If you're browsing through one of the photo albums and want to enlarge a picture, click on the picture and get an enlarged view. To enlarge it even further, click on the "magnifying glass" icon to enlarge it to 125% and click again to enlarge to 150%. To go even BIGGER, click on the arrow next to the magnifying glass and choose 200% or 400%. To get the full picture, move the mouse to the lower right corner of the picture "window", click on the corner, and, holding the mouse button down, drag the window until it's big enough. Using these techniques you can tell that the new picture of Gary Schroeder and his dog Millie at the agility trial ("More Current Photos, Picture #30" was taken at 2:36 by looking at the clock.

Note that the "School Memories" Section has a pair of entries by Dave Fuller and Jim Kerr dedicated to Ms. Fanny Hopkins and Ms. Clarice Kline. They're pretty good, if I do say so myself.

NOTE: I KNOW that there are some photos of the reunion because I remember lots and lots of flashes occurring, even through the haze of reminiscences and a bit of alcohol. So send me your Reunion photos, your school photos, pix of your kids, hobbies, whatever.

ATTENTION : IF YOU KNEW AND LIKED JIM KERR, SEND HIM AN E-MAIL AT:
JIMKERR@ISLANDS.VI
HE'D LIKE TO HEAR FROM SOME OF YOU, I'M SURE. 
ALSO, DAVE KERZNAR AT

IS HAVING HEALTH PROBLEMS AND COULD USE SOME SUPPORT. HE WAS A MAINSTAY ON THE REUNION COMMITTEE.

The section called "Roster Changes" updates names, addresses, and/or telephone numbers of the Class O'58. Look at this section to get the latest info. For example, we  have a new address for Sharon Case, and updated the e-mail address for Bob Comstock, who would like to hear from some of you.

The 50th reunion was held September 12th and 13th, 1958, and was a rip-roaring success. Our next reunion will be the 55th in 2013.

Sue Laue has sent some new photos for the "More Reunion 08 Pix" Section, and Jim Sohr has sent some photos of his artwork  for the "More Current Photos" section

There's been a new addition to the "In Memorial" section, and I've posted Joe Connelly's notes from his address to the class given at our graduation, and repeated at the reunion,  Photos 29 & 30 in the "Photos From School Days".

I got a letter from Marion (Dettman) Eales the other day with a tribute to her late husband, Jerry Eales, and I added a few words of my own. If anyone out there wants to write about any of the other deceased classmates, please mail or e-mail your thoughts to me and I'll see that they are posted.  Dave Fuller

I received this e-mail today & decided to share it:

Hi Dave:
  I just received some good news and also some bad news. I just had a C.T. Scan for an abdominal aneurysm. The bad news is, I have one and will require surgery shortly. I will also miss the 50th class reunion. The good news is that the problem was found and can be solved with surgery.
 
 Donna and I will truly miss seeing my former classmates, The one thing that will remain with me is, WHAT A GROUP OF UPWARDLY MOBILE MEN AND WOMEN THE CLASS OF 58 HAS TRULY BECOME!
                                                                    Sincerely
                                                              Patrick & Donna Hess
