Hello Class of '69

sbrown_2 — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 23:19:41 -0400

Wow. 40 years? Where does the time go?
I would like to connect with some old friends if anyone remembers me. Maybe not. I kept a pretty low profile all through school.
A little about me:
I pursued a short (not my decision) military career after graduation and landed a Cartographic Drafting job shortly after being discharged. I am still in the same general business and have a great job in Albuquerque as a Geospatial Analyst and ISO Auditor for one of the largest Civil Engineering firms in the Southwest.

Time Flies.......

DoingMe — Tue, 12 Jun 2007 10:19:13 -0400

Wow....is all I can say. It seems as though the clock is on super-duper speed when it comes to life after high school! Although I love my life now, I kinda miss the days where all I had to worry about was do well in school and finish my chores at home! lol

Class of 73, 35th Renuion ?

snowbird2009 — Mon, 14 May 2007 03:54:34 -0400

Anyone out there giving thoughts to a 35th Reunion for the Class of 1973?
2008 will be here sooner than you think. Remember the older you get the faster time flies.

I opened up a dental office a couple years ago outside of Louisville, Ky and I just thought I would post the web site for it. If anyone is passing through on I-65/I-64/I-71, give me a call. You can make fun of my now southern twang, but no one here would consider it to be truly southern.

Class of 1972 35th reunion?

Dr. Clark Godshall — Fri, 26 Jan 2007 11:43:07 -0500

I am looking for assistance in organizing a 35th class reunion for the GC class of 1972. It has been 15 years since we gathered. Who out there is interested?

Great fun!

It's amazing that 40 years does not hinder friendships! This past weekend the attending classmates of the class of '66 gathered as if we had not been separated for so many years. The smiles of recognition (thanks to Sharon's name tags)and the hugs of greeting were filling the room.

Memories

Steve Thorn — Wed, 20 Sep 2006 23:14:06 -0400

Do you remember the snow storm of February 1966. School was out for about a week and a half. I think it was that storm that made me decide to move to a place with no snow. I've been in Florida now for 32 years. Just before the storm my parents left for a two week vacation to the Virgin Isands.No sooner after they left and the snow started. Soon snow plows were even stuck and left on Trabold Road. The snow drifted over the plows. Then there was the party while the folks were away. Lets see......Tom Haschmann, Jim Myers, Sandy Yeager, Barb (geessh I forget the last name). Boy did we get in trouble. I won't incriminate the "gang" but what a night after the party!!

Hi! I'm Roxanne Emens Cocuzzi, class of 1970 and have been elected as the president of the Gates Chili Alumni Association.

The organization gives a yearly scholarship to a graduating senior and is in the process of possibly selling bricks to commemorate the new addition to the high school.

Sorry, I'll be missing everyone!

Ginny Barley — Fri, 23 Jun 2006 10:03:49 -0400

Sorry, I had the dates of the reunion and my vacation in two different parts of my brain. I will miss y'all as I'll be visiting family in Rhode Island then off to Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard. My cousins set up the scheduling for the RI visit, then we tacked on the Cape Cod, MV part without realizing we were overlapping events.

Hi

terri2uus — Thu, 22 Jun 2006 21:40:50 -0400

Alumni Postcard - Not From Us!

sharon — Wed, 24 May 2006 10:59:22 -0400

I received a postcard in the mail the other day, from a private company - Harris Connect, mentioning the fact that Barbara Misiaszek, Gates Chili High School employee, had requested my updated alumni information. Then I got a couple of emails from other people who had received the same mailing. This mailing has not been generated by me or this website and we are not associated with the organization who has instituted the mailing.
