gone.” |

From Richard Dawes (NNHS / HHS - '62) of VA - 03/24/08:
Wrong button? remember Bcc. ');
BOY HOWDY!!! I couldn't figure out what went wrong, but my computer went totally berserko just after I hit "Send". I thought I had accidentally changed some settings, but no, I had just sent over 500 addies to all of y'all - just like in a bad dream. Once I realized that, I thought - hoped - that perhaps the filters would block all of y'all from getting any notification at all, but nooooo.......
The moral to the story is - never try to do something such as this when you may be suddenly distracted.
Oh, no - that is any given moment for me, isn't it?!?
Sigh. My deepest apologies to all of y'all.
Thanks, Dicky Darlin'!
From Ruth Ann Reece Horace ('67) of FL - 03/24/08:
I recently found your
site thanks to
Marty (Whitmore McCoy - '67 - of VA) and I have to ask if you are
LDS too?
Why, yes, ma'am, I am!
For
41 years and 24 days now!

At one point I decided to count heads and see how many among the 500 or so of us on that mailing list were also Latter-day Saints, and found there were about 25 or so of us - not counting two who have passed over to the other side of the veil.
Prior to their deaths,
Drum Major
Larry Crickenberger
('58)
and my brother-in-law (and Bishop),
Miles Nowitzky (Granby HS - '50), were also regular subscribers:

Thanks, Ruth Ann!
Wait a minute - stop the train - I think I'm having a flashback. What was your mama's name??
From My #2 Daughter-in-Law,
Bethany Winona Harty
(Siuslaw HS, OR - '94) of OH - 03/24/08 - "New
WordArt for tomorrow":
Brent (Harty
- Hillsboro HS,
IL - '90 - of OH) told me yesterday
that I was turning into you. I took that as a compliment. heheheh
He says I talk about wordart like you do about the newsletter. We can't help it if we're so popular, and people like to send us stuff!
... Do you have any funny quotes -
about
anything?? Nothing specific
that I'm looking for... It doesn't have to be a quote, just a funny saying, or
something you say... For instance, from last week we had, "Caffeine is not a
drug, it's a vitamin." That was funny.
"A girl's father is the first man in
her life, and probably the most influential."
- David Jeremiah
Perhaps we could ask for others in the newsletter??
So they then use the new joint venture on their own blogs or whatever??

short sayings for you!

From Gloria Woolard Price (Hampton HS - '65) of FL - 03/24/08:
Thank you for sending the article about the demolition of Riverside Hospital......where I was born, in there twice for pneumonia (first and second grade), and had my tonsils removed. When I was home last October, my sister (Nat Woolard Cunningham, Hampton HS '60), and I took Mama for a ride and went by there. I told my sister to stop, so I could jump out and take pictures.......now, of course, I'm soooo glad I did.
Another nostalgic memory gone! :(
It's
always a good thing to follow those promptings Gloria. I'm glad you did, too!
Thanks!

From Chandler Nelms (Hampton HS - '63)
of MD - 03/25/08:
Tearing down the old Riverside Hospital. How sad. This would break my parents' hearts if they were still alive. That is where they met....or should I say "re-met".
Originally,
Dr. Nelms,
who had just graduated from medical school at
UVA, took over a
practice from an aging doctor in Mathews County. He became my mother's family
doctor when she was 13. Years later, after WWII and his divorce from his first
wife (my two step-brothers' real mother), he re-met my mother (when I was 7 or
8) who was in nursing training at Riverside.
Besides his practice at the corner of Kecoughtan and Elizabeth Road, he was on staff at Riverside. She had been a stay-at-home mom when she divorced my biological father (who was also a doctor and a graduate from UVA) when I was 4, so she decided to go into nursing.
And the rest, as they say, is history.
WOWZERS! Thank
you, Chandler Darlin'!

From Dave Spriggs ('64) of VA -
03/25/08 - "Class of 1963 Reunion":
I don't recall seeing it mentioned in
Barbara's
(Fritsche Barnes - '63 - of VA) newsletter entries; are they having an open
reunion?
D
Well, now that you mention it,
David, I don't really know!
She invited me,
but as you know, classes
often invite me to join them free of charge as their guest in return for
services rendered in free advertising, help in locating "lost" classmates, and
general excitement building.
So I just don't know! Oh, Barbara.....
Thanks, Brown Eyes!

Angel Baby
(Rosie & the Originals)
It's just like heaven being here with you
You're like an angel too good to be true
But after all, I love you, I do
Angel Baby, my Angel Baby
When you are near me my heart skips a beat
I can hardly stand on my own two feet
Because I love you, I love you, I do
Angel Baby, my Angel Baby
Oooh, I love you, ooooh I do
No one could love you like I do
oooooooooh oooooooooh oooooooh ooooooh ooooh ooooh oooooooh ooooh oooh
Please never leave me blue and alone
If you ever go I'm sure you'll come back home
Because I love you, I love you, I do
Angel Baby, my Angel Baby
It's just like heaven being with you dear
I could never stay away without you near
because I love you, I love you
I do, Angel Baby, my Angel Baby
Oooooh, I love you, oooh I do. No one could love you like I do.
