Moments to Remember

“Strangely enough, this is the past that somebody
in the future is longing to go back to."

Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
Today's theme comes to us as a request earlier this week from Marcus C. Higgins ('65) of AZ:

"...Sometimes someone will suggest a song for your columns. Perhaps our 'theme song' should be 'We'll Have These Moments to Remember.' Check out the lyrics sometime. I think it is by The Four Lads, about 1959 maybe."

Thanks, Marcus - great idea! Actually, that (1955) song has been on our website itself since 09/27/03, predating even the Newsletters themselves! It was used to accompany the poem Brownie Shaffer Haracivet ('62) of VA wrote for her 40-Year Reunion in 2002, though the music itself wasn't added for nearly a year:

PRAYER REQUESTS:

From Joe Madagan ('57) of FL - 03/02/09 - " Bob Hedrick ('58) of VA":

Hi, Carol:

Please keep Bob Hedrick on the TYPHOON Nation prayer list. He is heading to Houston on Thursday (03/05/09). He was confident he had beaten the Big C with the help of his physicians, and the pancreas is free of cancer now, but he is in for another bout with the stomach now. Please keep him on the Prayer List. He is in good spirits, and he is a fighter.

TYPHOON Regards,
Joe Madagan ('57) of FL

YOWZERS! That we will, Adonis - thanks for letting us know!

From Judy Phillips Allen ('66) of VA - 03/02/09, 8:07 PM - "Monday update on Monty (Phillips - '62 - of VA)":

Well,

More proof of God answering prayers....Monty had a pretty good day. First he did not want ANY visitors. After his afternoon bathing and beard grooming, he told his nurse to call me and tell me that I could come see him. How vain he is! The breathing tube is permanently out, there is only ONE bag hanging from the pole by his bed now, and he has the pain pump to use as needed. His color has pretty much returned and his eyes are much more clear and wide open. We had a wonderful hour to visit. We talked about things he wants me to do. I had to take notes. I gave him numerous messages from friends and family and the well wishes, etc. We told stories of the past and laughed. By the way, Fuzzy, he said that YOU were the culprit at the Paramount Theatre that night....not him. Don't worry. I believe you.

Again, thank you all for the prayers. I figured, that about the time you prayer warriors received the prayer request and prayed for him, that is when improvement began. It continues. The difference from Saturday to Sunday and from Sunday to this evening is a miracle. Thank you for your prayers and THANK GOD for answering them.

God bless you and good night.

Love,

SUPER-DE-DUPER! Thank you, dear Judy!

From Joe Madagan ('57) of FL - 03/02/09 - "Bison Trail":

Hi, Carol:

Thanks for the reply to my message in your Newsletter. Since Captain Dave (Spriggs - '64 - of VA) is busy assisting in organizing their Class Reunion please do not send my request to him regarding identification of the Railroad that used the "Nickname" of "The Bison Trail" on their freight cars.

It looks like it might be a hopeless cause unless one of your faithful subscribers is a railroad buff and remembers this bit of trivia.

A Google search is overwhelming, and leads only to RV and Campsites, etc.

Railroad Nicknames websites do not display this old nickname, most likely tossed in the dust bin of railroad history.

TYPHOON Regards,
Joe Madagan ('57) of FL

OH, CRUM! Perhaps we'll learn more about this later, Major Madagan! Thanks!

From Dave Spriggs ('64) of VA - 03/02/09 - "RE: Bison Trail":

Shortly after the newsletter appeared, I made a quick Google search, but didn’t turn up anything.

I have not given up, just got … (ahem) … sidetracked for a while.

Thank you, David!

SNOW:

From Bill Black ('66) of GA - 03/01/09, 12:15 PM - "First Snowfall in LaGrange Since.. since.. since..":


#27	#29	#31
Sunday, March 1, 2009 - LaGrange, GA

Well, friends and neighbors, here it is: photographic proof that LaFreakin'Grange, Georgia does, indeed have winter weather.

The first pic was taken about ten minutes after Susan yelled at me to "come look at what's on the Weather Channel! HURRY!!" I pulled my butt off the couch, where I had been watching Contractor Amy Matthews wrestle a sink into the opening on a granite topped cabinet, without wrinkling the tight blue tee shirt that hugged her pert, firm bre- Okay, I was watching the DIY Channel, like I do every Sunday morning. Sure enough, on the screen, everything west of Georgia was covered in pink and green, indicating snowfall... But glancing out the kitchen window, I saw only clouds. Back to the couch. Oh, Amy... Amy.. Sweet baby...let me help you with that...

Minutes later, Susan yelled again that the Weather Channel was "calling for snowfalls in excess of an inch in LaGrange" and kept her face glued to the monitor. I glanced out the window, and saw rain falling. Oh Amy, Amy... Can I really call you if I have questions about installing a sink, or any project around the home?

Minutes later, it had turned to sleet, then - as Amy Matthews started to caulk around the edge of the granite counter top with waterproof silicone - it all turned into the snow you see in image #27. Susan never looked up at her computer screen, but kept telling me "The Weather Channel says it's thirty five out there.. Snowfalls in excess of one to two inches in the following counties.." which she dutifully read off to me.

Ten minutes later, the back yard was covered, as you see in image #29.

"Now it's thirty two degrees. How'd it drop three degrees so fast?"

Oh, and by the way, I built that terrace several years ago, without the benefit of "Rock Solid" advice on the DIY Channel. Yes, those are cracks in the stucco. Okay, okay, okay, so I built the whole damned thing over about two weeks of going to Home Depot to pick up as many concrete blocks and bags of cement that I could fit into the Quinnmobile at a time, and was digging four or five more feet of footings after each trip. Maybe if I'd really known how big the thing was going to be before I started, I would've poured all the footings at one time, then gone back for the block, then the masonry mix for the stucco, and then made the caps... And maybe there wouldn't be any cracks anywhere. All that was covered in the FIRST "Rock Solid" episode, called: "Start with a plan..."

Just because two guys have their own TV show doesn't make them geniuses, does it? Well, does it?

Anyway, the third shot is of the area just to the left of the terrace, showing the Leyland Cypress I planted many, many years ago, before there was even a DIY Channel, covered in wet, heavy snow. To the left is a Bluebird house I made ( occupied last summer, you're welcome, Mother Nature ) behind the cypress is the long serpentine border I created by burying every eight or ten inch diameter limb and trunk I could find in the ground to edge my bed of liriope, daffodils, day lilies, and wild weeds and to the right is my "Homage to Martha Stewart Tuteur", which was probably the very FIRST decorative garden element I built many, many, many years ago. There has ALWAYS been a Martha Stewart.

So, those of you in Richmond and North Carolina: here's the winter storm that you have a 50/50 chance of getting tonight and tomorrow. I did all I could to make it all fall on Ridgecrest Road to spare you any excessive accumulation up yonder.

But be on the safe side: head to Ukrops and get bread, eggs, and "Milk" on DVD now, before all the old people start crowding the highways with their Volvos and aisles with their walkers...

Stay safe, be warm, and think well of me. I have to go tell Susan to look outside and see real snow before it melts this afternoon.

Hell, maybe I'll just e-mail her.

Just think, a little over ten years ago, I'd be looking at the snow falling in Richmond, and thinking "Dammit! I have to go to the station and answer the freakin' snow phone for three hours after Cavalier Call-in."

At least there was always an endless supply of pizza... Right?

Thanks for these rare images, Bill!

From Bill Black ('66) of GA - 03/01/09, 1:56 PM - "One Casualty from the Snow...":

Well, LaGrange's snowfall was pretty, until..... Walking around the house, there were a lot of limbs and branches on several shrubs bent over in the heavy snow, and I did what I could with a broom to save them from breaking, or being so strained that they never stood upright again. But this Leyland Cypress in the backyard caught me by surprise...
		Sunday, March 1, 2009 - LaGrange, GA

Maybe it was because of two days of rain that preceded the snowfall that softened up the ground around the roots, maybe the drought over the last two or three years kept deeper roots from developing, I don't know. But I think -since he didn't snap off at the base, like I'd feared- I think I can dig out a hole "uphill" since those roots are already broken, and drop him back into the ground. With the proper "slow-release" to help encourage new growth, of course. Figuring out how to "stake him" is a problem, though. I'm not sure whether to put a long four-by-four in the hole next to him, and secure the trunk for a year or so until new roots develop, or stretch a line further uphill for better support... I'll have to see what kind of root ball he still has... The four-by-four would be less obvious, hidden in the branches, but I don't know.

It's something I had success with on a large wax myrtle beside the house several years ago. In that case, the whole shrub, about fifteen feet high, just fell over, and I realized that the jackass goober who put in the landscaping when they built the house just dropped the shrub into a hole, without taking off any of the burlap and wire bag, so whatever roots it eventually developed had to grow over the top of the bag to spread out at all. And of course, only a few were holding him up...

But you know how I hate to cut down a tree, even though the cypress is about fifteen feet tall, with a much thicker, heavier trunk. We'll see what I can do tomorrow...

I'll document it all, though, and maybe get a gardening magazine article out of it.

**Sigh**

Oh, how very disheartening - but thanks for your report, Bill!

From Joyce Lawrence Cahoon ('65) of VA - 03/01/09, 6:22 PM - "THANK YOU!!!":

Carol,

I want to thank you for including my prayer request for

Sunni and I will let you know something just as soon as I do!!

Guess what? It's snowing in Virginia!!! It's only been snowing about 1 hour and everything is already getting white, sticking to the roads and the grandchildren are doing the "close the schools" prayer. Remember those days? LOL

I live just outside of Richmond in Highland Springs. Sending you just a couple of pictures of our patio taken just minutes ago. It's really coming down!! It's still just rain in Newport News but I hope they get snow too. I have nieces and nephews there and I'm sure their children want the schools closed too.

I guess snow is old stuff for you now that you live in Illinois, but it's still great to us poor old Virginians! I'm just as bad as the kids, LET IT SNOW!!!

Joyce Cahoon

			OOOOH - snow never gets to be old for me, Joyce! As long as everything is cancelled and no one is in jeopardy and everyone's warm and toasty, I think it's one of life's most beautiful blessings!
Sunday, March 1, 2009 - Highland Springs, VA

We here are snow free, but it's reallll-ly cold! BRRRR!

Thanks for the happy images, Lady!

From Joyce Lawrence Cahoon ('65) of VA - 03/02/09, 10:26 AM - "Winter Wonderland!":

Beautiful!!!!! These pictures were taken this morning, 3/2/09, of my front and back yard. Everyone is home for the day because almost everything is closed. (My daughter) April's power went out last night about 9 o'clock and was off until this morning around 11o'clock, ours blinked but hung in there. If you got snow, send me pictures! I'd love to see them. The grandchildren got their wish and I doubt if they have school tomorrow either. We still have flurries with the temperature in the 20's today and they say it will go down to 9 tonight! Whoaaaaa!

I'm not going out of this house!! It's hot chocolate, the recliner and watching out the window, best way to enjoy snow when you aren't a kid anymore. I'm only a kid at heart!! Too fat and lazy, that's me!!!

Joyce Cahoon

OOOOH-WHOOO! These are GORGEOUS! Thanks again, Joyce!

From My Niece, Shari, of VA - 03/01/09 - "Grace":

Thanks, Phillip! I think I know what you had in mind..... I cropped the 1968 Vietnam image for the Alumni Page and added the one from February there in its full scope to show your lovely Utah snow:

Wait a minute! You weren't even LISTED on Famous Soldiers!!! What kind of blithering idiot runs this place, anyway?!? Oh, yeah...

"Nevermind....."

I am so sorry! It's bad enough I'm always running behind on the lovely images you send me, but this is unconscionable. Okay, you're added now - well, except for your place of birth!

Allegheny Ludlum Steel's 1936 Stainless Steel Ford Tudor Sedan

1936 Stainless Steel Ford

This is the 1936 Ford Tudor Sedan built for and owned by Allegheny Ludlum Steel. This is 1 of only 4 in existence and is the only one currently in running and in road worthy condition.

The car is in exceptional condition, with the interior and even the frame looking great. All 4 cars each had over 200,000 miles on
them before they removed them from service.

These cars were built for Allegheny as promotional and marketing projects. The top salesmen each year were given the honor of being able to drive them for one year. The v-8 engine (max 85 hp) ran like a sewing machine and was surprisingly smooth and quiet.

I thought this was a much better looking automobile than the Ford Thunderbird that visited us last year. FYI, the car was insured (we were told) for the trip to Louisville via covered trailer for 1.5 million dollars.

We were also told that the dies were ruined by stamping the stainless car parts, making these the last of these cars ever produced. More information of the history on these automobiles can be found at Allegheny Ludlum's website:

http://www.alleghenyludlum.com/pages/companyinfo/stainlesscars.asp

OHHHH, Glenn - that's my Dream Car! Thanks so much for sharing this with us!

From Jean Poole Burton ('64) of RI - 03/02/09 - "Oh, no, not the trains again!":

FYI I rode the train from RI to Newport News on the 18th of February and back on the 25th. I do not know how fast it was going, how many times it stopped (a lot), or whether there were any other trains going the other way...

I do know this: I had two whole seats to myself, a lot of floor space, room to stretch my legs out, could walk two cars back and get food and drink, did not have to take off my shoes or jacket, did not have to put anything in a plastic bag, had my luggage in sight at all times, no standing in line for security...it was lovely!!!

Sounds delightful to me! Thanks, Lady!

From Linda May Bond Crayton ('66) of VA to Glenn Dye ('60) of TX - 03/02/09 - "Pastor Bond":

Dear Glenn,

In response to your enquiry about my being related to another Bond in the area, let me say this.......

Last year while sitting in Lab Corp, I noticed everyone was moving ahead of me. Don't know about you, but "waiting" is not my strong suit. After all, I had no life to get back to and what where they testing for anyway? Taking too many drugs, not enough, or the wrong ones? I shouldn't complain. If my liver holds out, I'll live longer so I can continue to do nothing except come here and hang out!

Back on subject. Thinking I had not signed in ( yea, Right) I checked the clip boarded sheet only to see my name on the bottom!
What?, I said out loud and then realized it said Linda Bond, not Linda Crayton. (Between writing mother's bills and doing genealogy I forget my now-name) Turning into the room I asked for Linda Bond.

There sat a beautiful, skinny black lady about ten years younger than I am. I said, "That's my name! It's so good to meet you."

She told me she married a Bond and indeed they have always been from Virginia. He ran a Sports shop on 17.

"I'd loved to meet him-hope he's not prejudiced."

She laughed and gave me hug because she knew I meant it.

I met him, finally. His reply to my questions was, "Yea, I heard we had some white people in our history." He was not happy.

I said, "Sweetie, you need to relax. Just because we have the same name does not make us related, but it does mean that we may have shared a time in history together. There was no television back then, and men found ways to "entertain" themselves that was beyond anyone's control but their own. It's a man's world.....I think even you know that. I just live here."

He gave me his e-mail and number and a hug.

I understand that a doctor in my family, of which there are many, had 14 children not of his wife.

Hope this clears things up for you, darlin'.

Linda May ' 66

WILD GIGGLES!!! Thanks, Linda May!

Moments to Remember

Words by Al Stillman
(26 June 1906 - 17 Feb 1979)

Music by Robert Allen, 1955
(05 Feb 1928 - 01 Oct 2000)

(The Four Lads), 1955

January to December, we'll have moments to remember

The New Year's Eve we did the town
The day we tore the goal post down
We'll have these moments to remember

The quiet walks, the noisy fun
The ballroom prize we almost won
We will have these moments to remember

Though summer turns to winter
And the present disappears
The laughter we were glad to share
Will echo through the years

When other nights and other days
May find us gone our separate ways
We will have these moments to remember

SPOKEN:

The drive in movie where we'd go
And somehow never watched the show
