The classmate email " bounce list " 

This is a list of classmates that had, at some point, filled out contact information on this site. We now are getting "bounced" or return email from their listed address, meaning we dont have a good email for them. Some are due to jobs changes or cable provider changes. 

If you could please look down the list, and if you see someone here you know, contact them and let them know we need good email for them, so we can keep them informed on class activites and news. It will suck to find out about the reunion just before it happens

Annette Solomon (Shamas), Kyle Hooper, Mark Winslow, Diane Howley (Montoto), Jennifer French (McAlpin), Steve Shook, Anne Poehling (Weyler), Becky Palmer (Spitler), Marvelyn Kennedy, Glenn Michalski, Susan Weiskopf (Simmons), Alan Tiedeman, Sherri Andrews (Sabin), Jeff Luddeke, Lori Lerner (Langston), Andy Teel, Ron Day, Kris Hamman (Kelly) Lisa Gregston (Borger), Fred Munier, Karen Sorrells (Bowen), Doug Gheen, David Everett, Nancy Tumilty (White), John Choyce, Jean Hamby (Hinton), Kelley Calhoun (Bowers) Beth VanSickle (Keener), Dennis Thompson, Susan Contente, Mike Brimhall, Danise Bell (Cox), Peggy Lockett (Bruce) 

 

Thanks for the help in advance!

I'm Facebook friends with Mark Winslow.  He provided his email address for me to share with you: markwinslow@yahoo.com.

I also messaged Sherri Sabin to get her email address

Obituary from the July 28, 2019, Tulsa World. Former teacher, Jimmie Paul Brown, passed away peacefully in his sleep after battling dementia for four years. He was 85 years old. While at Memorial, Herr Brown taught German, English and History. He came to Memorial in the 1960's and retired after the 1986 school year. In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or a charity of your choice. Online condolences can be made at www.BluebonnetHills.com.

You never know the impact a teacher can have on a student. In the "Memories" section at the listed site, there is a story of one of Herr Brown's Memorial students who developed a passion for foreign languages and has gone on to teach at Cascia Hall, in Tulsa, for the last 28 years!

Herr Brown was a great instructor who I was never lucky enough to have as a regular teacher at Memorial.  I did talk to him about German before I graduated and thanks to him, I felt confident that I could master German as well as French when I took it my sophmore year at the University of Arkansas.  I then spent my junior year abroad in Salzburg, Austria and became quite good at it during my time there.  Herr Brown was a good man and, unlike the French instructor whose name I no longer remember, was a kind human being as well.

Even if you didn't take Herr Browns classes, he still made a point to know you. Everytime I passed his classroom, he would wave or greet me. For a lowly Sophmore, this made me feel special. Rest Easy Herr Brown.

Good day, my fellow Chargers,

After living in Texas for the last 37 years, Marilyn and I are returning to Green Country to help take care of her father and my mother.  We are closing on a house in Broken Arrow the first week of October.  I look forward to reconnecting with everyone.

Take care,

Jim

Hello, my Tulsa Memorial Classmates!

May y'all be well and thriving in so many ways!

EDITED!

On Tuesday, I posted info about a friend running for an office in Oklahoma. The neighborhood connections had me enthusiastically wanting to make more.

I appreciate the wise input.

Take care,

Jill Jackson

In response to the post of Ms. Jackson, it might be better if we kept this website free of politics.  

In checking out the website of Mr. Staires, I found myself appalled:  "Join the fight to uphold the Biblical Principles, Constitutional Guidelines and Limited Government..."  It might be a good idea if Mr. Staires actually reads the document he claims to espouse:

"Article the third... Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

I recognize Mr. Staires right to be a Christian (I, myself, was born again on August 19, 1979 shortly after graduating.), and I do not recognize his belief in the need of a 'Christian State' usurping the rights of those of the Buddhist faith, the Hindu faith, the Jewish faith, among many others whose rights are *equally* recognized under the United States Constitution.

Although I agree with our classmates right to her political and religious beliefs, I also agree a high school reunion site is not the best place to post political endorsements.

Sadly, society has become more sharply divided in the years since we graduated. This only contribites to bad feelings, and a furtherance of that problem.

Please know I in no way advocate censorship of anyones expression. Its just that on a forum with a wide diversisity of beliefs and political opinion, politics is best left off.

Exceptionally well said.

Nope. Nope. Nope

When I put this site online in 2008, I had it as a place where we could find lost classmates, communicate between each other, set up and use for reunion planning and keep it up as a gift to this class. That's how it's been up in til now. My time and my work. As a volunteer. Actually some of my $$.

While I appreciate a good, well-thought out discussion as much as anyone else, this web-site is not the place for any political/ social-injustice/ religious discourse or advertisements of who to or not to vote for. Too much time involving me to be a referee, and that isn't my job.  ( Eddie is the only Ref I know here and he's pretty busy too!)
 

The composition of this class is as diverse and crazy a group of people as the rest of the US.
We have Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, agnostic, atheist, LGBTQA+, Democrat, Republican, Independent, Male, Female, Sys, And that's awesome! 

I want this site to be a conduit for positivity and no one visiting here should come away from the site with bad feelings.  There is plenty of that already out there so it won't be happening here. 
 

I encourage those visiting to be active, keep your emails /passwords current and share what's going on in your life, your families lives, and what you are doing/eating/traveling. ( think: early FB days, lol!)  Keep the controversial topics to yourself or post it on FB or Twitter.  Post  your joys// sorrows or real life issues re:yourselves. No opinion pieces, please.

I am glad to answer anyone who has a question to this, now-to-be enforced policy!
 

Again. Thanks for everyone's spirited discussion here, and not in disagreement with many things said here, it's just not what this venue was made for.  
 

Thanks for understanding 

 

K

Aloha Ya'll!

I hope this messagwe finds everyone living a joyful life.  I am now on the mainland (part time) in the North Dallas area called Flower Mound.  After selling my Hawaii businesses a few years ago, I started helping my middle daughter and son-in-law in their business which has a location in Dallas.  After years of owning power boats, I am learning to sail, with lakes next to me, I can also be on the water here in Texas.  

I hope to connect with classmates in this area.  I am embracing Texas, though Hawaii still feels like home, and I return often having ohana there also.  Looking forward to seeing leaves changing color soon and attending a couple of OSU football games this season - I already have tickets for the OSU-TCU game!  I won't have to watch my games at 6am anymore with the time difference to Hawaii!

Best day,

Dani

Hi Dani,  Welcome back to the mainland.  Hope to see you at the next reunion.  Best Wishes!  Kathy

Seems we have thoroughly addressed the comments section so please let's move forward.

Actually- I really appreciate  keeping up with everyone- thanks for sharing and welcome back!!

Eric Tejeda

Thanks Todd.

I agree with your sentiment. Way too much was said over an otherwise well-intentioned comment. Perhaps next time we can just leave it at “let’s keep the site apolitical” and not shame classmates by piling on. We should strive to treat each other with respect and kindness.

Jill, I’m sorry you found yourself in the middle of all this blow back. You didn’t deserve that. I’m grateful we are classmates.

Eric

45th Reunion 2024

It’s been 45 years. We want to see you at the reunion. It’s as simple as that. If there has been something that has held you back in the past from coming to a reunion, I hope that you can find your way past that and come be amongst friends. We are now in our early 60s and the hard truth is that we are going to start losing each other soon. We’ve been pretty lucky so far. But this might be a great chance to see some of your friends one more time. No one cares how much money you make, where you live, how long you’ve been married or how many times you’ve been divorced or who you love, what kind of car you drive, who you vote for, how much you weigh, or how much hair you may or may not have left. We want to see you! And one thing that I hear over and over is that, although it’s fun to see the people we were closest friends with in high school, often times the people we connect with the most are the people that we never even knew very well 45 years ago. Things change! People change. I know that’s true for me. I’ve become great friends with people that I wasn’t really close to back in 1979. All because of some of the reunions over the years. Please don’t look back and wish that you had made it to this one and regret it later. It’s one weekend in September that we can all tell stories, catch up, laugh, share memories, and if previous reunions are any indication, even rekindle a romance! What happens in Tulsa stays in Tulsa. I am truly hoping to see you all this fall, and if you live anywhere between San Diego and Tulsa I’ll pick you up on my way. -- Jaimie
