PHS CLASS OF 61 REUNION

We had a reunion this last weekend.  We missed those of you who could not attend but understand that we cant always do what we want, when we want to do it.  You are forgiven.  Those of us attending talked until the point of not having much else to say and then we went to bed.  Going to bed is influenced by the fact that this was our 54th year since graduation.

We rehashed old memories, relived some times that were probably better forgotten but some of the tales allow the legends to continue.  Some tales were funnier retold than they were when they happened.

Try as you may, to forget or deny, that cliques existed in our time in high school, time has a way of overriding those silly thoughts we had as to who was cool and who wasnt.  When reuniting with each other you find that everyone has been successful as parents, some as grandparents and human beings in general.  You only remember the very best about your fellow students and that is well worth the time and expense it takes to attend a reunion.  I try not to miss one and hope that others will make an effort when another is scheduled.  You will be surprised how easy it is to slip back in the position of being a long lost friend, some one I call a “forever friend”.

  1. I enjoyed our get-together, Gary. Ya done good, guy! (Yes, I know that is not proper, but…) It was great to see some of our classmates that we have not seen at previous reunions as well as our never-miss-a-one classmates. It is great that in our old age, we get along better than we did when we were young; the cliques don’t matter any more. When we have another one, let’s consider San Antonio. Ok?? Many of us can help, or we could come to your house or Skipper’s! I heard him offer to cook up something with you. ???

  2. Gary, I sat down to write you a note and realized that I have no physical address for you.

    I had a great time at the reunion. It was fun to visit with everyone. It was a relief to see that no one had aged since our last meeting!? Thanks for a great job puttingthe reunion together. The food and service were excellent and the unique NYLO hotel was a fun experience. I liked everything about the hotel except the circles on the gray concrete ceiling above the bed–I kept waiting for the water droplets to fall–but it didn’t happen!

    Stay in touch.
