I think this was the best reunion yet!  We had a nice turnout and including the classes of '70 and '72 made it even better.  I want to thank everyone who came this year and hope to see you all - and more - the next time.

I also want to thank the other class officers - Tim, Sally, John Mc, and John P along with Donna and Stan for their advice and counsel.   

 And thanks also goes to Donna and Karen.  Donna's always ready to do anything asked.  She greeted everyone at the door and made all the table decorations at no cost to the class, I might add.  Karen made the cookies - both her famous pumpkin cookies and the too-pretty-to-eat decorated class cookies also at no cost to us (check out the photo).

Thank-you Mike Grimes and Patty Pahr for "herding us" together for the group photos. Some of us might like to have a retake and I've include a few versions on the photos page .

Brandy Skelton from Busy Bee Catering prepared a great simple buffet.  A big thanks to her for being so easy to work with and for giving us a bit of a discount!

Lastly but not least, thanks to my lovely wife Dora for her advice - very freely given - and for keeping me straight as we worked to make this event happen.

See you at the next one in 2031! - TJ

Please let me know if you have any questions about the accounting. John P - Thanks for your review and comments!
