EVeryone go to Facebook and look at my homepage, or Mary Richard's home page, or Suki Westra Janisch's home page or Scott Schiltz home page and see some more cool pictures. Don't know why they are not downloaded on the photo page here yet?

What a great time!!!  Even my husband who didn't know anyone when we got there had a great time and enjoyed getting to know everyone.  Thanks to the team who got it all together for us.  Thanks to Beth Huntzinger for holding our table on the boat so we could all hang together.  Also thanks to John Morgan for making the Sunday night Quest game the most memorable and fun time of the cruise. (Hopefully he'll let us post some of those pictures.)   I can't wait to go again and I hope more of you dreadnaughts will sign and sail on the next cruise.

Unbelievable......we WILL do this again.  All who passed it up will want to come for sure.  Wait till you see the photos.   It could be an annual event if we have enough.  Out of 741 Classmates surely we can get bigger every year.  Thanks goes out to Nancy Cyphert, Kathleen Dozier and Shawn Eady (oops forgot married name) for all your hard work and making this a great time for us all.  Keep those pictures coming.  The "sailing" Dreadnaughts rock.  We have a permanent place on the bar in a little beach bar in Cozumel  thanks to Mary Richards.  All will know we were there!!

My partner in crime/big sister Helen (from the Class of 1976 and OHS attendee) are booked and ready to sail.  It is going to be a great time so come on fellow classmates, be crazy with the rest of us and Come Sail Away. On another note SB and my Jr. PE, Beth Floyd Huntzinger and Nancy Calabro Stone are still searching for classmates.  If you have a few minutes look through the lost list and see if you know were any of these individual are now.  Just send me note under contact us - any info you give us remains confidental - Would really like to get the list down :) Hope to see more Sailors signing up :) SB Kathleen

Happy early 4th everyone!!! Please keep our troops in your thoughts and prayers.

Hello everyone.  Happy to report a Tommy Anderson sighting.  We took the 4 girls plus 2 friends to Amelia Island for vacation this week and found Tommy living the high life on Amelia Island.Tommy and his family are doing great and even though he is a just a little more serious,  Tommy is the same old Tommy.  I told him he needs to come here and get caught up with everyone.

Wow!  I accidentally ran up on your website and began to browse and reminisce.  Perhaps it's me, but I don't remember y'all looking so old at Southwest Jr.Seems like you had a big ol' time - maybe I'll smuggle myself into one in the future.Be good.

Wishing all my fellow classmates and their families a very Happy Spring and Easter!!!  Please take care.                                                                        Tracy

Well, I was planning on spending a little more time in Florida, but life got in the way. Tomorrow I am flying back to Germany with my two dogs and Husband in tow.  I'll be there about 4 years teaching military "stuff".  I enjoyed the reunion and am looking forward to the next one.  The planners get a standing "O" from me.  I will be in touch.

It was good to see everyone that was able to attend the wrap up party at Lewis and Brenda's ranch. As usual, the ladies did most of the work. I urged those in attendance to consider going to see Paul Thorn at Skippers Smokehouse in North Tampa on the 24th of February. The show begins at 6:00 and Paul thorn is scheduled for 8:00. I have never been to Skippers but Shawn and Burl have and they say it is great. You can google Skippers Smokehouse and Paul Thorn to get an idea of what to expect....sort of mini reunion-valentines day party. Thinkaboutit!

  Kudos to everyone that had a hand in planning and setting up the wrap party. Special thanks to Lewis and Brenda for *loaning* us their little slice of peace on earth for the party. I enjoyed seeing everyone again and I am sorry I had to cut my stay so short.  til next time, peace and be well.Leon

Kathleen,I heard thru the grapvine there will be a sorta reunion in Oct 08....is this true....I would love to be involved. My Father is doin much better, so time isnt an issue as it was in Oct. Hate so much I missed all the parties.....Please drop me a line and let me know about planning and such....you have my email and my cell is 608-0132.Ok Hope everyone had a wonderful and safe holiday season.....I love being back in Lakeland......

Belated Happy New Year to Everyone, hoping the holidays were as wonderful to each of you as mine.  Got to spend the Holidays with My Family in Lakeland on Christmas Day, a lst since Shaun was a little guy and now he is a Senior - were does time go?????  Well the party is officially planned thanks to Brenda and Lewis (and Lewis's helper Neil Combee - hey Neil once again thanks for the Jacket in Avon Park when the boys had a day at SFCC playing baseball, you never know who your gonna see).  The menu is wonderful, the refreshments are being chilled and the guitars are being packed up to travel.  The map should be on the website by tomorrow on how to get to the ranch - you all will get to adventure were the Debs spent many a years at Homecoming time making floats.  Please if you plan on coming let me know if you have not already, I would like to get Brenda a RSVP list by Friday so they make sure they have enough food to go with our refreshments.  LOLCan't wait to see everyone again and remember this is our lets talk about the good, the bad and what could have been done different AT THE REUNION meeting, won't take long.If you are unable to attend visit our MESSAGE BOARD (Shawn you rock with getting new things for us on the website) and post your thoughts and see me as a 48 year old cheerleader.  LOL  LOLSB Kathleen 

Hey yall.  Merry Christmas.  Got in at 9 pm Sunday night in Lakeland but did not check the website till now. Hope everyone had a good time at Molly's. Call me if in town 404-664-6457.   Be here till Wednesday. Hope to make the wrap up party in February.  Thanks to all who are planning that.  Tracy need to get our gang together in Atlanta.John

Happy Thanksgiving and great long weekend.  To everyone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope poeple will continue to post here. I noticed it has been several weeks since Tony's post. I had a great time seeing everyone, but barely scratched the surface with getting updates from most. I can't wait to get together for the post meeting in Jan?Happy Thanksgiving to you all, you're in my thoughts and prayers.

Thanks for the wonderful reunion guys and gals! Really enjoyed the camaraderie. But after looking through the pics I realized that I didn't get a chance visit with a lot of old friends! Never seems to be enough time these days. And thanks for letting us Phoenix boys (and Suki too!) play some rock 'n roll Friday night, it was an honor and a lot of fun. Maybe I should've kept some of those "adult" diapers that the girls were throwing around - might need 'em at the next reunion! Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

I too would like to thank all of the committee members for all their hard work so that we could have such a wonderful time. Shawn I would again like to thank you for helping my friend Debby Gammon Elliot be able to come! It was great spending some quality time with her and her family. I all for a wrap up party also, let me know if I can help! Thanks again. Debby

I had such a great time! It was so nice to see everyone and to catch up with old friends. Many thanks to the those who spent untold hours planning that weekend :)

Wow, what a fantastic weekend! I had a blast. Many, many thanks to all the committee members who worked so hard to put together such a fabulous reunion. I would love to have a reunion anniversary party or a 35th or whatever we can come up with. Ten years is way too long. I'm having those reunion withdrawals too! It was great seeing everyone!

Wow what a weekend. Thank you Reunion Team for doing such an outstanding job. The parties were so well done, and the locations were great. What a rush seeing all of my classmates from 30 years ago. It was wonderful.

I too want to say a big THANK YOU to all who worked so hard for our fun. It was such a great time!!! My friends in Atlanta wish I would shut up about it. You are all so special and made me feel that way. I didn't realize I had so many friends!!! Can't wait for the "wrap party". Please let's have a 35th. I would be glad to help. Tell Ben that I have 5 years to loose all this weight I have put on!!! To all you Atlanta Dreadnaughts let's plan our own get together soon. Happy Holidays to all and remember GOD is good all the time........ Love John

Going through severe withdrawal... Is there a 12 step program for Reunion-aholics?? : )

Thank you to all those who worked so hard to put this reunion together. It was fun, but over so quickly. There were many people to visit with and I seemed to be more shy than I really am now. I wanted to go and sit at every table just to get get to know each of you again. It was great for those who traveled a long way. Glad you could make it. I live in Ocala now, so for anyone who wants to visit horse country or the Silver Springs attraction where Tarzan was filmed, just invite yourself over. We have plenty of space and are about 15 minutes from I-75. Marion County is a beautiful place. All my contact information is on my website at www.MaryWHalter.com or www.bign.com/jmhalter

For those with children and or grandchildren nieces and nephews...go to you tube.com and type in Radney Foster Godspeed....watch the music video. It has to be one of the sweetest things you will ever see. Radney wrote the song for his son after he and his wife divorced and she moved to France with their son. There are several videos on you tube. View the one posted by tomscotland. Make sure you have kleenex nearby. The video will make a lasting impression on sentimental folk....I promise!

Thank you to all who worked so hard to put together such a special party! I only wish I had been able to make it to the Friday night party!! I heard it was great! However, Saturday night rocked! It was so good to see everyone, and whoever came up with the idea for a "wrap up" party...big kudos to you!! Count me in! And let me know what I can do to help!! Much love to all! Illana

A BIG THANK YOU to ALL that worked on putting together a WONDERFUL,MEMORABLE REUNION. And to the members of Phoenix, you guys STILL ROCK!!!!!!! Everyone please take care, hope to see you all at the next one, and please do keep in touch in between reunions.God Bless to my fellow Naughts and their families. Tracy

Thank you for all the effort that went into this past weekend. It really felt like "family" and meant the world to me. Thanks Bruce for making it all happen for me!

Thank you to ALL of the committee members who put together the 30th reunion. The hours and hours you all put into this are truly appreciated. I was only able to make it Sat. night, but I heard that Friday night was a blast. I'm sure Sun. was fun too seeing everyone's family. We had to head back to ATL. It was great to see everyone & catch up again after so many years. God Bless!

I know it was a labor of love, but Shawn and kathleen worked oh so hard. We really owe them and all of the "committee" members. Thanks to everyone who had a hand in making all this happen. It was a great time.....it just did not last long enough! Mike Brewington said it earlier....old friends are good for the heart. Amen brother! I know it did mine good to see so many young good looking classmates assembled together 30 years after graduation. I like the idea of a 35 year reunion....bar-b-que brisket, stout and loud music! Godspeed to all of you!

Thanks so much to all you guys who worked so HARD to make the reunion such a success. We all had a grand time and, again, want to thank you for putting on such a great party. You guys need a vacation! So great to see everyone!! I didn't take enough pictures, contact me if you've got some I'd like. I'm posting mine on Walgreens.com so if you'd like to get some copies, just email me and I'll invite you!

I could not even begin to say what a great time my husband and I had at the reunion. Hats off to all the many people who worked so hard to give us all such a memorable time - it was very much appreciated by all. I am all for a after reunion ( wrap ) party ( this time I will be able to help ) football is almost over for us. THANK YOU ALL AGAIN - IT WAS SO WONDERFUL TO SEE EVERYONE - ALSO LOVED THE PICNIC TO SEE ALL THE GOOD LOOKING CHILDREN THAT CAME FROM US ( AMAZING AFTER ALL THE PARTYING WE ALL DID !! )

I was planning on attending friday and saturday night but because of health problems and husband ending up in hospital was unable to attend ! From looking at the pictures everyone had a wonderful time .It was so great seeing so many familiar faces in these photos .I'm so sorry I missed it ! Everyone that put this together thank you ..Hopefully I will be able to make the next one !

I can't even begin to thank all of you who put the whole thing together, especially Shawn and Kathleen and of course my wonderful date David Lang, for the best time I've had in years! Seeing so many dear friends brought back sweet memories of our crazy teen years and made me feel young and care free again. I'm heading back to California tomorrow morning but will bring much laughter, tears and sweet new memories with me. I love you all and am so thankful for my time with you. Let me know if there's a 35!!

I was not able to attend the 20th reunion, so glad that it has worked out that I am able to come this time. I will be there on Friday & Saturday. Can't wait to see everyone again.

Hi everyone, I thought I was going to be able to come the 30th clas reunion but I am not going to be able to make it. I hope you all have a big turnout and have lots of fun. Does anyone know how to get in touch with Debe Messenger I would love to talk to her. Maybe if there is going to be a 35th or so I will try and make it. Would love to hear from some old classmates. Take care.

Two days left till the reunion. Does anyone know where Tami Thompson, Sam Heard, or Stephanie Smithson are? Would love to see them this weekend.

Looking forward to seeing lots of ol' friends. I don't dare use OLD to describe us just because we cracked the millennium barrier.

looking foward to attending

Wow - it's almost here !!! Looking forward to seeing my old sweetheart Dewayne Turner (please ask Kendra to save a dance for me ). Really looking forward to seeing all of you party animals ( what a class we had !! ). CHEERS ~~~
