Meridian High Wildcats '58: Gay Love Rawlings Elliott

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.

Gay Love Rawlings Elliott - Autobiography

David and I have been married for 49 years and have four children and eight grandchildren. We started out in Meridian when David worked for Meyer and Rosenbaum. He entered the priesthood, and ever since then we have lived throughout the South from Mississippi to Tennessee. He retired in August 2007, and we are enjoying our years and lives together. Our main focus now is visiting grandchildren and having them visit us. We enjoy all of us getting together at the beach at least once a year.
