for many more hours getting reacquainted.  Thanks again!  Peggy Leininger Stowe

Hi, my dear OHS friends!

I've been trying to keep up with you at the great Reunion through delightful photos and accurate and lively accounts of the event.  I feel like being with you, but, honestly, I do not recognize anyone of you!!!  I must have missed such a great occasion of meeting and making a sort of new acquaintances to remember from now on.  Well, next time, maybe in 5 hears, when my 'country of the rising sun' is better off, I may be able to join you.  I really look forward to it. That, I happened to dream, could take place in the recovered Tohoku, Japan.  Could it?

About the website.  What a terrific communication tool you established, especially for someone who couldn't just step out of the front door and walk down a block or two to knock on the door of dear old frineds.  Advanced technology could do something so very wonderful.

I've ordered a DVD as a remembrance of this event, which even though I couldn't attend in person, means a lot just the same.  I'm grateful and proud to be counted as one of you Tigers. The donation I made for the reconstruction of OHS will signify my appreciation and hope for the future development.

May you all have happy and healthy life and live long until the next Reunion which I may be able to attend, okay?  Okay.  Thank you.

Yukko

OHS 51st. Thanks so much Madeline Pappas Coleman for making the evening such a wonderful, memorable event. You worked so hard to make it an awesome get together. It was great to see folks that I had not seen for 21 years.

I noticed on Lynda's contact that her area code was incorrect.  She's a fun lady and has a great Husband too.

Just a small memory about Kent:  a group of us were running on Washington Blvd getting ready for a Track Meet at Washington Jr High, and I got a little too close to Kent trying to take the lead, and he said "Move over Ort or I'll run over ya"

I think I made the right Choice!

Kent was always friendly to me when I would see at the Base, and he would ask with a big grin on his face

"how's that cute little Sister of your's"?

Kent is one of the greatest hard workers I have ever met!  He will be missed.

Ron Hill

Sorry to hear of Ron's passing. I always remember him as smiling , good natured  claasmate and good football player. I do not much of Ron's life after Odgen High School but it seems he had a good life. My thoughts go out to his family and wish them the best
