Always regret the loss of classmates. Our sympathies are with their families.
From the eMailbag:
"Thanks for the information on Charley Haselwander. I remember him from Wayne's. He always gave me a wave when I was there. I use to see his car parked on 10th and B. I believe it was an aqua marine blue Chevrolet Chevelle, about 1965. Your right about being stuck in the fifties. He never change his clothing style. I never knew his name, but I immediately knew who you were talking about. Bob Looney
An email from Ron Sheffield says the weather is great out Monterey, CA way. Ron is back home but still keeping an eye on his 'baby'......the Hubble Telescope!!!!
For some unknown reason, plans for a reception to celebrate the 100th birthday of Washington School, did not materialize. Some Washington grads have expressed interest in taking it upon themselves to organize some kind of event or recognition. Washington and LHS grad Mike Johnson (Dallas), is wanting to get something going. IF you would like to help - and Mike will need feet on the ground here in Lawton - you can let Mike know at: mmj700@sbcglobal.net or call (469) 360-5247.

Some from the class of 1954 are planning a BIG 'mini-reunion' in April in San Antonio and here is latest info from Barbara (Dallan) Rhea. This group has a lot of activities planned and these dates coincide with the annual Fiesta!~
"Some of us LHS grads are getting together April 22, 23, & 24. If you are interested in coming to San Antonio then, we would like to hear from you. There are several parades with many floats and Fiesta Queens in glamorous gowns. Lots to do and see including the history of the Alamo and the missions. We have set up some reservations so contact one of us for more information and schedule of activities."
Some will be staying at the Drury Plaza Hotel, and here is a link for reservations at our group rate:https://wwws.druryhotels.com/Reservations.aspx?groupno=2082112
Please make reservations by Monday, March 22 to receive our group rate, and the sooner the better, considering how popular Fiesta is. But you are also free to make your own arrangements.

Part of the restoration/renovation of the Old High School/Central has been completed but a lot remains. Some city offices have moved or will be moving to the building. Last week a buffalo statuary was added to the landscape of the building. Looks quite nice on the southwest corner (9th and C). Will look much better when all the grass sod and plant life greens up. (pix above).
Have a great week-end.......Georgia

Did they build a museum in the restored old LHS? I have a 1922 Lore yearbook I would like to donate.
