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.

Tuesday Night Event at the Reunion

Denny Powers, Jimmy Lewis, Mike Gay, Albert Morton, Tony Holt, Larry Bond were at our house practicing for the "big" event on Tuesday, October 14th. They are sounding very good not to have played together in so long a time.

George Cummings will be joining them at the next practice at our house on Monday October 6th.

You are all going to be so surprised at how good they sound. They will be setting up and practicing Oct l4th during the daytime at Silver Star.

Please, please, anyone who can video this let Beth, Myra, or me know soon. We really need this to be done, and I know there is someone among all of us that can do this.

These guys, especially Denny who comes from Gulfport to practice and others from out of town also, have put alot of work into this and their time and money to come to Meridian for practice. Please express your appreciation to them, if you can.

Looking forward to seeing you all.

The delete was me. Typo infected. A repeat of the comment:

Why can't someone be hired locally to do this? I think filming their concert is a great idea. The cost of having this done professionally could be recovered by selling us the resultant DVD.

Good idea! A qualified, creative media specialist with all the right equipment will serve us well and relieve a classmate of that responsibility. Attending the filming would interfere with the classmate's reunion participation too. A professional would get the kind of footage that will make the document well worth the cost.
