Comments:

I am wondering about a good friend, Sally Askerooth- that graduated with me in 1961.

School Story:

I have taught pre-school for many years, am now retired. I live in a small town in Minnesota and have connected with some classmates, but wonder about my good friend, Sally Askerooth.
I often think about dear Mr. Levi Osterhus- my home room and speech teacher. He was a gentle soul and was treated badly- still bothers me.

I will be visiting Naples (my favorite place, also), unless my daughter Paula's cancer does not go into remission. I would love to have lunch with you in that beautiful atmosphere and chat about our adventures of youth! I would bet your art is wonderful! I will call you if I get to Paradise...usually in February or March.

Happy Birthday on February 7th! Amazing that you and John Thomas have the same birthday- are you related to him? Have a special day!

So interesting to see that you have worked with autism. I have an 18 year old autistic grandson that is non verbal. His behaviors escalated within the last year and is currently at a crisis center and will be transitioned to a new group home in July. It's been a rough road but we are hopeful. Thanks for being one of the people that cares and gives so much to our afflicted kiddos. Happy Birthday!

I have memories of you in a long cardigan and white and red saddle shoes. Funny, how those images pop up in one's mind. Have an extraordinary birthday!

Happy April Fool's Day from a tall handsome blond admirer. Oops, got that wrong...its Valentines Day...so happy Valentines Day from a shorter, plainer, grayer admirer. John

Hi Pam- I think of you often. I get to Naples during the winter and would love to see you- 'tho I have no idea where Dora is. Hope you are happy and doing well.
