Thank You Everyone!
I can’t thank everyone enough for the support you showed for the social, it means a lot to me.
I’m really glad Ken Beal brought his photos along because the only ones I had kind of sucked. Thank you, Ken, and thanks to Lilly as well for the sweater. It was a long way for you both to go and I think we are all impressed by that.
Karen Nelson came from Stonewall (okay, not as far, but still…) and took care of the food angle which really helped, as I think my choices for food wouldn’t have gone over very well.
Thank you, Karen.
This all started with Corey Robinson. Granted it wasn’t what he had in mind but it wouldn’t have happened without his efforts. Best friend out of my school years. Thanks man.
Whats awkward for me is the collection that was taken to help cover the costs. I was aware that there could be a loss and was prepared to cover it, but everyone chipping in really moved me. There were decent people at that school, and a good chunk of them made it clear they are still great in every way.
Thank you all.
So, once I talked to Brigida and picked up some left over tickets I found that there was still some money once costs were covered. This was given to the Legion Poppy Fund, as its that time of year.
Now, people took photos….lets see them!

Hi Janice,
I think I remember you. Did your brother and you used to come to school in an old VW? I think I also remember your brother having a VW van also. Did you have glasses and slightly curly hair and have a locker on the second floor above the office area?
