Hello, all! 

Since posting this info below, Nancy Beitz Schell has stepped up to host the reunion this fall, so it's on!  Please look for emails from her or contact her at nschell@fwslawyers.com.  I hope everyone has a great time!  S~ 

Since putting out the information for a ‘69 get together’, I’ve had very few ‘planning to come’ responses from our classmates but many ‘can’t make it’.   As I mentioned, this time of life seems more uncertain for many of us, whether it’s family, health, travel, or a variety of reasons.   And some folks have expressed that they feel the 50th  was the last significant year to gather.  Finally, the people that suggested we try to re-meet this year are now unable to make it, including myself!  Some unexpected surgery came up.

As a result, I’m cancelling the October get together.  I hope that everyone still is connected to those who were a part of their high school experiences, whether they have been lifelong friends or folks they have reconnected with over the years.  Perhaps we’ll try for another reunion for the 60th

Last couple of things. . .   Some of you donated to the reunion fund in the past year, and I will use that money to renew the Richwoods website coming due next month.  Thank you to Ken Rogers for funding the last 5 years!  I will keep the website as current as possible with news to share or sadly, additions to our memorial page, so please feel free to send me any updates about classmates.   Finally, if anyone has suggestions for the use of any remaining funds – probably around $500, please let me know.  Otherwise, I’ll contact Richwoods High School in a couple of years to see if the money can be used to support current students.    

Happy Fall and wishing good health and happiness to you all!
