We met at the Sagebrush for our Spring meeting on Thursday, April 19, at 11:30 am. with about 35 people present. Eddie mentioned the Hibachi Grill closed and asked if  Sagebrush  for future meetings was ok and there was no objection. Don R said he called Peggy P and she said to tell everyone hello.Several of our classmates  mentioned as having medical issues. Lloyd asked that folks keep  him informed of any illnesses or issues and if they prefer not to share info on internet. Benny Vick told an entertaining story of Jim Tatum and Coach Hawkins; a recording of it is close by. We were glad to have several guests including Squency Nance and spouses of class members . . .(let me know any names, please)
