Comments: Heartfelt sympathy to Ouida Kennedy Wilson in the loss of her precious 92 year old mother! Please keep her in your prayers!
Comments: Lynell is the Czarina of the Internet...just ask me...ho! Uh, Seriously John and Lynell are the gurus of the Net! I on the other hand...well, never mind!
Comments: [all credit goes to Lynell for putting me on to the dusty archives of the Dallas Morning News]
Comments: John, your DMN historical archive access has cleared things up on more than one occasion! Thank you so much...that is such a great resource!
Comments: Bob Clifton, we had a Karen Rhae Drennan in the Class of '63. A pretty, quiet, musically talented girl that lived in the same neighborhood as Mary Lewis (we're talkin' Woodacre Dr. area again). She headed to East Texas State after high school and married in Dec. of 1969 (Nancy Taylor assisted her). If this link works you'll see the details and a photo of her: http://docs.newsbank.com/s/HistArchive/ahnpdoc/EANX/0FDECB1342D2C37E/0FC00B934DD580D0
Comments: that's KNEW, not NEW...of course you already know that1 
Comments: One more note...Karen Criswell Drennan, Woodrow Wilson ’76 is now 53 years old!
Comments: 47 years ago today my young bride(LaVeta) and I were married. My LOVE for you has grown more each year and I hope we get 47 more years!!!
Comments: Karen Drennan = The story http://www.chicktalkdallas.com/blog/?tag=karen-criswell-drennan The video of Karen Drennan can be found at http://video.dallasnews.com/services/player/bcpid110125598001?bctid=309142118001 and I never new this until about 3 or 4 weeks ago, but Adrea Fleming was pictured in Playboy in 1966, though not as you might think. Never sell your integrity! I love Adrea for being the lady she was known to be! So if you ever hear whispers about her "Playboy" thing...you have the truth! 
Comments: I was driving last sunday and had WBAP 820 on the radio and was kinda listening as I often do while thinking about whatever. A name from the distant past came on and my memory banks started whirring. The lady's name was Karen Drennan. I did not get all the particulars until I heard the name and what really caught my attention was that she said she was a Playboy Bunny to pay her college tuition. I remember the name and kinda remember her. Was she from your class or from '64? It's been a long time.
Comments: Just got the computer back from the Baylor Trauma Center. I've been without one for a week or so. Jud, I'll think of a lively topic or two. By the way Jud, Chere Houck is also a cousin, as was Travis Fitzgerald from '63. My grandmother on Mom's side was a Houck. Now I'm off to check on that SOC '62 Guestbook and see how its "repairs" are coming.
Comments: Um, to tell you the truth.........I don't recall. ha ha I didn't kiss many boys unless I was "going steady". If there are those of you out there who can contradict me then lets hear it!
Comments: Strange One, that it funny! There is a whole series of those videos for cat lovers. And, by the way, you sidestepped the kissing question.
Comments: Let's see, dress was cotton -- a blue and purple floral with dark green leaves, a fitted bodice, full skirt and sash made of blue and green solid fabric; Shalimar perfume; my friend Katherine was the lucky recipient of the details. I guess maybe it was a real kiss. No music, because that was inside the house. Spin the Bottle kisses were executed on the front porch of the prairie style house.
Comments: If you remember it after all these years, it was real enough. What were you wearing? Your perfume? Who were you dying to kiss but didn't get the chance? What song was playing? What girlfriend did you rush home to tell about it?
Comments: Precisely why we don't keep baseball bats lying around.
Comments: This is off the subject of first kisses, but I was just sent this and you cat lovers will love it and relate! Hilarious! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0ffwDYo00Q
Comments: Third grade. Fredda Mitchell. It might not have been a real kiss because I had to chase her on the playground at Elisha M. Pease and tackle her. I'm sure there was a dare involved. She will deny that it ever happened!
Comments: Maybe that wasn't a "real" kiss though.
Comments: Wayne Lambert, at a party at Judy Wilkins' grandmother's house on Clinton Street, seventh grade. Spin the bottle.
Comments: John, I have absolutely no memories of Mary. I looked her up in the '63 Den...and I didn't know her at all. Lucky for you. If I had known her, it would have been me kissing her, not you. Anyone else remember their first real kiss? Mine was either Gaylan Williams, Chere Houck, or Sharlene Houghtaling. I'm a little fuzzy on the timing.
Comments: John, her face was soooooooooo familiar, but I just couldn't put a name to her darlin face. I went to Boude Storey so I guess I just didn't know her well enough to remember her. She was such a cutie...we did wear those short shorts didn't we? I wish I could today, but Alas...NOT! HA HA.....She sure knew how to pose didn't she?. She is such a doll and you have your first kiss to remember!!!!
Comments: Wow, not a one of you could name the mystery girl I posted? The pic was of a young Mary Frances Lewis. Those of you from my old neighborhood might recall that she lived right next door to Jan Fincher. Uh, anybody remember Jan Fincher? Mary went thru Zumwalt and SOC with those of us who, uh, went to Zumwalt and SOC. Again, a big thanks to Dennis Wilson ('62) for providing the old photo and stirring up some old memories.
Comments: For anyone who plans to party down with the young people of the Class of '65, I added a link to the registration form on the Events page. A belated thank you to Peaches and Mary Kay for hosting the luncheon Saturday at BJ's. I wish I had another baked potato with grilled chicken, broccoli, cheese and Alfredo sauce. That's considered a vegetable, you know.
Comments: Good Morning all. Lynell, you are so proficient - I think you already have the information on your Events page - unless you want to move it up on the postings since the luncheon at BJs is now history. Anyone can obtain a registration form on the www.soc65.com site and mail in their form and money. We would love to have a large group of people show up from all the classes. As we continue to mature, there can never be anough time to still share time together. Hope many of you can make it. Have a great week everyone and try to stay cool. Yikes, it is hot out there!
Comments: All you lady Mad Men fans, put on your toreador pants and button-up-the-back cashmere cardigans with cute white cotton pique collars, (turn the AC way down first) and mix up that pitcher of Tom and Jerrys. Sip one while you put Luckies on every flat surface in your rumpus room. You fellows should wear suit pants, a thin tie (loosened,) and a white broadcloth shirt. It's a little over one hour till showtime!
Comments: Cynthia, thank you for your nice words. Everyone looked great, but you and I happened to discuss WW, so that's why I mentioned you in particular. I totally understand how easy it is to gain and how hard it is to get those pounds to go away. John, my mother would have KILLED me for having a picture like that made, so you know 'twasn't I. Plus, she is way cuter than I ever was. Can't believe you're clamming up about Chelsea's wedding. BTW, I invited Barbra to my wedding and she was a no-show there also. She missed out on some fine punch and cookies. There's going to be a big turnout for the '65 reunion. Cynthia, if you'll send me a file and an invite, I'll post it on our Events page.
Comments: Well John, you have me stumped. Thanks for sharing the photos Lynell. They came out realy nice. Thanks for your compliments as well on the wieght lose. You are so kind. I think there were a couple more folks looking a little slimmer as well - Peaches, Mary Kay and Martha to name a few. Looking good ladies! By the way, I handed out some registration forms yesterday. The class of 65 sincerely would love to have you join the upcoming activities over Labor Day weekend as we celebrate 45 years since our graduation. Please try to get your reservations into the mail by August 16th so we can count you in for the fun.
Comments: I can't comment on Chelsea's wedding, but I did receive a surprise in my email box this weekend. Dennis Wilson ('62) found an old photo in his ROTC footlocker and sent it along to me. We both had a romantic interest in this girl. She was my "first kiss" at about age 13 or 14 (the time when this photo was made). Can any of you identify her? 
Comments: So sorry to hear about David Splawn's wife. Every day we wake up in the morning is a true gift. I hope she rallies very soon. That's so hard for a family to go through. Southworth, how about a report on Chelsea's wedding? I know that's why we haven't heard from you for a few days. Don't miss the luncheon pictures on the Images page. |
