 1969 Mighty Mustangs |
1970 Mighty Mustangs |
1971 Mighty Mustangs |
 Frank
Trimm ('69) and his lovely wife, Brenda Dugger ('71). Frank is doing
great a couple of years after his heart surgery. His pacemaker is doing
well, he just has to stay away from microwave ovens!
|
 Carol Lipsey ('70) and her husband, Richard Keith. Once again, Carol and Richard did a fantastic job heading up the decorations committee. We couldn't and I wouldn't do these reunions without them. |
 Harry
Lindgren ('70) and his wife, Cindy, trip the light fantastic. That
means they are dancing, for those unfamiliar with the poetic term. Do
they look passionate for one another or what!! Poster kids for
horniness!
|
 Finally, a photo of the man who made all of this possible, Karl Ritter ('71). Karl is so laid back, I swear his blood pressure is like 12/4. As I write this, he is headed for europe to goof off and have some fun. |
 Donna
Stephens ('70) and I tear up the dance floor. There's that damn bald
spot, again. Earl Scheib promised me that the hair paint would last all
weekend. At every reunion, Donna and Monna give me hugs that I cherish!
|
 Would you believe that our former principal, Mr. Terry McGuire is OLDER than Bruce Hathaway!! McGuire is 71 years old. Dick Clark wants to know his secret!! I have cheese that looks older than he does! |
 Mason Wright ('70 and Rusty Atkins ('70) are really enjoying themselves. In fact, if it wasn't for this photo the two of them would have no idea that they had even been at the reunion . These guys are the party-masters!! |
 Danny Padron ('69), my buddy, my friend, my sort of brother-in-law by proxy and my reunion cohort begins the Saturday night activities with a welcoming speech. |
 Mr. McGuire presented me a special John Jay plaque that had been given to him many, many, many, many, many, many years ago. I hold it high, like an Oscar award, to show everyone. When I got a standing ovation from classmates, I cried. I am so humbled by everyone's kindness and caring. |
 This is my sister, Linda DuPriest ('71) at the 8th/9th grade dance at the base NCO club in Brindisi, Italy. That's her boyfriend, Clarence "Buddy" Williams. He had the longest hair in school. I've been working on a reunion for kids in that class! It never ends for me. |
