The web guy...
Moscow Idaho, Class of 1965 - Class Reunion
 
I thought I'd take a minute and exercise a bit of "privilege" to give you an update on what I've been up to relative to our site..

First.... I hope you like my picture (the mature gent on the right above).  It's not my best picture.. but it is representative of what may happen after nearly 60 years of life experience.  I suspect it also has something to do with E.T. stuff... or the myth of "shape shifting".  We surely can take pride in our ability to persist!

I hope all will continue to share their stories and adventures, including pictures, so they can be included on their pages.

  • I received some some more updates from Ken Caldwell ( party specialist).
More Fun times....
Me (Ken Caldwell), Harriot Hagedorn, Steve Talbott, Andrea Peterson Beckett, Linda Watts Newberry, Barbara Boyd Gropp, Tim Brown, Sally Hylton Weaver and Denny Mulalley. Bonnie Martinson, Sherla Thompson and LeNelle Martin were there too but had to leave before the picture. It was a lot of fun.
 

MORE FYI: Using the excellent search function Bill built into the website, I discovered that 67 of our classmates are living in Idaho, and 55 live in Moscow, or within a half hour drive! Next time I'll contact them all. Should be able to double today's turnout with enough advanced warning.

Ken also passed along a new Email for Wayne Westberg. I put the detail on Wayne's page.

Sherla (Thompson) Francis' husband Phil passed away about a month ago of a massive heart attack. Many of us knew Phil, also a MHS alum. Barb suggests that hearing from classmates might bring a little sunshine for Sherla.

  • An update from Connie Dahmen Sever.

    It's been a while since we've added news of what's been going on around our house but.. it's time to put finger to keyboard...

    Last Thursday (the 14th) we brought Bill's Mom to our home so we can give her the security and care she needs. She's 84 and her health seems to be failing.

    Things like that are bound to cause a few changes and a bit of stress but... when coupled with the Cottonwood trees that are exploding up here... I chose to try a decongestant to help relieve my stuffy head and burning eyes.

    We now know that any kind of remedy with a "Decongestant" included in it is a very bad thing for folks with heart issues, especially those with Pacemaker - Defibrillators. Decongestants act as heart stimulants and... with the faster heartbeat... BOOM.. My defibrillator gave me a jump start. Once the cardiologist figured out what caused the event, I received a pretty stern scolding from him and got to spend the night in the hospital.

    I'm home and feeling fine, shopping, etc... I don't need to see the cardiologist for another 90 days (about normal).... but... weeks like the last one need to be few and far between.

    Don't tell anyone but.. we may be getting to old for this stuff!

    I hope all are doing well and would sure like to hear from you all!

    Connie & Bill

  • A Website Server Update....,

  • Our little company (NetBest Internet Services) continues to grow. This week we acquired some nice shinny new high-tech hardware (dual-core, high speed servers) and I thought MHS1965.com would be a good candidate to transfer to the new machine. If you're reading this.. the new site is up and running.

  • A "Connie Dahmen Sever Update"....

    What a weekend,

    This week-end (18th - 20th), Connie and I were prepaired to host a "Family Reunion" at our home here in CdA. Folks began to arive around dinner time on Friday... and we had a nice spagetti feed set in the back yard.

    At about 9:00pm.... Connie's defibrulator went off and we were off to the hospital...  she was released late Saturday afternoon... so much of the weekend was a blurrrrrrrr.......

    Doctors tell us that the pacemaker - defibrulator has done it's job and that, as far as we know now, there's no additional damage to her heart.

    We're going to have to be a lot more careful about our tendancy to "over-do".

    Meanwhile.. family members pitched in.. and the family reunion was a good one.

    Connie got to enjoy Saturday night and Sunday morning events... by relaxing with the family; greatful to have her home...    Bill

  • I've been capturing small photos of each classmate attending the reunion and adding them to their pages. There are a few faces that I need pictures for... (The ones I have are blurry or VERY un-flattering..) If you have Pictures from the reunion, I'd sure love to have them. Take a look!
