Friday night notes - Well, the mixer was a large success we had 350 people show up (at least 100 more than were registered, including one from the missing person list). 4 kegs were floated so Jay, Jaime and Mike went for 2 more. I think at least one of the last two was also floated.

Picnic notes - Don't have any numbers for the turn out for the picnic, but if lines are any indication, the clown was a big hit.

Dinner/Dance notes - We served 280 dinners and more showed up after dinner, so we probably had over 300 attend the Saturday night event. All I can say is that the food was wonderful and a good time appeared to be had by all. Lynn Eberhardt traveled the longest distance to attend (Manhatten); Laura Little Montelongo has been married the longest time (21 plus years); Joseph Dove has the most kids (6) and David Vann won the most interesting thing I've done with his (I met my wife at our 10 year reunion).

I took some pictures and will try to get them scanned and posted on the web site as soon as possible, but there were lots of people with cameras and I'd appreciate it if they would share the photos they took. I wasn't at the Memorial Service, so I don't have any pictures of that. I don't have very many from the picnic itself either. They can either scan them and email them to me (jgoss@digitalpassage.com) or mail them to me, I'll scan them and return them. My mailing address is 1602 Melissa Drive, Graham, Texas 76450.

There will be a photo service at the reunion events who will be taking group and individual photos. They will put together a photo album (magazine style) of the various pictures they take. The cost is $25.00 ($20 for the book and $5 for shipping) for the album. They will be taking the photos. If you are not attending the reunion, you can still get a copy of the memory book. To order one, go to www.photomemorybooks.com. Down towards the bottom of the web page click on Order a Memory Book from Your Event. It will take you to an order blank OR you can mail a check for $25.00 to The Dunning Company, PO Box 759, Theodore, Alabama 36590. Include your name and mailing address and tell them it's for the San Angelo Central Class of 1981 Reunion held on October 5 & 6, 2001.

Terry Baldwin, a classmate of ours, emailed me to let me know that he would not be able to attend the reunion. He is a Gunnery Sargeant in the US Marine Corps. To send Terry a note of encouragement, his email address is herbalife63@hotmail.com.

Another classmate, Jimmy Nichols, has been told to be prepared to fly on 18 hours notice. Jimmy's email is jimmyandpatricia@yahoo.com. We need to keep these classmates and others protecting America's freedom in our thoughts and prayers.

Gary Paul Abee wrote and said he will not be able to make it. He and his family live in Germany. He asked for the prayers of the servicemen and women who have been activated for this war. Paul has been in the Department of Defense for 14 years and has first hand experience of the movements and actions of our military. Paul's email is gpabee@t-online.de.

You don't have to have actually graduated from Central to be included with the Class of 1981. If you know of someone who went to school with our class, but moved off before graduation, please let us know their address if you think they'd be interested in attending the reunion. I'm a perfect example of this. I ended up graduating from Lake View, but I went to school with the Central people for 10 1/2 years. We want to include anyone who would like to be included.

We plan on keeping the website up and updated. That means if you locate one of the classmates on the Missing List we still want to know about it. The list has been updated with information received as of October 2, 2001 and there are still 153 names on the list. Considering the size of the list that we started with (so large it had to be broken down into 3 lists to fit on the web site), I think we've done a very good job of locating our missing classmates.

If you have a gold membership at Classmates, you might try to email some of those with (Classmates) by their name. I haven't had much success getting them to respond.

I've added links on the appropariate pages of this web site back to the original pictures to make it easier to access them. I plan on adding more pictures pages to this site, so please send me your pictures.
