Nunzio~ Thanks so much to you and your wife for opening your beautiful home, it was very, very gracious of you! Enjoyed it so much!
I'm glad I could fly in and see Teri and that we were able to work it all out where we could come over to see everyone! It was really great catching up with Chuck, Mike and Johnny! Always great to see old friends and meet new ones, back then I don't think Seniors associated with 7th graders unless they had to!
Now...as far as us enjoying looking at our 7th grade pictures...don't think that was a very pleasurable experience! Quite scary actually!
Looking forward to next summer, hoping to be there, but will make sure that both Robin and Teri are with me!
Again...many thanks! Great fun!

I am pretty sure fun was had by all who attended. The party started around 1PM. I had to help the '76's out to their cars around 11:30. They were ready to start skinny dippin but they could tell I was falling asleep in my chair. They had me sucking down Amaretta Sours when I am usually taking my afternoon nap. You could tell we are all in our 50's. Even just a few years ago, they would have watched me sleep while they just headed into the pool.
Mary, Teri, Johnny, Bear, and Chuck had fun finding pictures in the old Talon's. Of course, they had to find them in the seventh grade section as we only had my copies from 69-71 to look through.
Jon Thompson, Ross Wallace and I held the fort for '71 along with our spouses. It was super to see them. Even with 5 years between our classes, the stories about life on Randolph were enjoyed by all. Tales of the teen center, officer's pool, flight line snack bar, bowling alley flowed all night, as did fond memories of Coach Scott, Mr. Porter, Mr. Rice, and Mr. Hall, just to name a few. Football camp was rehashed by both classes. I could go on, but hey, you should have been here.
Catching up with careers and growing families was super also.
As Bear said, we all agreed it is time to have another all class reunion next summer. What we really, really need to know is whether or not enough RoHawks are interested. If you are, tell us now!
Thanks Jon, Ross, Teri, Mary, Chuck, Bear, and Johnny! I had a super time with you all. The bar is re-stocked and the house is open to you all anytime.
