I recently acquired a 1984 Centralian yearbook. A walk down memory lane for sure. Looking at all of those signatures, thinking “I wonder what everyone’s path from this very moment was”.

I just realized I’ve been doing “new math” for the last 25 years.

I was informed this morning that Bill Disbrow a fellow CHS Class of 89 alumni has passed.
At this time IPD is looking for his next of kin.
Prayers and positive vibes that they can find his family.

Victor Jerome Lund
CHS class of 1977
Per Carla Lund
Vic was in a horrible 5x rollover accident on the 24th. Long story short, he's still at Salem Hospital. He broke 7 ribs, dislocated 1 rib, dislocated and crushed T5 and T6 in his back. He has no feeling below his sternum. Complete paraplegic. Only his upper diaphram works. He cannot cough, laugh or fully open his lungs. He's having massage to try to connect his lower body to his brain. Thankfully his arms, hands, shoulders and head are ok! He is in terrible pain as he must be turned every 2 hours. He has asked for his ukelele to play, which is great! They are in for a very long long haul. Please donate if you can, forward on your social media, stop by for a visit (or to spell Carla for a bit) and once he's home, maybe a meal or mow the lawn? Kevin D Hansen is working on a music fundraiser, so check with him to either play, or listen.
I've started Vic's Venmo for much needed donations. This way they won't be charged service fees on the donated money. Anything helps!
Victor Jerome Lund is his Venmo
Thanks everyone!
