......LHS News......
Originally sent Feb. 9

I am so sorry I overlooked the passing of Dan Wesley Weaver, Sr., 77, of Groves, TX. Dan is sister to our '59 classmate Sharon (Weaver) Burgamy. Dan was born in Lawton and was probably a LHS grad...maybe '48 -'49? He passed away on Feb. 5 and funeral services were Thursday Feb. 7 in Groves with a grave side service to be held later.
In addition to Sharon, Dan is survived by brothers Jerry and Warren, two daughters and a son.Our sympathies are with Sharon and her family at this difficult time.

I have received this info from Pat White - class '52 - about reunions coming up:
In regard to LHS Reunions, it's a bit confusing for Class of '52 because there are two reunions this year. The classes of '52, '53, '54 have been having a 5 year reunion and this is the year for that, which will be July 25-26th.
Running $50 each, but that pays for Fri night BBQ at Ramon John's and banquet Saturday night at upstairs ballroom at Best Western. If I understand correctly, the ones planning this event are saying it is all or nothing...can't divide the cost and just come to one or the other event. This runs $100 per couple whether you attend one or both events.

The other event is the reunion for the LHS classes of '49 through '52 that have been meeting each year for a reunion and this one is scheduled for Saturday Sept 13th at Museum of the Great Plains with catered meal and I think this one is $25 each. The LHS Class '52 is tentatively planning on Fri night get-together for Friday night Sept 12th with no reservations and each pay for their own meal in a private room somewhere like we did last year.
Also, Best Western will have some suites a class can reserve for Saturday morn on their own for July 26th if desired. Lengthy explanation and committees are still meeting before notices are mailed.
For more info on these events: Johnna (Adams) Hopper at: jomama@sbcglobal.net or Pat (Banks) White: petepat@att.net

Class 1958 - 50 Year Reunion is scheduled for August 15-16. kennetheeaston@yahoo.com

I visited briefly with '59 classmate Ernest Godlove this very day while lunching at Burgess. (THE place to be on Saturday).We discussed our "50th" which will be here before we know it. Anyone interested in heading up an early exploratory committee?

Don't forget your sweetie this V- Day!

Beautiful weather has moved back in.......Georgia

Correction: Caught it just after I sent it (above email). The email I gave for reunions classes '49-'54.......I said was Johnna Hopper...actually...email is for Jo (Van Stone) Riley...one for Pat is correct. Sorry 'bout that!!!!! Jo Riley: <
