By my count there were 19 of 41 class members from the class of 1960. There could have been more. With spouses and friends from other classes, the total was close to 70. It was held in Meggett at the old bank building. The town of Meggett has done an excellent job of refurbishing the facility. The last time I had been there was in 1955 when Calvary Baptist had used it as Sunday School rooms. (Actually there were 21 members out of 35 living members of the Class of 1960 and a toal of 81 folks there, as pr Ronnie Rash.)
The meal was superb - barbeque pork and chicken, baked beans, green beans, red rice, potato salad, slaw and rolls. No one went hungry. I had not been to a reunion since the 40th for the class of 1961. Jan said that she was so pleased at how everyone welcomed her. It seems like she got hugged by everyone that she was introduced to. And she likes to get hugs. It was just good old St Paul's hospitality. She had a wonderful time. Lots and lots of the folks I had not seen in 50 years. Some of us looked a little older. But the basic person was still there under whatever body we carried with us. So we had a great time. The time passed so fast. Already looking forward to the next one.
I am sorry but I did not get everyone's picture. I know I missed Judy Moore, Ginny Herrington and her husband Bill, and a couple of folks I did not know. Also, I did not know all of the names. so forgive me if I made a mistake.
