Pat See how she picks on me? Can you imagine what poor Jerome goes through? Gary 8-21-10 The Midway MADness All-Class Reunion, October 1 & 2 will be here in less than 2 months. If you haven't sent your reservations in by now, you need to do so. It's going to be a terrific celebration and you don't want to miss it. The 1949 classmates that I know are attending are: JoAnn Clemmons Blye Dorothy Worrell Bragg Steve ('51) and Shirley Hunt Brodie Bob (:47) and Marily Boehm Burns Bob and Joane Chrisman ('50) Box and Genelle Barnhouse Cox Andy and Anne Culliane Pete and Marian Densmore Gary and Barbara Dayton Richard and Gail Eckstrom Sarah E.

Jim ('50) and Vangie Brownwood Regan That's a count of 30 classmates, (not counting spouses) and I'm hoping that there will be a lot more '49 classmates attending to represent our 1949 class. The committee has a count of over 200 people at the present and they plan on many more. You really don't want to miss this reunion, it may be the last one we have. Shirley and Steve Brodie attended the graduation of their grandson, Chris, from USC, last week. Shirley wrote that it was a perfect day, sitting beneath the huge shade trees in the section of USC called Alumni Park. We listened to the inspiring speeches and being filled with such pride at our grandson's graduation from USC. It was a memorable day, topped off by an amazing lunch with Captain Sullenberger. He was the pilot that landed the airplane in the Hudson River. We were in a private room with only 8 of us. Steve asked him so many questions and he was very gracious and answered all of them. He was just about as interesting as you can imagine, given his new status as American Hero. Yanni, Sheryl's husband, Sheryl, Capt. Sully, Shirley & Steve.

Some even growing as high as an Elephants' eye. Some relationships start at an early age while others begin later in life. It matters not when they start, what matters most is if they last. Pals are made from different molds Each life different, but joined by common glue, likes, dislikes do not always mesh, but one thing for certain, a special bond does exist. True friendships never grown old, as friends, we do. Blessed are we, just a few MAD gals who cherish our moments together, as 49'er pals. Genelle Barnhouse Cox sent me the the poem and the pictures and info on the Gals get together last week. Every April several Gal Pals from the 1949 class get together to renew old times. This year they met at Vangie Brownwood Regan's home and spent a few days. The first evening, upon the arrival of everyone, Jim Regan fixed a marvelous Mexican dinner and the next morning fixed all the gals a delicious breakfast. They then traveled to Vangie's condo at Country Estates in Ramona, where they spent a couple of days. While at the condo they all had a massage at the Country Estates which Jim had given each gal a ticket for the spa, before they left San Diego..... (What a guy!) Upon returning to San Diego they toured the Midway Ship, where the 1950 MAD class will hold their 60th reunion and all class reunion. They then had lunch at the Fish Market restaurant in San Diego. Below is picture of the gals taken at Vangie's home and a picture of them at the Midway. The gals who attended this gala affair. PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR OUR MAD ALL-CLASS REUNION ABOARD THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS MIDWAY MUSEUM OCTOBER 1 -2, 2010 The MAD Class of 1950's 60th Reunion. Check out Jim Regan's "Book Review" on MAD Website. A complete outline of the events for their "Big One". If you've been reading any of the MAD websites recently you've been informed that the 1950's class is preparing for their 60th reunion, to be held on the Midway Ship docked in San Diego, October 1-2, 2010. Even tho we had our 60th reunion just last year in Laughlin, I hope to see a great number of the 1949 classmates at this reunion. Jerome and I are planning on going. Since Jerome doesn't drive anymore and I don't have a license to drive freeways, we will be driving to San Diego with our very good friends, Steve and Shirley Brodie. Several of our classmates have already told me that they are planning on attending. I hope we can have a big showing of the 1949 class. If you need any information other than the date of October 1-2, please let me know. You don't want to miss this chance to see MAD classmates from other years. Granted it's been over 60 years, but who knows you might even recognized a few faces.............. Meanwhile, back in La Verne
