Suzi, I don't know if this will help, but this was my class ring. It is black onyx with mother-of-pearl. One noticable differnce from Boo's is that her's has her initials on it. Good luck in replacing yours, if that is your goal.

Thought some of you might enjoy this.

ADVICE FROM AN OLD HILLBILLY:

Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.

 

Keep skunks, bankers, and politicians at a distance.

 

Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

 

A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.

 

Words that soak into your ears are whispered, not yelled.

 

The best sermons are lived, not preached.

 

If you don't take the time to do it right, you'll find the time to do it twice.

 

Don't corner something that is meaner than you.

 

It don’t take a very big person to carry a grudge.

 

You cannot unsay a cruel word.

 

Every path has a few puddles.

 

Don't be bangin’ your shin on a stool that's not in the way.

 

Borrowing trouble from the future doesn't deplete the supply.

 

Most of the stuff people worry about ain’t never gonna happen anyway.

 

Don’t judge folks by their relatives.

 

Silence is sometimes the best answer.

 

Don‘t interfere with somethin’ that ain’t botherin' you none.

 

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

 

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin’.

 

Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.

 

The biggest troublemaker you’ll ever have to deal with watches you from the

mirror every mornin’.

 

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

 

Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin’ it back in.

 

If you get to thinkin’ you’re a person of some influence, try orderin’ somebody

else’s dog around.

 

Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll enjoy it a second time.

 

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly.

 

Most times, it just gets down to common sense.

I can hardly believe that Easter is on the 17th.  This year is passing quickly!

It is definitely spring in the midwest--cold and rainy one day, then hot and steamy the next--then just for fun the threat of snow flurries ont] the third.   Have a safe and Happy Easter!!  Celebrate and love your family.

Linda, year hasn't been great medically speaking.  I'm lucky because our kids are close by.  David Jr. is getting out of the army this year after thirty years.  His son is also in the army.    
My granddaughter is married and she's a nurse at Carle care hospital.  Her sisters both work at Walmart.  My son Jeff is now single so if any of you have a daughter who's single, over fifty but not older than fifty eight let me know.  Jeff has a good job at unit 5.

I'm getting ready to go get some test done.  Checking to see if the cancer has come back.
I could use some prayers.

Love all you Raiders

 Suzi, you have been in my thoughts and prayers and I'm so glad you got great news. Praise God.  Have a good Easter.

Thinking of everybody in our class during this Holy Week and Easter on Sunday.

Fantastic news Suzi! Everyone have a great Easter.

After Easter has its perks.

When we were younger, many of us vigorously boiled and colored eggs then perhaps added some colorful plastic eggs with candy to their Easter Egg Hunts for their children.

Afterward, we used up the extra real eggs by making egg salad or potato salad.

Today, many  older people only get plastic eggs and stuff them with candy.  I know they can't make Candy Salad so I suppose...........someone may be munching on that extra candy!

Since Summer is on its way, we need to shed pounds for those bikinis girls!

Think I'll look at the drapery much like Scarlet O'Hara did!

Happy Mothers Day to all you Moms out there.  It doesn't seem like it, but it's here again--before you  know it summer will be here and gone--then the cycle starts again.  Enjoy your day!!

Notice the 2022 Mini-Reunion Schedule is now posted at the top of the Home Page. I apologize for the late notice but I have had a lot on my plate lately and it has been more challenging than usual to find an acceptable venue for our May event. After consideration and evaluation of numerous locations by several Planning Committee members Kegler's Pub seemed to be our best option. Hopefully we will continue last year's better than usual participation. Let's make this year even better.

Monday May 16, 2022 6:00pm

Kegler's Pub at Pheasant Lanes

804 N Hershey Rd
