Reunion Perspective The following comments were given by a teacher on the night of a high school reunion. It seems to put into perspective of what reunions have come to represent. I thought it might be of some interest to those of us who may have a reunion coming up in the near future. Many of you have attended not only high school together, but junior high and sometimes even grammar school. In your transition from childhood to adolescence, you shared many experiences both painful and triumphant and in many ways left an indelible imprint on each other. A reunion is a celebration of life; not just your life, but the lives of all those around you. It offers you an opportunity to revisit a period of your past that had so much influence in guiding you to become who you are today. It is an affirmation of your successful transition from youth to maturity and the good news is, you have survived. Many of these people share that triumph with you tonight. These are such infrequent yet very important opportunities in your life. Thank you for letting me share this moment with you tonight. I encourage you to attend all your school reunions. The Reunion Planner Linda Johnson Hoffman and Neal Barnett

Class of '51........Get ready Betty Jean Chestnut Seeders tells us that next year will be the 60th anniversary for the Class of 1951.
