So good to see you this weekend. Thanks for the little video for Jeannie. She said "Cool!" Hope we keep in touch. Thank you for all you did to make the reunion so delightful.

George, Hitman Coffe House, on La Brea by 3rd. They don't sell anything in there but you can hang out and smoke whatever you want. A friend told me.

Oops! I just looked at the list of people coming and now I'm scared again! But I'll be there. Casual, right?

Hey, David. RE: Hawthorne, just tell me when & I'm in.

Geri-Ann, I just read your posting and #1 is the one I've been thinking about. This may be our last chance to see each other. i have no one to tell off, and nothing to prove. I'm not mad at anyone, I DO still have a great head of hair, and lost 60lbs over the last couple of years since my mother died. I'm very keen to see the people who I've been keeping in touch with since the last reunion. That one really started things spinning for me. I was so afraid of everyone - my 2 Davids (Morse & Reich) made sure I got there. Kind of made me an offer I'd better not refuse. They were right. I'm glad I went & I'm looking forward to this one! See you all then.

I feel the same way as you do, but I let myself be dragged to the 40th, and it was enlightening. I think a lot of us felt this way, and I wouldn't want you to not go and miss the friendships that are available to you as an adult. Hope you change your mind. I'll hide in the corner with you.

Shari & I were very good friends in school.  We chased the English groups together, listened to music and had a lot of fun.  We took pictures and laughed and laughed.  She was a bright light.  I only learned yesterday of her passing and have been thinking of nothing else since.  I was pretty convinced by my experience at Hawthorne that nobody would sincerely want to be my friend, and Shari was one of the fantastic people who showed me otherwise.  Of course, we all flew off our separate ways after graduation, but I was so happy to see her at the time of the 40th reunion, and then lunch afterwards.

I never met her husband or sons but I'm sure they are as bright and funny and smart as she was.  I'm so sorry she didn't get more time.  She really knew how to use it.
