2008.01.15 Tuesday Quarterly
Meeting at the SageBrush in Asheboro: (Pictures may be found at http://donredding.smugmug.com/gallery/4178356 )
We had about 35 people present and I forgot to take notes. Off the top
of my head: I remember that Tommy Warren had passed away earlier
this week and his funeral was this day in Georgia. A few special
moments were shared about memories of Tommy: his big smile, his
haircut, his very shiny shoes, and just a great guy. Edna Faye
Pugh Cobb is having double knee surgery 01/16/08 (and the report
is that she is doing well, lot of pain, is sedated, and will be in the
hospital there for a couple of weeks). Nolan Galloway
lost his son around the end of the year. Gary Hicks was with us
and in good spirits coming off surgery 10 days ago.
(See Lloyd's email for more details on
addresses, etc.) Betty Stout Albright was to have surgery
soon. Can someone remind me if we heard from Edwina.
Lloyd and Ann Hamlet were thanked for handling
our email connection. They are asking that we help
in getting correct addresses for everyone. A few emails have
been returned, as well as some of the postcards sent to those without
email. We decided to meet on Tuesdays with next meeting back
at Sagebrush in Asheboro on April 22nd. Eddie Wilkes led the
business part of the meeting and he is good at keeping it
brief. Charlotte led us in prayer as we remembered our
classmates. Please let me know what I forgot to include here. dsr
Happy
New Year!

- GOOD NEWS!!!! After an extended layoff, we will resume our
luncheons on Thursday, September 20. We will meet at the Sagebrush
Restaurant located in the mall complex on East Dixie Drive in Asheboro.
Plan to be there by 11:30. Sagebrush needs to know by September 15 how
many to plan for. Call Nancy Hall or email her if you plan to attend.
You may also call or email Lloyd Hamlet.
MORE GOOD NEWS!!!! You should have already received the information on the DVD of the 50th reunion that Charlotte has ready. If not, contact her.
EVEN MORE GOOD NEWS!!!! We all know how special our class is. All of you should know that Lloyd, Eddie, and Don Redding have stepped up to the plate and have taken charge of arrangements (securing locations, planning, and getting out information). They deserve our thanks for all their hard work. They have truly been the driving force for the resumption of our luncheons.
NOW YOU MAKE SOME MORE GOOD NEWS!!!! If you possibly can, come on the 20th. As usual, there will be the camaraderie that is so special with our class. You don't want to miss out on that. If you know of someone who has not been a regular, give him/her a call and urge them to attend. Let them know what they will be missing. Be sure to mark your own calendar and come with news and pictures. Most of all, however, bring your love for the best class to ever graduate from AHS.
Blue Comet Love....Diana

June 27, 2007 Wednesday
Ole Deli Asheboro Planning Session -
Great to see 37 eager AHS '55 ers
and sounded like we made some real steps forward to making
sure we
stay in touch. Eddie ran a smooth meeting, and we thanked Janet,
Bette
Lee , Diana, Eddie, Nancy York, and others for all their
help
in keeping us organized over the years. We also thanked the Brookshires
for the
fun times over several years at their lake home. (Any one else
have a
lake house or big yard/house for the future?)
We agreed to a 10 member
calling committee and filled it promptly, after thanking Diana and
Bette Lee
and Eddie for making so many calls and getting a big turnout. this
time.
We agreed we want to keep quarterly meetings on Wednesdays
or
Thursdays. Date in month to be determined
The next
meeting will be at the Sagebrush restaurant in Asheboro. Its on Dixie
Dr. in front of the mall.
We want to participate in the Homecoming this year similar to last
year.
Nancy Hall reported our treasury is in good shape, yeh!
Our next meeting probably in September will be at the Stagecoach (I think that is name)
Lloyd Hamlet volunteered (ANN) to send out cards and emails on
coming
events. Don Redding agreed to keep up the addresses on line and provide
LLoyd
with address info. Also Don asked everyone to check the site at www.donredding.com/ahs.htm
for address
info, pictures, and other info (maybe news such as this) and let him
know corrections needed. He cannot tell the
name of people checking, but he can tell how many check so we hope
to see
more use in the future as a way of confirming it is worth the effort to
do it
this way; otherwise we need a volunteer to go back to the old way of
keeping
and printing and mailing lists periodically. You need the User
name and password ( ask don, though he reminded all at the
meeting, and think presidential, all small letters) for
more
confidential into on the web pages.
At the meeting we discussed the need for a "Health and
Happiness" person to share with us life's major moments as Janet has
done
for so many years. The feeling was that someone living in Asheboro should do this, Please think about
this and
volunteer if you are able. I suggest you discuss this opportunity with
Eddie.
- (If I missed something in the meeting, let me know to
correct.)
If
you are interested, please check the links on this page so you
are familiar with what we have. If
you want to help with this site let me know. I am using Microsoft
Access for the
address list and birthday lists. I use a basic html editor for the web
pages (specifically WebEditor 6). Our pictures are on my
smugmug site at http://donredding.smugmug.com/School/42865
(Click here)
Smugmug is the best site I have found for pictures. It give you a
chance to
view pictures in a lot of ways so mess around with various
"styles."
For videos, I have found a new site called PhotoBucket which to me is
better than YouTube so check out at http://s191.photobucket.com/albums/z128/donredding/School/AHS%201955/ (Click
here) Unfortunately viewing Smugmug and Photbucket
without cable makes it too much of a chore, so be
warned. With cable it is reasonably fast. Notice you can make
pictures much
larger or much smaller on Smugmug by changing to "original" or
""small" etc..
I have just started experimenting with PhotoBucket so I have much to
learn there. 9:54
Ole Deli Asheboro Planning Session -
Great to see 37 eager AHS '55 ers on 6/27 as we made progress in
making sure we stay in touch.
See what happened at the meeting and at
the same time test whether our AHS
web site works for you.
Please go to the following link and let me know if our AHS web site opens; if you cannot get it to work, let me know what happens (as specifically
as you can) and we will figure out what to
do.

Thanks
