GRIZZLYBEARClass of '62
Gave yearbook to my Mother she's into keeping things like that....I graduated from a small school graduation class of 19. Got drafted in '63 and lived in 10 different states until '86 before moving back home.
Like the old saying goes you can never go back home again. I haven't seen, talked to, or heard from any of my childhood friends as I was not close to any of them.

flashguyI have several of them--I know where the one for my Senior year is. I went to high school with some fairly famous people: Ivan Boesky (junk bonds); Ruth Laredo nee Meckler (classical pianist); and George Zweig (co-founder of the Quark Theory). Me? I was a nobody.

adorClass of ‘88. Our school only do Senior year. I made a mistake of not ordering a copy. I was glad to get hold of a copy a year later from one of the school admin. Still have my copy in my hobby room. Even showed it to my son who is now in Sophomore High.

KraquinWife and I have ours and boxes of new ones. We were in the same class. She organizes the class reunion every 5 years and there's always a few people who buy one every reunion.

KDRI've got mine somewhere in the house. They came in handy one time. I was at a wedding of a longtime friend I went to grade school with and I ended up talking to a guy for 30 minutes that I "apparently" went to high school with. I had zero memory of him. I got home, found the yearbook and looked him up. Sure enough, we were in the same class. I remembered him when I saw his yearbook photo. The funny thing is that I will never forget him now.

1869 or 1969? Just asking.
Did you pass math class or is there an inside joke?

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

maxwayneI have all 4 with my senior year at my right hand as I type. Only 92 in my class and 15 are gone. If you want a yearbook, they can be ordered online.
