6767

Welcome Class of 1967Like chaff in a whirlwind you have scattered to the four

corners of this great land of ours and beyond. From Climax, MIto Lubbock, TX and Seattle, WA to Port St. Lucie, FL you are,hopefully, wending your way to the quaint little hamlet ofHockessin, DE for your 40th reunion. To those of you who haveattended any or all of the previous reunions, welcome back,we’ve enjoyed your company. If this is your first or you’ve comea far distance, then welcome home, it’s been a while.

Forty plus years ago the torch of civic responsibility waspassed from a weary war-torn generation to us, their children,who in turn commenced to stand the world on its ear. We aregathered tonight to celebrate those tumultuous times; thedramatic changes in the arts and social attitudes, the healingfrom our own military struggles, and the perpetuation of ageneration that insisted that we “do it our way.” Why not usethis evening to renew old acquaintances, dance with yourhoney, and answer decades-old questions like “what everhappened to ………”? So, pull up a chair and spin me a yarn.The weather’s hot, my dancing is not, but the last call is notuntil twelve. Do enjoy yourselves and we hope to see you againin 2017.

Your attention please. Would the couple from Montana thatleft their horses with the parking valet guy please report to thelot? Something about…an exhaust emissions problem…..

Your Reunion Committee

The last ten years have brought great happiness to my life.After being married for 9 years, my daughter Wendy had a babyin 2004, my first grandchild – a little boy named Conner andthe joy of my life! Unfortunately I don’t get to see him as muchas I would like because his family lives in Myrtle Beach, SC.No matter how many times we do that 12 hour drive it doesn’tget any shorter. Flying takes almost as much time but is lessstressful. Other than that, not much has changed in my life.

I’m still married to Don, we still live in the same house, and Istill work at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Theother good news is that we have a new mall only 20 minutesfrom my house.

the chemical industry (predecessors of what is now AstraZeneca)as Commercial Operations Manager. Company globalheadquarters were in Europe, with offices and customers inEurope, Asia, South America, Australia, and the U.S.; therefore, Itraveled quite a bit, mostly in UK and US. As anyone whotravels for work knows, it isn’t as glamorous as it might sound,but it has afforded the opportunity to see places. My husbandretired from Temple University, his alma mater and employer for24 years in Broadcasting and Television. For some reason Imissed the motherhood gene; I didn’t get married until I was 32,therefore, we never had children. But we are happily aunt anduncle to several nieces, nephews, and now great-nephews. Stanand I are in the process of selecting our future retirement location– somewhere with a golf course in the community or close by.Stan is a really good tennis player and golfer.
