Thanks John, for this site.  I was sad to read of the passing of our classmates and look forward to seeing all of you this September.  Would love to sing the Alma Mater one more time with other members of choir and madrigals.

Message from John Carmichael

I plan on visiting Arlington Cemetery during this reunion to see several relatives buried there. I have a pass that allows me to drive throughout the cemetery and not have to walk. Anyone from out of town and is interested and would like a ride you can contact me at jvcrunner@comcast.net.

Hi John,

I didn't see a place under "Missing Classmates" where I could inform you that Richard Hess is no longer with us.  He moved to Minnesota with his family right after we graduated.  The motor mounts in the car he was driving broke and it caused the car to veer off the road and hit a tree.  He was in a coma for about a week, I think it was, before he died.  We ran cross country together and were good friends with many great memories in the short time we call high school.  Thanks for all the work you've done getting this together!

Mike,

Post Classmates who past away under "In Memory" page.

"Missing Classmates" are Classmates without contact information, email or address, in the database, whereabouts and contact info unknown as of 30th reunion.

They could have past away, as I get notification they will get moved to "In Memory" page.

If another Classmate provides contact information I can update the Missing Classmate's profile.

Hey John,

Never really got to know you very well, however, thanks for trying to get us old ratbags together.  Gosh has it really been 40 years gone.  No wonder it is getting harder to get up out of bed in the morning.

Best, Crystal DePalma Edington

Nice to have a site for keeping in touch; the internet is great for finding  folks. Forty years...whew! Where did it go. Look forward to seeing some of you in Sept's reunion. I'm finally taking the vacation and "heading home." Many great memories intertwined in CHS and DC area. May God bless ya'll. Chip

Vikki Young (Hale)

Many thanks, John, for your efforts to get us all together after all of these years - also to those who've helped you!  I haven't been back to Maryland since the '01 reunion, so this will be special!

 John:

Thank you so much for all of the work you have done on our behalf....not only on this site, but for a fabulous reunion.  It was great seeing everyone, and I think we should all work hard to find more of our classmates for the next one!

Richard Titi

Wayne:

Thanks for everything at Embassy last night and the slide show.  Great food and fellowship.  Nice to have Dr. Vest attend as well.  Perhaps we should have staged another 1963 style Temple Hills Beatles show for the crowd. :-)

Good Morning John,

Thank you for your efforts in organizing such a wonderful reunion for if it weren't for your efforts this wouldn't have happened.  It was great seeing our high school classmates that I hadn't seen in the last 20 to 40 years.  It was nice sitting next to Mr. Vest and dining with him.  The Embassy Suites was a great location in which to have the event.  The evening was just right.  My wish for you and everyone is for continued success and the Best that Life has to Offer.  I look forward to seeing everyone at our next one.

Sincerely,

John Sauer 

Christopher Cavas

 What a nice reunion - really was nice to see all those who showed up on both nights. Thanks much John for all your work on the event and the web site. 

David Fletcher

I was hoping to see some some photos of my old friends at the reunion. I was unable to attend due to work considerations (we got a 14 boat order with short lead time and that's why I couldn't come) but would love to live vicariously though the photos and blogs. I would love to see Mr Vest as a guest member. I would love to tell him how my life has turned out. I saw him at the 20th and spoke to him and Mr. Smith for a few minutes. I would love to have that opportunity again! Please post some pictures!

Hey CHS alumni,

If you would be interested in attending a gathering near Orlando, FL, on March 31, please either email me (owensr1953@yahoo.com) or respond here.  Several of us are trying to finalize time and venue, so we need to know about how many are interested.  The invitation also extends to other CHS First 10 Years alumni.

Hope to see you there!
