I was so sorry to hear about Doug's passing. He was such a nice guy. We had classes together in Greiner and Sunset. Our prayers are with Jan and the family.
Although I knew Libby in Greiner, I got to know her better when we stood next to each other in Bisonettes and in Concert Choir. It was always so hot at those choir concerts and we were packed like sardines on those risers. If someone passed out, you just squeezed together and kept singing. One time I thought she was fainting , so I held her up. She thought I was the one fainting, so she held me up! Even Mr. White thought it was funny.
We always had so much fun. I think of her as always laughing and joking. Libby always looked so pretty and put together. She will be greatly missed. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. I am sure she has them laughing in heaven.

We were in classes together from 8th grade thru 12th. She had a beautiful voice and we were in "Note Nuts" together with Ms. Brown in 8th. as well as Girls' Chorus and Concert Choir. She was so funny and so dramatic. Her younger sister, Chris, was in my Spanish class when I taught at Sunset. I am so sad to hear about her passing.

Sue--You will not believe that my mom still has several acres in Cooper and Delta County. My aunt and uncle still live in Cooper and were members of First Baptist. I think that they are with a group that has formed a new church. Their names are Pat and Clyde Waters. I also have a cousin that I think still lives there--Jimmy Waters. Isn't it a small world? Hope to see you at the Reunion! Sheila Waters Taylor

Got it and sent it in. Also, you should have received the table decorations by today or tomorrow. As I said, do not feel obligated to use them if you do not like them.
I too feared and revered Mr. White, but also loved the discipline and perfection that he expected from all of us. I have been in a choir both school and church since I was 4 years old. What I learned from Mr. White has be invaluable. I have used what he taught us in so many ways, especially in my teaching--dance, drill team and children's choirs.
The musicals were the most fun I have ever had. I loved every minute of them. I have gotten to experience them again as choreographer for the musicals in our high school. The teachers even got to be in one of the first ones that we did, "Annie" as the Hooverville people. My favorite was my grandson's senior year when he was the lead in "Grease". I had put him in bit parts from the time he was 8 or so, but from Jr. High on he and his football friends were all in drama class and were in all of the musicals. Seeing him in that role was the greatest.
Again the experience I had from our musicals helped me so much. Mr. White was wonderful, even if he scared us to death. Maybe our schools would not have as many problems now if more teachers could be like him. He certainly did not worry about hurting our self esteem. He expected perfection and we did our dead level best to give it to him.
