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!

   Personally, I'm making some of my own fabulous crock-pot chili for tonight.  Mmmm - it smells delicious!  It is similar to this:

From Aretie Gallins Patterson ('59) of Northern VA - 05/04/05:
 

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:

   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:

5/4/05 - OH, MY GOLLY,  Terry Seay!  That's her!  It was Diane Winkler )'67)!  And how I remembered Steve's (Kiger - '66 - of VA) wallet-sized picture from prom - gee - I must have been just a starry-eyed fifth grader at Magruder and I'll never forget her in that beautiful white strapless gown with her hair worn up.  Like I said, it was a real flash-back when out came my son Collin's date with same color/type gown and hair same color and worn up!

But gee, if he finds out the whole city reads this, well,  I going to get heck when Steve visits me in a few weeks - but he doesn't know how to open up e mail so it'll just be our little secret, ok?

  Thanks, Gail - and Terry!

From Frances Goodson Wang ('65) of MD - 05/05/05:

This Just Arrived from Thelma Spade Roberts ('57) of VA - 05/05/05:

   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.
