Thanks for the Memories!! Let's do it again!

This whole elementary blog idea started in 2000 when a few RHS classmates' emails spread like wildfire. This blog consists mostly of conversations regarding our 40th reunion and, of course, memories from our elementary days. As we approach our 45th reunion, please share your comments, memories and wishes on our RHS Class of '70 Facebook page. Let's start with...
Are you interested in reuniting with your elementary classmates again in 2015?



So... how do I blog????

Please add a comment to any of these conversations! Look over our selection of blogs in the right menu, including those within past months. When you are feeling inspired, simply type a mesage in the "Post a Comment" text box. Underneath the comment box, open the "comment as" menu and select "name/url" (unless you have a listed profile). Type your name; you may leave the url blank. You may choose to be anonymous or include your name within the text as well. Select "Preview" if you would like to see what your comment will look like before it is published. You may choose to delete a message after it is published but it will leave a message stating "comment removed by blogger". Come on...You know you want to join us!

    Yup. One of the great things about this Willard revival was that we were able to locate Gail Brightman, and that she was/is willing to participate. To that end I've extracted some of the email chain that led up to her discovery. Click on the link below, and if everything works you should be able open a pdf file that contains the messages. If for any reason this doesn't work, let me know and I'll email you the file.

    Initiating the above email link were a few words from Gail (to Bob Elgin)...

    talk about a flash from the past!!

    how totally neat you would seek me out! and yes, i am the one who attended willard school in the 60's...how did you find me?? (am curious cuz i've been looking for my old hairdresser for years using every color page there is [ie yellow, white]!!

    i checked out your rhs website and it is beautiful! noticed a lot of familiar names; quite a stretch of memory cells..

    speaking of which, please refresh mine. i don't readily recall meeting up with andy bowe in virginia nor receiving correspondence from you all??? isn't he rick(y)'s older brother? i believe we used to race each other during recess, yes??

    what did become of chuck johnson? wasn't he a rather large fellow? noticed you didn't have word from carol scholl..how 'bout cindy bird? tried to access fackbook page but was blocked due to my non-rhs status; actually i did graduate from rhs..only it was ramsey high!

    thanks again, bob(by) for taking the time & effort to contact me; should i sign the guest page on the site? i could write a real short & snappy bio...;)

    Hi Gail! Did your house have lots of trees in the backyard? I remember it to be very woodsy. I really liked our neighborhood. I miss the hills and trees of Ridgewood!!

    Gail responds: we had a neat backyard..woods & trees & fishless fish pond & a beautiful stone wall way in the back...it changed quite a bit when my grandparents built an addition on in the back..

    and yes, the trees & the neighborhood rivalled no others! how blessed we were to partake, i agree; there's no other place where the greens were so abundant and varied; was back there years ago & couldn't believe how the trees just embraced sherwood road..it was like a tunnel going thro it!
