teachers before lunch was served at noon.
After lunch, Tony Stuttgen reminesced about the cost of items back in 1965,
JoAnne Peterson named the top songs of that year and Jane Meyer gave a humorous
talk about some changes that have occurred during last 56 years.
Peterson led the group in a moment of silence for the 17 classmates who have
passed away.
Joan Laabs read the prophesy for each classmate, after which they told a little
about their lives since graduation.
Peterson volunteered to send directories of the class members’ addresses, emails
and phone members to interested classmates.
Classmates plan to gather again in 2025. The planning committee will be Joan
