July 2003
Dear Classmates:
Both my wife, Becky Sue, and I have been ill for quite a while and have been out of
"circulation". We are some better but as you all know at our age recovery
is not very rapid to say the least. Our working group here in the Tulsa area has
dwendled due to deaths and illness but some wonderful ladies of our Class have stepped in
to lead for the 60th Reunion. Our former Chairperson, Jo Ann (Perry) Huffman and her
husband are very ill and are not able to do much of anything. Jean (Redden) Paul is
our Chairperson now and is heading up the Reunion.
My wife and I, were able to attend the last luncheon at Luby's on 71st St. It was
good to see everyone again after a long absence and believe it or not they were glad to
see ME!!
Those present were: Bob Hensley, Beverly Gilbert, Patty Borofsky, Riley and Becky
Sue Foyil, Virgie (Bittle) Tucker, Jerry and Donna Carman, Roger and Laura Swift, Jeannie
(Redden) Paul, and Virginia Burlingame.
