St. Mary's Alumni - Class of '71

It's been awhile since our reunion. We have lost some of our old friends and they will surely be missed. Hopefully it won't be too long before we see each other again. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Live life to the fullest, share great memories and laugh as much as you can. 😃🥰😂

It was great to spend some time together last year. Today we are saying good bye to two class members. David Macias who was able to come to our reunion and Jerry Barr who was not. We remember them warmly as special people, who won't be easily forgotten. Life is fleeting, hopefully we can all make the most of the time that we have left. Our prayers are with them both.

Just because Linda & DeeDee left doesn't mean they shouldn't have been in the group photo...so here they are.

Heading back to Texas, halfway there. I thought I could take some time to thank everyone who helped coordinate our 50+ year reunion party and Tailgate. Thank you Mark Duran, DeeDee Meyers, Jim McShane, Teresa Hutchison and Mike Damiani (even though you couldn't attend, you did contribute.)
It was a great time for me, seeing old friends and reacquainting myself with others.
For those who could not come due to circumstances beyond their control, you were missed.
I hope everyone had as great a time as I did.
Here are pictures from Saturday night.

A great way to end our Class of 71 reunion celebration! Great to see more people today and sorry we missed a few. Hoping it can happen again soon. The first post is the group photo, with more to come soon. Had to post two pictures so we could get everyone's faces in there.

The Class of 71 tailgate was a lot of fun. It was great seeing every one. We missed a few, who could not come, but our thoughts were with you. The football game was a good one. The final score was 31 to 28, but not in our favor. So sad.
Hope we get to see more class mates tomorrow. We also had some 72 graduate, it was nice to see them too. Thanks to everyone for coming.
