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”

JULY GET-TOGETHER

July 11, CLASSMATES AND SPOUSES RETURN TO HOSS'S FOR THE MONTHLY GET-TOGETHER. It was nice to have Jim & Gloria (Nelson) Nedimyer, from New York join us this month while they are staying at Lake Raystown during the summer months.
Jenny did a presentation on, "What is really important in life?"
Using a mayonnaise jar that represents your life. Filling the jar with golf balls that represents the most important thing in every one's life. (family, friends, god, health, passions, spouse) Then pebbles were added that represents bank account, car, career, church, house and job. Then sand was added to the jar, representing the things that we own that we can do without. The mayonnaise jar looked full but 2 cups of liquid was added. The observation showed that no matter how full your life maybe you still have room to share a cup of coffee, tea, coke, or beer with a friend.
