I did not know Marilyn very well - our short, dark-haired friends seemed to keep me confused. Whoever knew her better, please send in somd comments, reflections, memories. I would love to get to know her, even if it is posthumously. To picture her, I opened our senior yearbook to page 161 to see her photo ... taken in a cemetery. That is eerie!

Even tonight I don't have the luxury of looking over what has been added, since I have an extremely important 'if-I-don't-do-it-soon-it-will-be-a-belated' birthday gift to wrap off and get in the mail tomorrow. Hope to get back to you soon with more solid comments. Til then - xo Joanie P.S. I've been sending some '68 Reunion photos (that hubby Joe took, which turned out really great!) to some of my '68 chums who were unable to attend, along with the photo list from Wells of who's who. Hoping to send off a few more. Enthusiasm was really high, when I did some of my calling to encourage classmates to attend. So many have mentioned they would like to attend our 45th!! Let's keep that in mind and send out notices to free up calendars for the last weekend in May, first weekend in June of 2013 - unless Wells already has a set date for that Reunion Weekend. This is WAY too much fun for any interested classmate to miss, and we should make it clear to them!! - Joanie Hi, Carroll -

Wonderful memories to be kept forever ... which is practical, considering our memories will be increasingly challenged over future years. Why is it that anyone can buy memory to add to the home computer, but we can't implant one between our ears. I don't get it! Love to you all - Joanie Barb -
