On Saturday, Sept 11, the Abbotsford High School classes of 1955 and 1956 celebrated their 65th and 66th reunions at IGYS Bar & Grill in Withee.

The class of ‘55 with 44 students graduating and the class of ’56 with 36 graduating went on to further their education, work, serve their country, raise their families and contributed to society in many varied ways.
