I just got off the phone with Bill Siegfried. I had not heard of Mr Lunsfords passing and it does sadden me to hear that he is gone. However, having said that, he had a great influence on me as a teacher, with his strict but compassionate "goading" to make us better people.
I told Bill that I can get in touch with David Mellender and Ann Gadwah (they are now married). I also can contact a bunch of the band parents. My Mom of course, and she has remained friends with Rita Robinette, Sarah French and Jane Kilby throughout the years.
I currently live in Roanoke VA and can be contacted at kglassman@storehouse.com - - - this is great what you all are doing. I have sporadically gone to the actual HS reunions but the people I was closest with were in band and the graduation years spanned across many years and I did not get to see the people I really wanted to talk to.
Please keep me posted with any updates.
Take Care,
Kaye

Got a message from Bill this past weekend... and emailed him yesterday.. I was so excited to hear about this. Like everyone, I am saddened by Mr. Lunsford passing, and long to see the people I used to be so close with. I have pictures from band camp that i will try to dig out and see if i can get them sent for the reunion. I hope to be there. I havent attended any reunions, as they usually fall around the time that my daughter starts school. I have located Karen Freeman and Mark Hunter (living in South Africa), and David Baturin and will get this informaiton out to them as soon as possible. I am excited about the reunion and look forward to seeing everyone. If any of you remember Marc Denny, i know he didnt graduate with us, but attended before Lake Braddock was built, he's in Japan as a journalist. Will forward to him as well. take care all and look forward to seeing you.

Hi Robin,
Of course I remember Marc Denny. My husband dated his sister Paula in HS. Small world, huh? Me and my mother are both planning on coming so hope to see you then.

Kaye Glad you guys remembered Mark went to Robinson. I knew him well but didn't know he attended Robinson for a year. There may be several other people we don't have listed only because their names didn't appear on the programs we happen to have. Let's get in contact with him. |

This sounds great. I got a link to the website from Gary Conley (79) and Connie (Kahl) and I both plan to attend. Never bothered with the reunions, all my friends were in the band anyway (wife too for that matter). Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Next year i plan on digging out my old pictures... cant believe how we looked !!! sounds like everyone had a good time... Myra, you're in SC? Where, it's only 30 minutes from charlotte. I found Karen Freeman brother there too. Kaye... gosh it's been a long time... Marc Denny, yeah, he's in Japan... I hear from him every now and then.. he sent some pictures of him and his Japanese girl friend. never married... oh well... i miss you guys... email me if any one gets the chance.
