Hey if you old farts can get there I will see you there.

Celinda (Cindi) Ward (Hanna)

I would say it looks like we have a party brewing!  It may not be as well attended as our last event but my philosophy is that as long as there are individuals willing to get together we should make it happen no matter what the headcount may be.  Thanks for all the offers of assistance!  I will look into some options for a meeting location and solicit some ideas from you as we move through the process.  We had email bouncebacks from some classmates who must have changed their email addresses or terminated access from this site.  If you have contact with any of the folks listed below, please let them know about our July plans:  Tom Hickman; Deene Rue (Hyde); Rita Stark (Estes); Delia Cooper (Gray); Michael Cosby; Rene Garza; Katrina Donnell (Kimble); Brenda Hicks; Gay Roland (Jarvis) and Vicky Powell (Hamilton).  A few of these are on Facebook so I will post a notice there, too.  Thanks again for all the responses.  I'm looking forward to seeing you all in July!

Randy Stephens

Hurray, huray, hurray!

A party! Can't wait! Love a good party! See ya all there!!!

Kathy Breitling (Carlisle)

I will be there also unless something unexpected happens.  I look forward to seeing all of you.  Cindi, I am going to go ahead and ask our son-in-law to reserve his trailer for our class just in case we would like to ride in the parade.  He gets so many people who want to book his trailer for this event, that I want to get my name first on his list!  :-)   If we decide that is something we don't want to do, then I can cancel it later, but I'd rather have it lined up than be frantically searching for someone with a trailer closer to July.  We had some really beneficial snowfall last night, and we are very thankful for it.  July will be here before we know it!  See you then.

Emma Chapa (Hernandez)

Hey everyone! Count me in, I would like to attend, see you all there!!

Denice Rossi (Gerber)

Hey Donna

Sorry to hear you can't come to the party. But I feel like I should warn ya that there is a small phenomenal withdrawal fee. It could bankrupt ya. Rumor is that it's a six figure number. But take heart, I hear it's nice in Old Mexico.

"OLD - MEXICO - HAVEN'T EVER BEEN THERE BUT I STILL WANT TO GO...."

Since your retired - and if I make $.50 on my book, ya wanta go fishen?

Planning on attending reunion.  Haven't seen anyone since the 5 yr reunion.  Just recently found this site and was so excited to read all the comments and catch up on the profiles.  Living in Greenville, TX (NE of Dallas).  My mom and brother (Ronnie) live in Canyon.

Celinda (Cindi) Ward (Hanna)

Good news!  Lloyd has been busy and has found us a place to congregate for our 45th on July 18th in Tulia.  I'm sure some of you are familiar with a restaurant called "Dorothy's".  It was originally owned by Ms. Boyett, then later by Alvin and now recently sold to Bryan Ballenger (son of Jackie & Barbara).  Bryan has agreed to open the restaurant that evening (exclusively for us) and will provide burgers and possibly other menu items (grilled or fried) at $10.00 per person.  It will also be "BYOB".  I will be forwarding an email to the class list to get a head count but I think this would be ideal for our gathering.  Other venues in town fill up fast and we are fortunate that Lloyd was able to complete his mission and find us some good space!  Thank you Lloyd for your time and diligence.  You will all be hearing from the site soon via email!  I'm looking forward to seeing you all in Tulia.

Randy Stephens

HOORAY Lloyd! YOU THE MAN!

Thanks you old fart (ups Celinda gunna get me).

In honor of all us old farts, (ups slipped again) who are really only 39, I'm gunna bring not only beer but some "red,red wine." Merlot for Censor Celinda. Maybe that'll chill the girl with the red dress on. I could ask you to wear the pink ribbon - but that might get us in trouble again. Who knows?

"THIS IS MY TOWN LALA, LALALA....."

See ya'll and you guys there!

Randy Stephens

Hey dudes and DUDETS,

While I'm sitten here eating.... Yes I know it's 4:00. This is my breakfast, lunch and supper. A bowl of beans and a half jug of milk. Yes, go old moooo juice. The stuff that makes cows smile when you squeeze an udder. Life is good for them. But I'll have a handful of mixed nuts later. Anyway I wanted to say hey. So hey!

I look forward to seeing you all for the second time in 45 years. Shame on me. It one of those should-a, would-a, could-a but didn't-a kinda things. However, as Kid Rock sang "GOT ONE FOR YA - JUST A LITTLE BIT...."

Ya see in those lost 40 years I remembered all ya as you once were. As you were in T.H.S. In my mind for 40 years you were young, vibrant and looked like you did in T.H.S. The good old days. But let me continue least you think me a sentimental old slob.

For 40 years I keep you  "ALWAYS ON MY MIND...." And in there you were your beautiful, young self. No need to thank me. There's no charge for that. My pleasure. So ya want to be young and frisky again? Come into my mind. Live there and be free. Like Hotel California you can come on in but ya can't leave. That is unless you decide to paying up for your 45 year presence. And once you walk around in my Twilight Zone, Outer Limits mind you'll wanta leave. Believe me. Then I'm in the money.....!!!!! Yes! This is my great backup plan in case my book don't sell! Rich indeed - rich indeed!!!!

Randall 

Look forward to July

Jo Hickman (Briley)

I think I'll be able to come after all.

Randy Stephens

Sorry to hear about Vicky. Does anyone know what happened?

Randall

Debra McCoy (Johnson)

Vicky Powell Hamiltion passed away May 20, 2015 , She lost her battle with cancer. She put up a good fight for about 10 years. Vicky was known for her spirit filled faithfulness to her Lord. She was a devoted prayer warrior to all who knew her and her prayers were known to move mountains. She will be missed. The family suggests memorials to Don and Sybil Harrington Cancer Foundation, to benefit the patients at Baptist St. Anthony's Hospice, 1600 Wallace Blvd, Amarillo Tx 79106   

You can go to Amarillo Globe News.com  obituaries             

Randy Stephens

Hey Debra,

Thanks. I didn't know about Vicky and her battle. I didn't even know she was in Amarillo. Regardless it sad to loose another classmate and friend. Cancer got my Mom in 2011 and my favorite auntie last year. It's a mean illness. Vicky will be missed by us all.

See ya on the other side girlfriend.

Sorry to hear about Vicky.  Randell, I do not have the patience for fishing, but if you want to shoot something I there.  As some of you know my retirement was not exactly my idea, and I am still having trouble adapting to it.  I still hope to return to work in a few months.  Since I am retired we will be attending the reunion July 18th.  Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Debra McCoy (Johnson)

Classmates if you are in need of a place to park your RV while you are in town for our class reunion, I will be glad to help you out. Highland RV Park 800 N. Floyd  full hook-up 30amp. and 50 amp. Showers and a laundry for $30.00 a night. Email me at dj3jjohnson@yahoo.com .

Denice Rossi (Gerber)

I am not going to be able to attend our 45th Class Reunion after all. I will be attending a family reunion with my husband. I will however be going to whatever event is on Friday night (July 17th) on the square. I believe David Knall sang last year. Perhaps I will get to see some of you then.

Claudette Laramore (Mierzwik)

Did I miss something...has there been any information about the 45th reunion on July 18 as to what time we are meeting at the restaurant?  I know I saw the restaurant but don't know where it is located.  I haven't been to Tulia since the 10th reunion and I don't remember much about the town layout.

Randy Stephens

Hey mattes, or should I say classier's. How about, classmattes and mates...?

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the reunion. Claudette, I'm gunna bring you one of my memory pills. I know you ran around Tulia like the rest of us in THS. So, it just a matter of remembering. Of course there are probably some things you don't want to remember so you can take only half a pill. It'll fix ya right up girl. It's guaranteed. Lifetime fix or your money back. And I only charge a small, phenomenal fee.  

Tredway, if I bring all my fire arms there won't be any room for luggage. But I always carry my 357 Ruger with me wherever I go.

Hey retirement is good if you have something else you like to do, and enough long green, loot, folding stuff, money that is. I retired last year and worked on the book. But I got a call in May from an old friend who begged me into part time work with him. Three days a week. Damn, I miss my three days. So there goes my retirement. For a while anyway.

Denice, I haven't ever been to the Friday night thing. Where and what time does it happen. and I'll be there with my boots on. Cloth optional! 

LOVEN EVERY MINUTE OF IT...................
