Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
This is the third running of this theme, simply because it's one of my all-time favorite songs - ranking very high on my list of 500 or so All-Time Favorite Songs. And HEY - I didn't use it at all last year!

Dear Coworkers, Friends and
Family,
This year, hundreds of thousands of people
will hear the words “You have breast cancer." There’s a chance that
some of them will be people we know and love. I have chosen to fight
back against this disease and help make a difference by participating
in the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer
walk … and I hope you will join me.
Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is our opportunity to honor and
celebrate breast cancer survivors, educate women about early detection
and prevention, and raise money to fund lifesaving research and
support programs to help fight breast cancer. But Making Strides is
more than just the name of a walk, it describes the amazing progress
we can make if we work together to defeat this disease.
Below is a link to my personal page. I hope you will visit my site and
sign up to join my team. If you prefer, you can start your own team,
sign up to walk as an individual, or make a donation. Hope starts with
me and it can continue with you. Please join my team and walk with us
to experience an incredible day of inspiration and meaning, and to
provide hope for all people facing breast cancer.
To join me now, use this link to visit my personal page. Sincerely, Rena Rose |
If ever
there were a cause more applicable to our group.....
Thanks so much, Janice - and Rena!

Hi Carol,
Thank you for your fine work on ALL of the Memorials you add to our NNHS
Newsletter. Take a rest, you deserve a break. Reuben and I Thank You so very
much for including his Mother. You did a wonderful job !
Sepi and Reuben Prichard
Thank you, Sepi.
I'm glad y'all liked it. It was my privilege to make that. We're all
family here, and families honor their own.

From Steve Pullen ('65) of VA - 09/24/07:
Carol -
None of the pages have come up today. Cannot access them.
I have no idea how this is happening, Stevie, but as no one else has reported any difficulty, and this is the second time you've had the difficulty, I'm beginning to suspect your Spam Filters at Work.
The only thing I can recommend is that you use the announcements as a general notification that something is new and ready, check either the Site Map and/or the Newsletter link, and see if something bears a newer date:
http://www.nnhs65.00freehost.com/SITE-MAP.html
http://www.nnhs65.00freehost.com/NNHS-Newsletters-2007.html
Sorry, Steve - technical difficulties are waaaay over my head. In this as well as in many other areas, I know of only two conditions - broken and fixed.
I prefer fixed.
Thanks, Steve!
From Gloria Woolard Price (Hampton HS - '65) of FL - 09/24/07:
Thanks
for the birthday wishes.
I actually haven't worked for the Air Force since 2000, when I took another
federal job. But my Air Force "days" were all good ones.
And what is wrong with that senior picture......did I send that bad scan?
I spent a marvelous birthday in NY City and
Long Island with my sister,
Nat
(Woolard) Cunningham (Hampton HS '60), and my best friend for 40 years,
Kathy
(Mooney) Abrams (Hampton HS '64). Kathy treated us to limousine rides,
the Sex and the City bus tour, and she and I saw Chorus Line on
Broadway. Also went to a bar owned by the actor Chris Noth (Mr. Big in
Sex/City and on Law & Order). We didn't see him, tho. It was a wonderful way
to celebrate the Big 6-0.......and now I'm going to start the backward
count......next year, 59, then 58......you get the idea. :)
"New Yawk City?!?"
SUPER-DE-DUPER!!!
Congratulations, Gloria!
From My Friend, Judy, of IL - 09/24/07 - "Buzzards, Bats, Bees, & People!":
If you put a buzzard in a pen that is 6' x 8' and is entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of 10-12'. Without space to run, as is its habit, it will not even attempt to fly, but will remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top.
BAT
The ordinary bat that flies around at night, a remarkably nimble creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is shuffle about helplessly and painfully until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash.
BUMBLEBEE
A bumblebee, if dropped into an open tumbler, will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but persists in trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely destroys itself.
PEOPLE
In many ways, we are like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee. We struggle about with all our problems and frustrations, never realizing that all we have to do is look up. Sorrow looks back, worry looks around, but faith looks up. Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us.
May your troubles be less, your blessings more, and may nothing but happiness come through your door.
These are very interesting thoughts to ponder, Judy - thanks so much!
From Sepi Dinwiddie Prichard ('58)
of NC - 09/24/07 - "Toilet Seats, Toothbrushes and GERMS":
As for the Martha Stewart cover for
the top, well....let's just say I'll bet they didn't let her do that at Camp
Cupcake, she tried but remember that 'thing' she had wrapped around her
shoulders when she got out of 'detention' ? I heard from Meg Scott Phipps
(former Agriculture Commissioner for North Cackalacky) by way of the
grapevine, that it wasn't really a ladies wrap, but an enlarged toilet seat
cover they wouldn't let her use in her cell, so a friend made it bigger so she
could put it to good use. Have you seen any pictures of her wearing it lately
?

Dear Carol,
In happiness and sorrow, in health and recovery, you are truly a Typhoon for All
Seasons!

Oh, WOWZERS,

From Johnnie Bateman ('67/'70) of VA
- 09/25/07 - "Our baby pics":
| Carol, Thought you'd like this also. I wonder if anyone can guess it's Sandi (Bateman Chestnut - '65 - of VA) and me. Anyway, enjoy. Respectfully, Johnnie Bateman |

| Johnnie and Sandi Bateman |
AWWW
- how adorable! Thanks so much,
Johnnie!
From Johnnie Bateman ('67/'70) of VA
- 09/25/07 - "Another concern":
Carol,
In 1970 I only had two classes each semester that year; however, I did graduate
with that class and felt very much accepted by this fine class. I wouldn't want
to step on any toes of the ones that are more involved in setting up reunion
arrangements etc.
I know Warren Crisp,
Carol Anne Comer Cutler, Jennie
Alexander, Brenda DePaula, and a few others have been more involved than I and
they do one fine job.
Also, hopefully
Sandi (Bateman Chestnut - '65 - of VA) won't mind you
posting our baby pic.
I love what you do with this 1965 page.
May God Bless You,
Sincerely and Respectfully,
Johnnie
Oh, Johnnie, how could Sandi possibly object to that precious picture?!?
Ummm, you don't, do you,
Sandi?!?
Thanks again,
Johnnie!
From
Linda McKenna Sivilich
('66) of PA - 09/26/07 - "Hi ...is there something going on this Saturday?":
Dear Carol,
Is there something going on for NNHS graduates this Saturday in Buckroe?
Linda McKenna Sivilich
Yes, ma'am, the Big Birthday Party
for EVERYBODY - not even limited to NNHS grads - is indeed this very Saturday!
Just bring a dish of some sort and have fun.
Lefty Driesell has been at the last several parties. Last year was
the only one I've attended.
Evelyn Fryer Fish's Birthday Party for All of Us - 09/30/06
There were many people there from
the Class of 1958, of course, but there were also people there from 1956, 1957,
1959, 1961, 1962, 1964, 1965, and 1966 - and probably from other classes as
well. As we were leaving,
Cecil
Robinson (Hampton HS - '63) was just arriving. It seems to me that Bill
Rash ('67) (who lives right at Buckroe himself) told me that he and
his wife would be there this year, too.
From Carol Anne Comer Cutler
('70) of VA - 09/26/07 - "1971 In Memoriam":
No kidding? Well, Carol Anne, you know what they say, "A mind is a terrible thing to waste".....
I'm so sorry I missed this, and I do appreciate all your efforts to make the records as complete as possible, so I've added this at long last:

From
Me
('65) of NC - 09/24/07:
The Class of 1961 has lost three of its members since August 15th. In honor of them and the 19 others, I finally finished scanning the ten missing senior portraits for their In Memoriam page:

http://www.nnhs65.00freehost.com/memoriam-all.html
http://www.nnhs65.00freehost.com/memoriam61.html
I apologize for the fact that this has taken me so long - and I have yet to do the same for the Class of 1956, which is still missing 17 portraits.

Can you add my son, Brian, to your
Birthday List for September? Brian turned 24 on September 16th.

Autumn Leaves
French
lyrics by Jacques Prévert,
English lyrics by Johnny Mercer,
Music by Joseph Kosma
The falling leaves drift by the window,
The autumn leaves of red and gold.
I see your lips, the summer kisses,
The sun-burned hands I used to hold.
Since you went away the days grow long,
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song,
But I miss you most of all, my darling,
When autumn leaves start to fall.
C’est une chanson, qui nous ressemble
Toi tu m’aimais et je t’aimais
Nous vivions tous, les deux ensemble
Toi que m’aimais moi qui t’aimais
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s’aiment
Tout doucement sans faire de bruit
Et la mer efface sur le sable les pas des amants désunis
