In Celebration of MHS Class of 1958

A Tribute and Celebration

We were the class of 1958, members of the Greatest Generation as well as children of the Greatest Generation. Born in 1940, we are also called members of the Traditional Generation.

Our childhood, post World War II, "was the best of times . . . it was the age of wisdom . . . it was the epoch of belief . . .it was the season of Light . . . it was the spring of hope . . . we had everything before us . . .we were all going direct to Heaven . . . ." (A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens.) At least, that's the way I felt about it. We were truly blessed.

Trivia Question from Larry Tyner

Which Senior English teacher finally fulfilled her dreams by a trip to England in the summer of '58? Alas, the home of Chaucer and the "Canterbury Tales" she so passionately taught to some of us who did not necessarily share her passion. During our Senior year she talked about her coming trip a lot. One senior who thought he might fail and not graduate with rest of us, strongly suggested she would not make the trip if he failed. Bonus question: who was that senior?

Hint: she always looked like she had eaten green persimmons. One of you know who this is?
