and I were thrilled to be a part of the 50th reunion of the great

was such an emotional experience. We were able to get "caught

just ran out. Sad News: We offer our deepest condolences to Class Co-Representative Carolyn Summers Herrera and her family on the death of her husband, Chris, on June 15, following a long illness. Chris had been a member of the Class of 1955 . |
