Meet at the front steps at 1:00 and walk with us down memory lane....Also if any of you would like to join us for the evening event check our web page (www.howdyyall.com/WHS70) for details. We would love for any and all of you to join us. You can also contact me at dawnw52@hotmail.com TAKE EM TIGERS.....(please excuse any typo's)

PUBLIC GUESTBOOK ENTRY ... ,Way back when I attened North Waco Elementary and North Waco Junior High with most of you folks but attened Richfield High School, but way back we were all friends....smiles

I have been wondering for a long time how my fellow Tigers are, where? 40 years ago. Wow. Does anybody know where Tommy Plemmons disappeared to? Robert from China Spring? Lots of memories. Please add me to the alumni list and let me know when a reunion is coming. I still visit my sister in Axtell a couple time a year.

Wish I could have been there since I went to school with so many Tigers in the days of old...How can it have been 40 years ok...smiles

HEY GANG: THE 40TH CLASS REUNION WAS AWESOME..AND KOODOS TO THE COMMITTEE FOR A FANTASTIC JOB! CLASS OF 69' ARE TRUELY FAMILY! GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU AND CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE!

What a difference 40 years make - time does make the heart grow fonder. Expecting to keep in touch with (old) new friends now. Excited about being on the committee for the 45th reunion. Great idea about getting together every year or even having a news letter to keep everyone informed. Hope all who were there had a great time and plan on coming back!

Dear Friends, wish I could have been with all of you last weekend. I knew many of you....back to West Junior and some all the way back to Jefferson Elementary. My brother Frank Charles, we called him Charlie passed away on November 6, 1996 according to my Mother, Florence Garcia. He was living in Pontiac, Michigan. He was divorced from Mary and had three beautiful children--Adam is a U.S. Marine. stationed in Afghanistan. Amanda(the oldest), is married with two kids living outside Pontiac, Michigan. Aaron is age 20 and is a college student in Michigan. Charlie died of Cirrhosis.

The reunion was wonderful....thank you to the committee for all your hard work! It was wonderful seeing old friends and renewing acquaintances. Seeing the old school sure brought back memories, too. Am now looking forward to our 45th!

Debra and I truly enjoyed the great 40-year reunion. The planning commmittee truly did an outstanding job. We members of the class of '69 are truly family. Let us stay in touch as we look forward to a wonderful time together in 2014. May God bless each and every one of you, my brothers and sisters. You are daily in my thoughts and prayers. Debra joins me in sending our love. If you are ever in the Ennis area, please come and visit us.

Thanks for allowing Janet & I to join you on Friday night. We had an absolutely wonderful time - nothing like visiting with dear friends. We had hoped to do the same Sat night and to also see those of you who did not attend Fri or left before we got there; but our handgun class lasted longer than expected. To those of you who expressed an interest in attending RHS'69 reunion - it kicks off at 7pm, Fri, 7/10, in the back room at Ninfa's - please join us! Please visit our website, www.RichfieldHighSchool1969.com, for other details. Until we meet again, Godspeed!

The reunion was the bomb!!!!!Most fun ever!!! Hope to see all again next time!!! ¢¾Joe and Mary Salazar

Great job guys! Count me in for help ... So great to see every one of you! Janice Peck Braswell

Well It 's now Sunday morning the weekend is almost over. I want to thank the reunion committee for a grest reunion event & for allowing me a non graduate of the class of 69 to come & renew old friendships & see people I haven't seen in 40 years. Five years is a long time to wait for another great party... Maybe an impromptu getogether once a year or every other year might be worth thinking about. I'm so glad a very tired Janet Holcomb Stpehens made it. Great seeing you all.

Hey,Mayo! Remember "Jumpin Jack Flash" on Mockingbird Lane. Look forward to seeing you and all the old gang.

Lyn I didn't mean you worked at Height's. I worked at Height's. My brain doesn't work right lately. Siegmund

Hello Class of '69'. Mine was '68' I remember some of you, Hollis, Lyn. Hope you have a great time, we sure did. Lyn, do you remember when you worked at Heights Pharmacy. My best to all. Siegmund

Hey Tigers--I've been out of touch and just heard about our 40th reunion yesterday. Thank you Lyn for contacting me and also to Pam and Linda (plus all their helpers) for pulling this together. I can't wait to see everyone! Go Tigers!!

When this reunion suppose to kick off.Hope to see ya there. Hollis, the reunion kicks off at Poppa Rollo's at 7:00 pm Friday night. The dinner/dance is Saturday night at the Bellmead Civic Center.

I saw my name on the "black" list - change me to gold!! I just mailed my check to Pam today. Wouldn't miss the reunion for anything and thanks to the committee for putting things together.

Hi everyone, I don't know if ya'll remember me or not. I was suppose to graduate in in '68 but I already knew everything so I quit and graduated in'69, right in front of my sister Judy Smith Adams.I hope I can make it. See you there.

Take 'em Tigers! I work seven on and seven off and the reunion is my working weekend BUT this sweet little peach that works opposite me is willing to trade. I did not exactly like the look on her face when I told her it was for our 40 year reunion. Incredulous doesn't describe it. I bet she thinks I am sneaking off with the Barbie twins Ha Ha. See Ya There!

Peace, love and understanding; remembering the hope many of us held during our youth in the 60's for something better, seems there may yet be a chance to come together... Music may prove our saving grace. More than worth a look: http://www.playingforchange.com/episodes/3/One_Love peace, Charlie

Hey everyone!! Looking forward to seeing all of you. Sorry I have not been attentive to face book like I would like to be. I will see you all soon. Diane (Battle)Stokes

You can thank Patsy Barron for talking me into going to our Reunion. I'll be there with (YOU ALL KNOW) my high school sweetheart, Gilbert.

Hello Everyone. I was actually thinking of not coming this time but after seeing everyone here and the ones that are no longer with us, how could I not be there? Looking forward to it. Everyone: I am on Facebook, Linkedin and can be reached at John@sigplanning.com. Hope to hear from all.

Thanks Linda for the phone call informing us of the reunion. We'll be there. Looking forward to seeing everyone.Sue and Steve

i just can't get over the idea that it has been 40 years i see some of the gang at work and it is great just to see who I remember and why, But it is all good memories there I will never forget what the school and the people I met did for me. I am really looking forward to seeing all those who moved away. and the rest of us who stayed.

Looking forward to see y'all Waco Tigers. Count Us In for the Weekend of Fun & Memories.

Hi Pam and Karen- Saw the reunion notice in the Trib & just had to check out the website. RHS69 is having our 40th in July. It has been lots of fun planning it; and I've enjoyed looking at the WHS info. If you prepare a booklet of info, as for the past reunion, I'd love to buy one, again. Having gone to Brook Ave & CABC, the roster for WHS looks like "home", also. Take care & tell eveyone hi for me. Thanks, Donna

Hello Waco 69' Tigers, 40 years, let that sink in. I'm so proud of the Committe doing this for all of us. I'll keep up with all of you through this reunion page. Better than no knowledge of everyone because I will not be able to come to the 40th. I've not missed any of them. I'll be in Peru on a mission trip that week coming home that weekend. Have a great time for me. Go GO Go because you'll have a good time remembering where we came from. Have a great time with each other. So what if there is more of us (weight) and less of us (hair)we're still TIGERS and always will be. To ALL THE MEMORIES OF HIGH SCHOOL AND ALL THE WONDERFUL MEMORIES OF REUNIONS. MAKE MORE FOR ME.

I saw the newspaper ad today. Yea Class of 1969. 40 years ???!!!??? I checked the date of the reunion and I'm not going to be able to come. I'll be in Peru on a Mission Trip. I went last year and am so blessed to go again this year. I dont know if I'll be able to go anymore because Mom is not doing very well. But I'm making the most of this year. I'm now working at First United Methodist Church here in Waco. After Peru, this was my calling. I'm just where I belong but I have long hours learning this job. You can teach an old dog new tricks. I'm proof of that. Let me hear from you. I checking out the site now. I'm so sorry I want be there. We're coming back that Saturday night or Sunday A.m. Love to you all as you create new memories at the 40TH Just4Him, Janet Stephens

Wow! I heard there was a group of dedicated Tigers out there from the Class of `69! This chat has gotten me excited about seeing everyone. I have sooo many wonderful memories, not only from high school but from the other reunions as well. Thanks to Diane DeRosa Light for calling me and to those on the committee. I look forward to seeing everyone again! XXOO

This website came to me from a friend and it has been a blast looking at it. I started my high school years at WHS, where my sister graduated, but then my parents moved and I attended Richfield for my junior and senior years. I have many friends at both schools. However, I would love to attend the WHS reunion this summer if possible. If not, my best to all of you. I know many of you very well and you are a terrific group. Would love to hear from you. (Jackf2@flash.net). Is it true that Jicky H. finally gave up his hopes of becoming a male stripper? -- jack flanders arlington

Looking forward to WHS 40th high school reunion.

Boy, just looked at the Guestbook entries. Diane A, yes, I remember you, you can't get out that easy! Carol Byrd - wonderful to "hear" from you too! Janice Peck! I have asked about you for years....my brothers, Mike and Bob keep asking about Jack! Marsha G - thanks for your awesome comments. I hope everyone will listen to you. We just want to see everyone again. High School is a special time in the life of a teen-ager. Something we never forget and hopefully that is a good thing.

Thanks to all of you who have left a message, send more! We will have some writteninfo out soon, with a list of who we cannot find yet and hopefully someone will know about some of them!

See you soon - Lyn

Wow, has it REALLY been 40 years? I eloped my junior year in college and moved with my ex (Army guy) to IN and WI while he served as an advisor to Army Reserve units. When we divorced I hightailed it back to TX (Houston) and remarried 6 years later. We're still here in the Houston area, but my mother and lots of cousins are still in Waco so I'm in Waco several times a year. I doubt many people remember me, but I'd love to attend this reunion...will give it a try.

Hope to make it this time. Great job on the website. Thanks to the committee for your hard work.

Hello "superfine" classmates of "69"

Where did the past 40 years go? Times have certainly changed haven't they? I saw my picture & can't believe that was really me as I looked much thinner & my hair was thicker & I had more of it back then. Ha-Despite that I am thankful & blessed as I am a 14 year breast cancer survivor. Hope all of you are doing well! Hi to my best friend in high school
- Debbie Bizzell Hintz.

Hey Class of '69 - Just wanted to drop you a line and tell you that the Class of '68 had such a wonderful 40th reunion. I hope that you are so fortunate to have as great of a time as we had. The only regrets that I have encountered from anyone about the reunion is the fact that they missed it for one reason or another. Some people felt they have gained too much weight or looked bad from being ill or thought nobody would remember them or that they hadn't accomplished what they thought people thought they should - you know what, nobody cared! It was instant acceptance from every single person there. We even reached out to people who we knew in Jr. High and some of them came and know we have some "new" old friendships. So, please don't let anything keep you from coming and seeing your old friends. It is really so special. Corny as it sounds, it really has enriched my life since the reunion. I hope ya'll have a great one. Marsha

P. S. Please decide early and send your money as soon as possible so your wonderful committee will be less stressed.

[Thanks Marsha --- Great to hear from you ---WHS '69 staff]

Howdy Yall. Looking foward to seeing all and can't wait to our next.

I booked my flight and I will be in Waco for the reunion. I am looking forward to seeing everyone.

~ Later

Hey Tigers!

Can't believe it's been 40 years! I can't wait to see all my classmates again. I have attended most of the reunions and I must say I had a blast! I am hoping this year I will see more of my Latino classmates attending. Thanks to the organizers for keeping us together and posting this awesome website - thanks to the webguy too!

[Thanks Patricia. We're working hard so that EVERYONE will be there! --- Bob the Webguy]

This website is GREAT! I hope that I will make it to the reunion this year.

Thanks to all the committee members for the effort put forth to coordinate the upcoming reunion-I can't believe it is 40 years - seems like yesterday! Peg and I look forward to seeing everyone and revisiting the good times at WHS.

Once a Tiger, always a Tiger!

Forty years later, it sounds incredible! Our children and grandchildren are getting older and we are not. We must be in a time warp. So great to read all the postings!

Hi All, Hope you are all well. Look forward to seeing each and everyone of you.

Love ya,
Linda

Hope to be at the 40th reunion this summer and catch up with everyone! The 10th was the last one I was able to attend. (I sometimes have a busy schedule doing law enforcement background investigation report that keeps me here in Southern California, but with luck I hope to work around them.) I know the reunion committee will do a great job coordinating this big event....good luck to all of you!

Just looking at the names bring back memories. Can't wait to see friends from good ole Waco High.

After looking at the alumni list I found that I do remember most of you but the question is ... Do you remember me?

Well, it won't be long before our 40th and am looking foward to seeing you all again. I have not made the other reunions but I guess I will make this one. Well, see you then.

[note: After 40 years, we're ALL going to need Photo ID's. See you there!!! ~the webguy]

40 years!!!!! I have a son 39! I have Grandchildren! We surely are not OLD...

I married & moved to Dallas 41 years ago. (yeah yeah) I eloped and got my GED instead of sticking around Waco. Well guess what ... I have remarried & live on the Brazos river 17 miles north of Waco..I look forward to seeing many of you guys. Because I'm coming too!!!!

Well, I am really looking forward to seeing everyone in June. I can't believe I received the email right out of the blue. I have been disconnected from everyone for so long, I was quite surprised. I haven't been back to Waco since my sister graduated in 1970 something. I hope I don't get lost. I am one of the kids that was in the Waco State Home and I haven't even been to one of their reunions. They have theirs every June also, maybe I can hit two birds with one stone. Hope to see you all soon. Virginia C. Johnson

Great to hear from you all. I think the webpage is great. Looking forward to the reunion in June. Bob Massey

40 years, WOW! Say it ain't so! I just wanted to say hello to everyone. I am looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones in June. If you don't have a Facebook page, let me encourage you to create one. It is a great and safe way to stay connected. Blessings to you all!

We of the Class of '69 are truly family. I commend Pam Gardner Dunlap and other members of the WHS '69 staff for keeping us together.

I appreciate Debbie Bizzeell Hintz's comments. I was involved in the Prince Hall Pilgrimage to Brenham in 1995, with events at St. John AME Church and at one of the hotels. I wrote about it in my second book. I hope and pray that our 40-year reunion will be the best ever.

Just wanted to say "hello" to all my former classmates. 40 years out of high school! I find that hard to believe. I have so many memories of old Waco High. Can't wait to see you all. Debbie
