That was me. I had to do a little detective work - visited a few websites and traded emails with a CA newspaper.

He was a real fun guy! He is missed by many.

Johnny George

Thank you Norma. Way to step up and get something going!
I know Todd Cogbill lives in Mesquite. I signed up for my space so I could send him a message. Ran into Ladonna Smart some years ago at a mall in Dallas. She said she was going to Georgia if I remember right. She also said her brother Roger was married and lived in Canton. And in some random conversation with someone a few years ago--Caryn Howell lives in Terrell. Hope that helps and sorry so wordy. Johnny G

Bonnie Liebreich Gradt

Just FYI - I noticed that a comment was made about having a "day" thing for our reunion.....we are! That is included....we are looking at a family day and then an adult evening. Just wanted to bring that to anyone's attention that was curious. Thanks! Bonnie

Jana Lovvorn Titsworth

Does anyone else feel "old"....OMG! 20 yr reuinon!!! I have a HS student that makes it even worse! Young at heart right!!!

Latricia Strutton

For those of you who have grown up and now feel "old"... see what you get! For how many years now (20) y'all have said I need to grow up, haven't, don't feel old :-)

I can't wait to see all of you old farts - ha ha ha

love you all!

Rhonda Wright Shabazz

If you think that you feel old then trying having a 22 year old who will be delivering her first child Nov 08. That's right I guess if you were the first mom you would definitely be the first "yaya" because I refuse to be grandma, nana, memaw or any of those OLD dreadful names (lol)

Tracy White

I would just like to request that whatever venue that we choose is easily accessable to handicap. As many of you may know, I am in a wheelchair from an automobile accident I had a few years back. I would appreciate the accomodation. Tracy

Wayne Stroud

First, thanks to Norma for this site! Second... wow, 20 years?!? Boy, that'll sure make ya feel old in a hurry. As will looking through some of the collections of pictures from way back then. :) Lots of faces and names I vaguely recognize. Some with less hair or more wrinkles. lol. In any event, danged nice to rekindle old memories. Look forward to jabbering with some of you soon. In the meantime, catch up on me over at MySpace. Search on Blackin0494. **Wave!**

Hey Classmates,

I wanted to share an email I received from Ralph's sister. It was very sweet...

Liz,

It is odd how things happen.................I googled me daughter's name - Tori Brownlee - and the first entry I clicked on pulled up the
"In Memory" page for Sport. My emotions began to overwhelm me as I read the entries that followed. I am so glad that my little brother left behind good memories for others to share.

February 22 will be 7 years since he was taken from us and it seems like it was just yesterday that my Dad called me and gave me the terrible news. My parents and I immediately got on a plane and went to California. It was and still is very hard on my parents.
I think about him everyday and I miss him so much.

I just wanted to let you know how much it meant to me that his classmates have helped keep his memory alive.

Have a great day!!

Micki Wennerstrom------------aka Micki Brady

p.s. Kudos to Norma for going above and beyond finding the information that she posted. Good detective work!!! Next time you see her please let her know how the "In Memory" page she created found it's way to Sport's family.

Noel McGee Oglesby

Elizabeth Julian Smith

Bonnie Liebreich Gradt

OMG! LOVE the senior pictures with our profiles. That is greatness! You just have to laugh about all that big hair.

Susie Farmer Storaska

Shelah Bishop Cerveny

I'm a little out of the loop, how did Cynthia Edwards die? She was such a good person.I was hoping to get in touch with her when I found this site.
And thank you guy's for adding me as a guest,maybe no one remembers me but I sure remember all of you.

Elizabeth Julian Smith

Hi Shelia,

I do remember you. You and Vickie were good friends and you were in band with us. Cyndi had ovarian cancer. She was a very sweet person and great friend.
Glad you are on here and keep in touch.
