John told me Nance that spaghetti dinner is now to be paid for to the PTA that nite. People are a bit confused. So I will send him a check for the game. We will be there Sat. nite too I think. Marcia usually stays w/Mimi Sat. nite so she should be good too. And Barb/I will come Sat. Hope your granddgtr is OK. I am praying. God sometimes pulls a fast one doesn't He? Hard to understand.

Hopefully I can clear up any confusion...or make it worse..lol ! Friday and Saturday night have no connection to each other. Two seperate events for your enjoyment. Friday night after the game..there will be a "Canteen" thing at the Burntwood Cafe where the Beachcliff Theater used to be. (Inside the old theater)

Saturday night will be our 4th Annual Gathering of GERIATRIC SILLINESS" to take place at the BEACHWOOD TAVERN which is almost directly across from the old Beachcliff Theater. If you guy's remember..that's where we had it last year. Except this year we are going to try to secure their private room. (Just incase we wanna do a"Table Dance"....what a visual that would be!) My buddy Nancy is gonna try to secure the room. Hopefully this clears everything up. When things are firmed up....Gilbs will put the details up on the class website. We had a blast last year...hoping this year will even be better! THIS WILL BE AN AWESOME WEEKEND !!!!

Okay, so I was a wallflower at the Canteens! We had them also at college & I was shocked when guys asked me to dance as I realize it was Rocky River & not me! Don't know why, but there so many of us girls stood, never being asked & feeling so bad!! But, Barb/I will definitely be at the Fri. nite & Sat. nite events. We will stay at a hotel & leave Sun. a.m. I am pretty sure Marcia will stay for it too, but at least you know the Peate's will be there!

Congrats John Dawson, a great grandpa!!! Thanks for all the hard work you are doing on the Homecoming. I know what it is like to get people to help out. When I lived up there I helped w/every one of the reunions from day one. It is a big job!! Thanks also to those that have stepped up to help you out too. Wish I still lived there so I could help. Take care

HOPEFULLY WE CAN SECURE THE PRIVATE ROOM THIS TIME. WHAT EVER GO'S ON FRIDAY NIGHT,SATURDAY MORNING, SATURDAY AFTERNOON ETC.WILL BE ICING ON THE CAKE. HOPEFULLY NO ONE CONFUSES THE SATURDAY SEND-OFF RELATING TO THE GAME ACTIVITIES OF FRIDAY NIGHT WITH THE GIG ON SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE BEACHCLIFF TAVERN.

SOOOOO...HANG AROUND TOWN ...AND COME OUT ANDPLA Y SATURDAY NIGHT !!!!

Bruce, I see it the same way. Friday night only is the Homecoming, the rest of the weekend is classmates getting together. We always have a good time on a Saturday night when so many of us get together. John, I agree with you that touring the high school should be left for our 50th Reunion as opposed to October weekend. I feel if anyone wants to get together for breakfast or lunch on Saturday, go for it. Otherwise, all will meet together Saturday night for sure! Just how I perceive this.

Bottom line here is this.....This whole weekend is just about friends spending time together. We have a chance to do it twice in one weekend and that is AWESOME! Two seperate events...how cool is that?

Hi Nancy, Just thinking of you and wishing all the best for Mikaela. I will pray for her complete recovery and happiness. I know miracles happen! Peace and faith, Holly

thanks holly, i also know miracles happen-they took her eggs last week, she got her hair cut so,so short,but cute. this week will be chemo-she's young,strong, and has a very postive attitude which means alot. hope your feeling better-i guess we all need prayers,they sure don't hurt any of us. i hope you have a fast recovery also. hope to see you soon.

Nobody knows better than Holly! God is in control. Sometimes it works in our favor; sometimes it's His choice that we don't like very much. I thought my daughter would live; wasn't to be. We all pray & know it's God's direction & choice.
