Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
Looky-looky at today's date! How cool is that?!? (It's true; I'm easily amused...)
Once again, lest you forget, Sunday is Mother's Day for all the wives and mothers and significant others in your lives.
Happy Birthday today to Tom Jones (Warwick HS - '60) of VA!

Dear Carol,
....I have not been able to send in my Lefty
Driesell story nor any other comments because I was working long
hours. I have been called back three times since I retired to fill in for
assistant principals out on maternity leave
and it has kept me more than busy. Hope to soon catch up. Leaving tomorrow for a
few days R&R in Myrtle Beach!
I hope things are going okay for Eleanor's husband. My thoughts have been
with her.
Take care.
Best wishes,
Aretie Gallins Patterson
COOL - the BEACH!!! Have fun for all of us!
I just had a call from Eleanor (Buckley Nowitzky - '59 - of NC). Her husband, The Miracle Man , Miles (Nowitzky - Granby - '50) continues to show steady improvement in his numbers, for which we're all incredibly grateful.
Thanks, Aretie! We'll await your story when you're ready.
From Merle Sammons Ivey ('66) of VA - 05/04/05:
Thanks, Merle
Thank you, Merle. Vera's
address in Valrico is on its way to both you and Suzanne (Stenner Gabriel '65
- of VA). I finally
located what I'd done with it. I just don't normally publish such things
online due to privacy issues.
From Gail Kiger Bonsey (Ferguson HS - '73) of OR - 05/04/05:

This Just Arrived from Thelma Spade Roberts ('57) of VA - 05/05/05:
Dear Classmates,
It is with great sadness that I
write this message to you all. I’ve just received word that
“Mr. Mac”
as we all thought of him, passed away last night of congestive heart failure.
His daughter, Betsy ('62)
was with him. I understand there are to be memorial services
- one at Southern Shores, NC and also
some type of service at McIntosh School near graduation.
He was such a wonderful man.
The fact that we all continue to hold him in high esteem after almost
50 years, indicates the impact and impression he made on all our lives.
He lived his life by example
and gave us a role model to emulate. He instilled in all of
us a pride of NNHS and made us proud to be
called “Typhoons”. He may be gone, but his spirit will truly
live on in all of us.
I have Betsy McIntosh Taylor’s
address and phone number, should you wish to send cards
of condolence. (Available on request from
NNHS65@yahoo.com)
Thelma
Well, Thelma,
you warned us all that it was fairly imminent, but it still is sad to learn.
I'll announce this further tomorrow
in a special edition Newsletter, replacing the regular edition.
Thank you so much for
letting us know. Mr. McIntosh was such a very fine man. I
never heard a negative remark uttered
against him.
