Four new members added to Reunion Committee

In a move to garner some fresh ideas (and to correct a June/January class and gender imbalance) four new members were added to the HPHS Class of 55 Reunion Committee in time for a meeting at Libby Robnett Meyers home on May 28. The four are Bill McRae and Hugh Rucker (June class) and Robert Allday and Phil Lack (January class). They participated actively in the discussions, asked good questions and made valuable suggestions.

Howard Compton, Jerry Prager, Libby Meyers, Nan Alexander,  Bill McRae,  Mary Barber,  Hugh Rucker, Ann Beasley, Sam Gottlieb, Kay Peters,  Robert  Allday, Bev Coben,  Bob Marwill, Trudie Smither, Phil Lack, Dorothy Hulsey

Latest News

Our deepest sympathy to Howard Compton on the death of his sister Mary Deen (M.D.) Compton Mansfield.  M.D. entered eternal life on July 20, 2010.  Services were held today at Believer's Chapel in Dallas.  "May she rest in peace, and may light perpetual shine upon her."(July 23, 2010)

More

than a "Rocket Scientist"

Continuing from the current HPHS 1955 Newsletter, here is Stewart Woodward’s remarkable account of his experiences as a “rocket scientist”, an aerospace engineer:

Would you please indulge a retired rocket scientist as he reminisces his experiences in the rocket profession? To be very accurate I was an aerospace engineer, but now days it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to do a lot of tasks so I thought there would be more work opportunities to be an aerospace engineer.

Carolyn and I are fine, just celebrated our 50th with our sons and grandsons. We have a condo right on the ocean and beach that we have had for many years.  Lots of fun with the grandkids and our sons grew up on this beach---Amelia Island.  We spend most weekends here thru out the year and then go into Jacksonville to our church on Sunday am.  I had both knees replaced in February at the same time but recovery has been great and without any problems.  Hard to realize that we have now been in Florida 38 years this September!  We are planning on coming to te 2010 so hope you and your family are doing well and we look forward to seeing you then!---Carolyn sends her greetings!---bud
