Subject: Hi!
Hi, my name is Carol (Shelton) Walker. I left Gally in '63.
I think the Class of 1966 reunion is a brilliant idea! I have not seen most of the classmates since I left Gally. After being in Northern California for 25 years ( I worked for United Airlines), my husband retired and we, along with our son, moved to Oregon where we've been for 5 1/2 years now. Oregon is quite way off from where the Reunion will be held . I think it could be very nice if the Reunion can be held in the Midwest so that just about everybody can come to. Huh??
I am just a typical housewife, I love to cook, garden, play with our dogs and I love to tole paint crafts; paint, paint, paint!
I hope to attend the Reunion but we are not sure yet. God bless you for getting the 35th year reunion planned!
Carol

Hey there!
Wowowowowowiiieeeee!!!! Hip, hip, hooray! G-A-L-L-A-U-D-E-T (CLAP,
CLAP) CLASS OF SIXTY SIX (CLAP,CLAP!)
Wow, Jeanie, Francis and Henry (Henry,I noticed they spelled your
last name wrong! -- "Vulg".. heh, heh! Is this short for vulgar??
Heh, heh!!) (^_-) Thanks for this brainstorm! This is neat! I hope
this message goes through, but we shall see, won't we? Like most of
you, I'm learning the ropes!
CRYSTEW, huh?? Crying over stew? What the heck is that? Back in
1991, when I joined America ONLine, I didn't wan't to use my own name
cuz I didn't want to be bombarded with junk mail from the
subscribers. My first granddaughter was born a few days before I
signed up on AOL. Her name is Crystal Stewart, hence the handle.
She's 9 now. Boy, how time flies! Yeah, you guessed it! I'm a
grandma- I have 3 1/2 grandchildren. Oldest daughter Alberta has 2
girls- Crystal and Alyssa (6 I think!) and is expecting again in
March. Youngest daughter-Norma has one daughter-Sabrina (4)
You will never guess with this address, but this is the one and only
Nathie Marbury. Grin! Howdy everyone from Austin, Texas! Until the
next message!

Hey there,
I am still alive and kicking. It is my 24th year working at my ole school, Mississippi School for the Deaf. Now I am looking forward to retiring after 25 years of service. I teach three classes in the morning and work as Athletic Director in the afternoon. Boys Basketball Coach and Girls and Boys Track Coach. I love what i am doing. But it begins to take a toll on me.
I graduated in 1975 but Class66 still is in my heart. I attended Class66 reunion. Did not attend Class75 reunion last month. I am not planning to miss
my Class66 reunion next year!!!!!
Suspect that Janet Arthurs secretly found the Fountain of Youth somewhere in Florida and sent some bottles to Harry Vlug and Ed Bosson. They all look so great while I look so aged. Jim, sorry i could not see your pix. Saw Buford Gilliam at the wedding of Ed and Pauline Wood's daughter in Baton Rouge, La about three weekends ago. He looked great and enjoyed his retirement in Alabama.
OK, better shut up right away.

Wow, this is fun to hear from many different classmates and very entertaining. I thank Jeanie for all the work she's done to make this possible. I am Joan Harvey, nee Somers. I work as a Medical Technologist in a big laboratory in Virginia. I don't know when I'll retire. I just started to work full-time five years ago! Before that, I was mainly a homemaker having small part-time jobs. My two daughters, ages 26 and 30 are married. I have four adorable grandchildren all pre-school age. Hope to see you at the reunion.
