dear  CLASS MEMBER

 

I am writing you using the class reunion list from Phyllis Werhan-Bauer which is 10 years old plus a few revisions. I think it is importation that we keep in touch, we have already lost contact with many of our class mates over the years. It would be a shame if we lost contact with one another since we share a time and place that no others have had, 1948 thru 1952 at Grant High School, and for some of us those memories together go all the way back to first grade.

 

I never want to let go of those memories and as classmates we don’t have to, as long as we keep in contact, and share some of our life experiences together since leaving Grant High School the spring of 1952.

 

If you have e-mail contact me at hustler@mc.net or my wife Jane at janeclair@mailcity.com this is the easy way to keep in touch also their is a web site ClassMates.com where some of your classmates have already listed there e-mail address. Go to the site, lookup “state” “city” “High school” then 1952 and you will also find Graduate’s from classes as far back as 1933.  If you are having trouble remembering who I am my Class picture and update picture is posted at ClassMates.com and you can do the same.

 

If you have not entered the computer age there is still good old U.S. mail, send any new addresses and phone numbers to me at.

Have a happy holiday season:
