I cannot believe what a beautiful woman you turned out to be! We were "best buds" in high school and it's so much fun and rewarding to see you now. Fondly, Joan

I don't remember James, but after reading his obituary, I feel I really missed out.  We should all hope that our obit is as touching.

Mary: I am so, so sorry for your loss. I wish Stan and I could have done something to make this easier. If you are interested in being active w/ MDA and/or ALSA, let us know; there are never enough volunteers. Best wishes, Joan

Yo, Debbie.................Great to hear from you...........what the hell are you doing in Montana??? I think you told me, but I don't remember (actually, I remember much of anything).
Photo below was taken about a month ago; not too bad for an old broad, I s'pose. I am still working. My boss is my husband and he won't let me quit! He is Chairman of the Dept. of Neurology at Houston Methodist Hospital and Director of the Houston Methodist Neurological Institute, so he's "sort of a big deal," as I like to tease him. We've only been married for 15 years, and well worth the wait!!!
Except for the glasses, you look the same Debbie. Keep in touch, OK?
I guess you know Virginia died of lung cancer in about 1995. She was a mess.
Robin retired to a city in Mexico and is very happy. She's doing stand-up comedy which doesn't surprise me at all.

Dan.............guess who?! ?! I'm reminded of the time Virginia and I visited you guys at Camp Pendleton.....we went to some "cook your own steak" place; probably 1964 or 65. At least my remote memory is somewhat intact. I turned 70 in Feb.......kinda sucks but better than not turning 70, I s'pose. This is the first picture I've posted on this site; I'm extremely computer illiterate. I didn't mean for the photo to be so big!!! I'm still working as a physician assistant at Houston Methodist Neurological Institute. Fortunately, I work for my husband who is the Chairman, so at 5:00, he starts working for me :-). You appear to be healthy and happy!!!! I missed the 50th reunion, but maybe we'll have another, and we can chat!!!!

OMG................Hi, Pat!!!! And Happy Birthday! I still haven't figured out how to read the profiles (I am so-o-o-o computer challenged, it's embarrassing!!!).Since I can't read your profile, please drop me a "comment," and maybe (just maybe) I can figure that out. I am living in Houston, married to the best guy in the world. Also still working............for that "best guy in the world" (maybe I need to rethink that description!). I am a certified physician assistant (since 1975...YIKES) and my husband, Stan, is chairman of the Dept. of Neurology at Houston Methodist Hospital and Director of the Houston Methodist Neurological Institute in the medical center. I don't look too bad for an "old lady," I s'pose, but then the vision is fading, so I probably don't see myself as clearly! One of these days, I 'll figure out how to add a photo. Would love to hear from you, Pat!!!!!
