Comments: The class of '63 recently lost two of the nicest people I have ever known. Pat Rogers was always the smartest and sweetest person I knew and she had a really great smile. David Renfro was a longtime friend since we were in the Cub Scouts together. I used to ride my bicycle from my house on Volga (east of Lancaster Rd) past Lisbon Elementary, down Ann Arbor to David's house which was close to Marsalis. We would then sell Coca Cola bottles at the 7-11 next to Polar Bear for a nickel and buy Topps Bubble gum baseball cards. Great times with great friends. God Bless them!

I agree with you Pat. Pat was such a lovely person. We must all be turning 80 or close to. As I complain about it and how fast it seemed to happen, I stop and remember some of us didn’t have the privilege of living to 80.

Comments: Theresa Morgan Mayfield called me today to inform us that David Renfro passed on March 2, 2025. He moved to Florida to be close to his son. A Celebration of Life will be in Albuquerque, NM.

Comments: I am so sorry to hear about Pat. I always enjoyed visiting with them at our reunions. I have a few cousins that lived in Red Oak, and I think everyone in that small town knew the Robinsons.

Comments: I am asking for prayers of strength for Gary Leverett, as he and my son make their way to Seattle Saturday. They are going to see Gary’s only child Dawn who was diagnosed with SMA a few years ago, but now has been placed on Hospice care. A very debilitating disease where she cannot even hold a pencil or ability to walk on her own. This will be a difficult and emotional trip On both of them. Please keep them in your prayers. Thank you.

Comments: For the past 14 years I've been horsing around with a metal detector as a fun hobby. Recently, I ran across a 2016 metal detecting story in the Dallas Morning News that had a SOC connection. Some of you may remember Frank Goodloe from the Class of 1961. Frank passed away in 2022. Turns out he has a younger brother Roy from the Class of 1966. Here is the treasure hunting story involving Roy.
