Who "enriched" all those young lives?

"When our last child was entering Kindergarten, I started working at our church’s new preschool as an instructional aide. I started taking Early Childhood Education College courses and, 5 years later, became the Director of the school. It was an enrichment program for two and one half hours Monday through Friday mornings. I ended up working there for over 24 years!"

Oh, good! Another one came in today! See the column!

Yes, but is Barbara Maynard Vetter going to send her picture? We have her bio, and that's great!

Perhaps Barbara will send it in soon!

I know that Becky Slane Bush is working on her bio, too. Her picture looks great....

Number of what?
Number of classmates contributing to the CHS Class of 58 booklet for the 50th Class Reunion.
No, there are really more than that.
Then, where are they?
Oh, they're coming either in snail mail to 238 Harrison Street, Chelsea 48118 or via email to
janbernath@yahoo.com

Great! Will they be here soon?
Why is that important? Is there a deadline?
Yes.
Really? When's that?
June 1st.
That's a Sunday.
Okay, then. Monday, June 2nd.
I guess that's next week!

Whose good fortune? (No Dougs allowed)

"I have never been hungry, without medical insurance, and have almost always had a roof over my head except when I have chosen not to. No major health problems other than getting older and the maladies that accompany age."

Missing Classmates

Please let Doug C know via email if anyone has information about the following "missing" classmates:
Bob Anderson, Betty Fletcher, Mary Hoffman, Barbara Hoskins, Dan Knight, Troy Lewis, Russell Moore, Elena Romero, Cathy Schauer, Pat Taylor, and Joe Willis.

Who had so many moves?

"Over a span of 20 years we lived in Long Beach, Monterey and San Diego in California; Pearl Harbor, Hawaii; Northern Virginia; and Annapolis, Maryland. During this time my husband also had 2 one-year unaccompanied tours--one to Vietnam and one to Korea."

Deadline for bios and pictures is June 1.

Hoping to complete the booklet with at least "entries" from:

Lois Schiller Mitchell
Peggy Miller Russo
Jerome Forner
Becky Slane Bush
Bob Brown
Ron Clark
Norma Hafner Hards
Sandy Buehler Weber
Bob Weber
Ed McDaniels

These people indicated an interest previously, but others are certainly welcome by June 1.

Why does Doug get all the correct answers?

Guess who had a "surprise" like this...

"We lived in rented homes until purchasing our current home in December, 1967. We added two adopted children to our family and then “surprise”---- we found ourselves expecting our 4th child."

A quote from someone's bio. Who is it?

"During the gas crunch of 1976 I decided to take a job closer to home. That is when I went to work for Harper Pontiac in Chelsea where I worked for thirteen years. With the kids attending Chelsea Schools, and their dad test driving customer’s cars, if the kids decided not to attend school for whatever reason, they always stopped at Harper’s to let dad know, so he wouldn’t catch them where they didn’t belong."

Stumped?

I notice no one responded to the previous question. Whose bio is longest? (Refer to side bar column and look for * as an indication of bios received so far. A new question will be submitted after the first one is correctly answered. (Or, at least someone attempts an answer!)

Guess

Look for the * following the names of reunion attendees. (* indicates a bio has been received) Who submitted a bio that is longest?

The Key

You will notice the people in the right-hand column who have replied positively about coming to the reunion. Now we have * that means a biography has been received by the biographer and a + that means a picture has been received. June 1 is the deadline to fill in the * and + if you wish to be included in the booklet. Bios are ranging from 250 words to too many at 2,000!
