HBD (a day late, again) JJ!
I hope you had a nice celebration of your anniversary of joining the Octo Club.
Mine has been fun and went by so fast. Ken is 87 and Kay is 82 and we are all doing well. Our grandmother lived to 97 so we hope we have her genes! Best wishes to you and family for another fun trip around the sun!

HBD Gay,
Hope 2024 is treating you well. As I said a year ago, you share that birthday with my buddy John Albers, but you are a year older. I had a nice phone call with him yesterday. 2024 has been a bummer so far with so many of our classmates passing on. I am doing well (new lens in my right eye makes things much clearer!) My brother Ken is 87 and just had a small hole in his heart repaired via an artery, and went home the next day! Amazing technology! Kay is still in FL, but came for a visit to MI in October. I am staying busy and Pat and I are trying to downsize and get rid of things we don't need. Hope your birthday was fun and we will stay in touch.

Merry Christmas, Gay,
I was reminiscing about some cold snowy days in Spfld and thought I would pass one along. One night (early) there was about 8" of snow on the ground and it was coooollld. The doorbell rang and it was Floyd, Phil, and couple of other guys. They had just wrecked their toboggan and were a little beat up but in good spirits. After some hot cider, all was well.
Hope you have a peaceful and enjoyable new year.

So glad to hear from you that all is well. We missed you at the Reunion. We had a great time! Gay and I were talking about you yesterday! We’re your ears burning! ??
Holy Cow, Nick, you're actually coming to a re-union! Can't wait to see you and meet your bride, Joette.
Hi Bonnie,
Welcome to the Octo Club! I joined on Earth Day (4/22) and so far so good. I have been retired for 14 years and still try to get lots done every day. I hope you are retired by now too, although a good nurse is very valuable these days. Stay well and active. Best wishes and I hope your day was special.
Happy Birthday Cheryl! Welcome to the Elegant 80’s!!

Hope to see you and Dave at the 55th reunion in Springfield. Bruce@cnopet.com
I was a transfer student to Springfield High my sophamore year from Nashville, Tennessee. I had played freshman football in Tennessee and went out for football at Springfield. I quickly became a curiosity on the football field with my southern accent, and I'll always remember coach Tozer's comment to me that the furthest south they ever had a player was from South 6th Street!
