This is a message from one of our old teachers, Joan Adaskin, upon receiving her invitation: I cannot remember if I told you I had a stroke on Jan. 23, 2008 and my family brought me to Boston for rehab. I will live in the Boston area and sell my condo in SD; therefore I cannot make the reunion. Joan Adaskin

I won't be able to make it to the reunion, but for all of you who are in the Med this summer (Rick Beede, Gary Winstead and the crazy readhead...doesn't she have a name?) or who have promised themselves a trip to Greece someday(Mayson), I am on the island of Mykonos. My shop is BAG on Mitropoleos Street.There are no street signs or numbers in this maze of tiny alleys , but it is on the " main " street. Jill found me a few years back. We are open 7 days a week, all day long, during the summer. Drop in to say hello and for any information on the best places to dine , wine and swim! 

hey Susan,yep her name is Maggie,but ever since she shot my truck.. the neighbours refer to her as The Crazy Redhead.will check as time gets closer, we will spend most of july in Italy and plan to finish the first week or so of Septemer in Nicosia Cyprus.We might surprise you...

Many thanks to the Reunion Committee for all their hard work for our successful 40th Reunion!  As usual, John Little was so FUNNY and entertaining as our emcee.  The highlight of  the "questionairre" segment was Ralph Taylor's tribute to his lovely wife.  I still can't believe it has been 40 years; everyone looks wonderful.  Hope everyone makes many more good memories with their loved ones,Cindy and Jim Barwick (Penick)    

I had a great time at the Reunion and the Picnic. Thnaks to the committee for all your work to put on some top notch events.I was afraid I would not recognize people but was able to, easily. Everyone looked very good.I had a special heart connection with Bobby Lasbury--thanks for sharing your songs; and Scott Foster--thanks you too for sharing yoru spiritual journey.Looking forward to seeing people again and staying in touch.Love to you all.

A huge thanks to our reunion committee for a wonderful reunion Sat. night.  The night just wasn't long enough to really take in all your work with all the details, and talk to all the people.  But, thanks again for everything each of you did in making the night such a memorable event.  I have to do some talking in order to keep my "Tiki".Great gifts, great food, great decor, great fun, great planning.  Now, take a breath!!!  I hope each of you also enjoyed the night.  Have a wonderful summer.  I think I heard the next will be the 45th.  I'll will look forward to it too.Thanks again,Susan

Thank you Snapper & Joanne Pierson for your Ferry Landing Level Sponsorship!! Only five months away!!

I sure do wish I can come-I coordiante an event that takes about 10 months of my year and it happens the weekend after reunion so the timing is not good for me. Dolng what I do professionally I appreciate all that the committee is doing to make the reunion happen. It is a lot of work! Bravo!

It's the morning after (the Sat Nite Reunion), thanks for the memories and reconnections.  Thanks to Jane Turnipseed for keeping me in touch during your senior year when I was at prep school in Deerfield, MA. I therefore had no entry in the '68 yearbook, which I regret ... not my biggest regret, I regret to say.  Cheryl Winslow should have been feted as Valedectorian, if for no other reason than to get Jerry Fledderjohn's goat.  She also was very gracious and kind to me and to my fiancee Kathryn Andrews, who had a remarkably good time, due to the friendliness of Jonde Northcutt, Robin Keehn, Gwen O'Toole, Pam Hawkins, Loc Vetter, Tom Lehman, Jerry F, Rick Beede, Ron & Kathy Clark, Cindy Pennick, Joe Ingalls (I know, hard to believe), Mayson Hwa, Betsy Lear, Curt Oliver, John and Diana Little, Marilyn Stockdale, Mimi, and several other noteables that my failing memory (I know there is some name for that) will not bring up right now.

My mind was racing after the event last night, I couldn't believe how everyone was the same, even though everything has changed!My poetic sense took over, thoughts racing that needed to put down in writing.We are but dawning starsShining brightly in the mornFading behind the sun and cloudsAwaiting a new day rebornThe morning star shines brightlybefore the days awakensSoon weathered by sun, hidden by cloudsA hopeful light forsakenA fight to keep itself burningnot knowing how to winTo shine brightly as it once didBefore the days beginI see the faces weathered Oh!, how could it be? When seeing eyes that shine so brightlyIs my realityThe mind's eye tells the truthSeeing yourself as you wereDon't be fooled by sun and cloudsThat YOU were never thereThe morning star's, the constantEverything changes, Everyone the sameNo up and downs can eliminate YOUIn life's chute's and ladder's gameBehind the eyes, I see life's wonderA constant shining starNo dimming light will ever changeYou were, who you are

Way to go Rick Beede!!! Thanks for your support and help with this 40 year old party!! Time is flying and it won't be long before we all meet again!!

To jog my memory I found my 68 Yearbook last night...and there was NOT one signiture/picture/notes or goofy words. Not one! Did I have no friends? Was I too shy? Was I protesting...what! .... so lame. So...can i bring my yearbook and will anyone sign it! :-)Rockin' RobinBatmans FiendRobin Red Breast (I hated that one)

OLD SURF DOGS RULE. STILL MISSING MR. DAVIS CLASS ON TRAVELS TO ANCIENT GREECE. ALSO WRITING ESSAYS IN ENGLISH CLASS W/ MR BURTON & NO MATTER HOW BAD IT WAS I ALWAYS GOT A'S (FOR EFFORT...I THINK). WHERE'S MY YEAR BOOK SO I CAN REMEMBER MORE NAMES? THANKS FOR EFFORT GUYS....MANY ALOHAS KEEP THE FAITH, KEITH ROBBIE ROBERTSON

Hi everyone,It is really fun reading all the entries.  I was hoping to see more names on the list of attendees.  If you know Tom Darcy's email - get on him.  On second thought, here it is so we can all get on him.tdarc@aol.comHe might kill me but...If I don't show up at the reunion you'll know what happened.  We are supposed to being seeing him the weekend of June 14th.I would do the same for Jim Haught, but I don't have his email.  Someone must know his whereabouts.  Get on Tom, he used to know how to get in touch with him.  By the way, my memory has become relative nonexistent it seems.  Did we have a 30th reunion?  To everyone who sent in comical quips, thanks.  I can't pull those off so I'm always glad to others.  Reunion Committee, thanks for all you are doing to get this up and going.  Have you remembered to dial up great weather?  Living in Camarillo, I'm used to pretty great weather all year long, without much of the heavy stuff in the air that always used to wreck whatever I had tried to do with my hair that morning.  Now, it's gray, so who cares - no one looks anymore.  Looking forward to seeing you.  Susan

Lot's of thanks to Snapper for your Tiki sponsorship! It's getting close to party time!!

Wow, when it rains, it pours!  Not only are we having our fabulous 40th on the 5th & 6th of July, but Sacred Heart School is having its 60th Jubilee on Sunday, July 6th also!  I counted 17 of us in the yearbook from Sacred Heart, and man, do we have stories to tell!  There is a celebration Mass at 11AM (no, Monsignor Purcell will not be there) and an Open House at the school from 12 - 2.  And YES, our 8th grade graduation picture is still on the wall!  Stop by to see how the old place looks - no nuns in sight these days, but the nightmares are free!  Then time for a few hours at the beach before our picnic at 4:30, before the Concert-in-the-Park, featuring the Corvettes (great oldies band).  See you there! - Gwyn
