WELCOME to the B-A Class of ‘62

Class Motto: Better Always Higher Still

Graduating Class

May 31, 1962, Ninety-six classmates from the Class of ’62 graduated. Our vision of the future was shaped by plans for the following year. With thoughts of higher education, the armed forces and impending engagements, who could think any further ahead? The freedoms on the other side of the school walls consumed our days and filled our dreams.
When we started our new journey after graduation we were called "the graduates of the Class of ’62". We have all suffered from disappointments, illnesses, and loss of loved ones. We have also shared the joys of friendships, job promotions, raising families, and enjoying grandchildren.
We all remember how September 11, 2001, changed many of our lives. Our sense of security had been shattered, but as Americans we pulled together and stood tall and supported our great nation and moved forward.
Now we have acquired a new title, “Senior Citizens.” As age steals away the years, we are faced with making the decision to retire or continue to work. Regardless what we choose, the Bellwood-Antis Class of ’62, are survivors.
As we continue our journey through the “Golden Years,” we will enjoy each new day as it was our last. We will cherish every moment spent with family and friends and enjoy the journey as long as it last.

“Better Always Higher Still”

TRICK & TREAT FUN

October 12th Get together, month for tricks and treats. The group entered their names in the drawing for the Halloween Mystery Gift Bag. Ruth Conrad Miller was the lucking winner. She was now the proud owner of a black rat and five gray mice. Bob Hostler won the jar of candy corn, guessing the number of pieces in the jar. We had fun as we played Halloween Trivia.
We celebrated the birthdays of Ruth Conrad Miller, Bob Himes, and Jerome Miller. Hoss's waiters and waitresses sang their birthday theme song and presented them with individual birthday cakes to take home.
Jenny also shared joy with the group about Dick and Nancy Wertz's 25th Wedding Anniversary gift of twin grandsons born on September 28th. (Caleb and Lucas)
A sadder note, Lucille Hall Lane is back in the Altoona Hospital and not doing well. Keep her in your prayers.
The group decided that we will take up a donation for the CHRISTMAS CAROL FOUNDATION from classmates of '62. Also, we will be bringing can goods to November's Get together for the BELLWOOD FOOD SHARE PROGRAM showing our thanks for what we have.
If you are bored from staying home all the time, meet us at Hoss's for a fun evening. Monday, Noverber 9th at 6:00.
