Hi, Y'all! Thanks so much for posting the pictures!!

I have an odd request for while you're gathered. A note about Spring River Zoo caught my eye a few days ago & I thought - surely can't be the one in Roswell? But it was. And it described animals (bears & foxes in particular) in concrete habitats just as they were when we were kids - over 50 years ago.

Well, the article was by PETA & I wrote after doing a tad of "my own research," & said you must be wrong. Furthermore this is a municipal zoo, not a roadside zoo. I finally got their attention, and - da**! They were right!

If anyone wants to take a trip down memory lane to the zoo & confirm: https://support.peta.org/page/34513/action/1?locale=en-US, then perhaps we as a class could put pressure on the Spring River Zoo to accept offered funds to make humane improvements. I can't think of anything more appropriate from current & former [Rocketed] Coyotes than to help out our brother & sister bears & foxes!

With hugs to all,
Robin

Thank you so much for this information, Robin. I went to the link and signed up. It is ablosutely horrible how those poor animals the Lord entrusted to us, to be treated that way. Roswell's people should of put a stop to this LONG AGO. I posted it on FB as well.

I have been running ideas in my head all week about what to post about the 55th reunion. Of course it was a great treat to just be with friends, but it was much, much more than that. In our current pandemic ordeal with so much change, anger, loss and loneliness, it was a sweet emotional high for me. Mostly, we see each other so seldom, that those of you who were such an important part of making me are forgotten. But leading up to, during, and after being with the group, the memories come flooding back in waves of joy, laughter, sadness, and loss.

I heard my little sister and a couple of spouses comment that this class seemed to really like each other and enjoyed being together. I sensed that as well.

My only regret is that I was so engrossed with a few folks, that I didn't get around to seeking out others. I just ran out of time (and energy).

THANKS & Well done! --from me to our organizers, promoters, and workers for making it so easy to join in a fantastic reunion experience. I am proud to be a part of the Roswell class of '66.

Also, it would be nice if someone would label the picture with names at the bottom. Some people don't look exactly like that did in high school , which makes it hard to know who's who.

MaryLou, thank you for the suggestion but I couldn't expand it so I got my magnifing glass out and still had no luck......It isn't a good one anyway. I couldn't EVEN find Jimmy White! Maybe someone who is more tecnically advanced with PC's could do it and as Terry Boone said, also give the names, maybe according to the row! I SURE SAW THE ALIEN!!!!!!

Can you share the class photo that one can expand? I have a hard time seeing the individuals, too!

See if the class picture on the home page will expand. And if so and you know the classmates without names, please let us know.

Can someone make the photo ID class picture of the 55th reunion where we can enlarge it to read the names? Sorry to be a bother. My eyesight (even trying with a magnifying glass) is poor. Thanks for your efforts. I have a pretty good list. I just need for some of the people to identify those who are around them to get most of the names.

Front row (l-r): Rita Parnell Rhymes (?), Jim Napier, Linda White Johnson,Jeff Arthur, Pat Soleman, Mary Francis Sallee Salyards, Pam Berry Davis, Charlotte Ruffin McKay, Larry Blount (in front next to alien), Tiny Dunlap Moran, Donna Kirkenbuel, Molly Orr Crockett, Betsy Frisinger Stormont, Karen Harrington Ream, Doreen Williams, Karen McCarty Fink, Roger Price, Jim White, Paul Zielinski, Mary Ann Coons McCullough.

Back row (l-r): Keith Burks, Billy Sloan, Dale Frost, Tom Alexander, Mike Shannon, Robert Newport, ______________ (male), Dickie Davis, _______________ (male covered by Tiny Dunlap), Robert Oyler, Roger Carl, Jim Sanders, Bob Ream , Denny Hunter, George Hunker, _____________ (male), John Rommell.

I guess at the people with (?) by their names. Those name may not be right.

Can any of those who were there fill in the blanks about those people standing around them?

Mary Frances Sallee (Salyards)

Sorry, Roger. I knew your last name started with a "C". My brain was not "in gear". I recognize Robert now that you say his name. Thanks.

Hello, Doris! Maybe I can help a little to fill in some of the blanks In the picture. Standing to the right of Linda (White) Johnson is Jeff Arhur, then Pat Soleman, I am to the right of Pat - Mary (Sallee) Salyards. Lois (Whited) Lorentz was not able to attend. I myself did not get the opportunity to get around to seeing everyone there, which I regret, but maybe there will be another opportunity. Loved seeing the ones I was able to visit with. Thanks, hope all are doing well!
