Missing in 2013

Shirley just gave me a listing of all of our classmates that the Reunion Committee has been unable to locate this year.

Please check the page of Missing Classmates and if you have contact information for any of these individuals, let one of the Reunion Contacts know.

Contributors Still Needed

The Class of '63 blog still needs more class members who would like to publish posts and contribute.  The blogging software is now extremely easy and doesn't require any knowledge of HTML code.  It is WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get), no coding language needed.

We have lost many of our classmates over the last 10 years - McCorvey brothers Darrell and James, Norman Van Pelt, Larry Holland and countless others.  If you would like to share a memorial with a picture of any of our deceased classmates, you're welcome to contribute.

Email me, Beverly Watson, or leave a note in the comments of this post.
