CLASSMATES MEET IN MAY

Monday evening May 11, Johnny Moffa and wife Bonnie came up from Delaware to join the group at Hoss's. That was a surprise to us all. John (Kenny) Wagner and wife Carol joined us for the first time this year. It is great to get together and reminisce about our school days and how times have changed. A total of 38 had a great time with our Wrinkle Therapy session as we laughed at the jokes that were told. We sang Happy Birthday to Connie Edmiston Isenberg while the waitress presented her with a small birthday cake.
Our high school English teacher Mr. Howard Walker, age 84 passed away May 14, after having some heart problems recently. The class of '62 thought a lot of Mr. Walker that we dedicated our year book to him. Ruth Miller and Jenny Showalter representing the Class of '62 attended the Memorial Service held for him.
The class group will not be meeting in June for dinner at Hoss's. We will be boarding a Bollman Tour bus traveling to Alexandria, VA to board a dinner cruise ship and cruise down the Potomac River to take in the historial sights of Washington, DC.
