Nancy and I passed up a day at an amusement park with 143 squealing kids (plus the rest of the world) and drove to Long Island where we enjoyed a marvelous afternoon and evening with a classmate I had not seen in 46 years! (You notice a theme to these mini-reunions? -- Want to celebrate one? Just let me hear from you, and if our travels take us within a few hundred miles, we'll happily make the detour and enjoy seeing you)
Roger Kinsey and his beautiful wife Lynn (who can REALLY cook up a storm!) entertained us wonderfully, in every sense of the word! Roger taught elementary school for 30 who knows how many years, and Lynn taught for several years before moving to school administration, on the way earning a Doctorate... We enjoyed shop talk, but as our time together passed, the Taft stories began to flow, and we laughed until our sides split.
This is definitely the part of being Class Secretary I enjoy the most! Reconnecting with friends from Taft, long apart, but never out of mind and heart. (Well, I may be out of my mind, but that is a different matter for a different time!) Hope we can all enjoy more get-togethers like we enjoyed with Roger ande Bo... 46 years is too long to wait or to hold on to negatives. Give me a call and let's have some fun together!
