REUNION DAY FOR CLASSES OF 1958

     Tommorrow (Thursday) is a big day for the class of 1958. Their long awaited 80th birthday celebration  will take place at the Herman Park Pavilion, 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m..

     Eleven classmates from BHS and two from BSH have indicated, in advance, they plan to attend but that doesn't mean others can't make a late decision.

     On hand for sure will be Howard Swain, George Eckstein, Jerry Wright, Loren Vogler, Tom Pestotnik, Pauline Bergloff Halupnick, Barry Wills, Jolene Sturtz Tate, Janice Springer Messinbrink, Joyce Springer Appenzeller, Delores Headley Miller, Loren Frazier and Pat Lacey Frazier. 

     By the way, remember we reported a couple editions ago that an 80th birthday card shower was planned for Priscilla Thomsen who lives in Lake City. It was hoped that at least 80 cards would be received but that was surpassed with 98 received at last report.

     We understand she really appreciated reading the many cards and comments contained.
