SINCE OUR........
CLASS REUNION BACK IN OCTOBER 2002
WE HAVE LOST FOUR OF OUR DEAR CLASSMATES.....
FROG CLARK
BOBBY JOE HARLAN
DIANE DUKES GREEN
BARRY PRIEST
FLOWERS WERE SENT TO ALL FUNERALS AND MONEY HAS BEEN COLLECTED TO DO PLAQUES IN MEMORY OF THEM ALL INCLUDING
PLUS OUR DEAR FRIEND KAY ASHWORTH OF THE CLASS OF 1972 ALSO PASSED AWAY DURING THAT SAME TIME PERIOD. KAY WHO AT THE TIME (1972) WAS MARRIED TO DANNY WILKINS USE TO RUN AROUND WITH ARTIE DOSS, JACKIE SOMMERS, BOBBY HARLAN, FROG CLARK, AND JANICE JONES. SHE TOO WILL BE SADDLY MISSED BY THOSE OF US WHO KNEW HER WELL.
PLEASE PRAY THAT WE LOSE NO MORE AND I URGE ALL CLASSMATES TO GO HAVE A CHECK UP AT YOUR DOCTORS.
BOTH BOBBY AND DIANE DIED SUDDENLY OF HEART PROBLEMS ABOUT 7-9 DAYS APART. KAY ASHWORTH ALSO PASSED AWAY OF A SUDDEN HEART ATTACK NOT LONG AFTER BOBBY AND DIANE.
BARRY PRIEST WAS KILLED IN A FOUR WHEELING ACCIDENT WHILE RIDDING WITH DONNA BAIRD'S HUSBAND EDDIE RICHARDSON ON A SUNDAY EVENING NOT LONG AFTER KAY PASSED AWAY.
I REALLY HAD A HARD TIME WITH BOBBY'S CAUSE HE WAS UP AT THE RESTAURANT THAT SUNDAY AFTER NOON. AND THAT MADE JANICE JONES DEATH SEEM FRESH IN MY BRAIN AGAIN BECOUSE SHE TOO HAD BEEN UP AT THE RESTAURANT(CHANEY'S) ON A SUNDAY NITE AND DIED IN THAT JEEP ACCIDENT AT THE COAL MINES JUST HOURS LATER. ALSO BARRY PRIEST HAD TO RIDE PAST THE RESTAURANT THAT SUNDAY EVENING HE HAD HIS WRECK AT THE COAL MINES AND PASSED AWAY BECOUSE HE LIVED IN ROLLING ACRES SUBDIVISION BEHIND THE BOWLING ALLEY.
BUTI AM GOING TO REALLY MISS BOBBY CAUSE HE USE TO COME UP TO THE RESTAURANT ABOUT 3 OR 4 TIMES A WEEK TO EAT AND TALK IN HIS CAR ON THE PARKING LOT WHEN I WASN'T BUSY. AND NOW THATS LEFT A BIG WHOLE IN MY EVERY DAY LIFE.....
SO NOW EVERYTIME A BLUE VAN PULLS UP IN THE PARKING LOT I STILL GET MY PAD AND START OUT THE DOOR WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I REMEMBER ITS NOT HIM AND I GET THIS SINKING FEELING IN MY STOMACH.....
BOBBY JUST WENT TO SLEEP AND WHEN THEY WENT TO CHECK ON HIM AFTER MIDNITE HE WAS DEAD AND DIANE HAD NOT BEEN FEELING WELL AND JUST KEELED OVER.
SO PLEASE GO TO YOUR FAMILY DOCTOR AND GET A CHECK-UP....IF NOT FOR YOU DO IT FOR US CAUSE WE LOVE YOU........
AT THE MUSEUM(OLD CENTAL CITY HIGH SCHOOL GYM....
I WOULD LIKE TO THINK ALL WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THIS ENDEAVER..
IT SHOWS THE LOVE AND RESPECT WE HAVE FOR EACH OTHER NO MATTER HOW MUCH TIME PASSES.
IT SHOWS LOVE.....FROM US TO THEM...
