The 50th year reunion is now history!
How suddenly it arrived and how quickly it was over.
And what a wonderful renewal of acquaintances it provided.
Handshakes, hugs, smiling faces everywhere. What a happy group!
As always, countless times past were recalled from unfading memories
and we were those carefree kids of the mid-50's again. We are family.

Too soon we were saying our goodbyes again in those moments so brief.

And yet, in retrospect is seems the timing was just right. There was so much exchange that more would have been too much, what we now call information overload, and it would all have become a blur. As it were, recollections of moments past continue to materialize in our memories, providing another moment of treasured comfort.

Our reunion committee, their spouses, countless volunteers, and many others
did a top notch job in planning and executing the events in flawless fashion.
They make it look so easy!

Classmates responded to their efforts with a record turnout to the events.
MANY many thanks to all who made the moments memorable.

During the coming weeks and months watch for changes here on our web site
as details of the events and photos of our classmates are added.

So check back often to see what's new and what's news.
We'll try to keep you informed of news related to the class of '57
and a few extras related to the Michiana area.

Thanks to all who offered comments and compliments regarding the web site.
My vision for the future of the site is that it become a place of virtual reunion
for our classmates who are absent from the real events for whatever reason,
and a place where we all might refresh our memories of friends and events.

Your host here, Dick Luer.
