MHS Celebrates 55th Class Reunion |
Sixty-Seven classmates and their guests attended the reunion. Elrama Tavern provided a delicious buffet for both events, and fellow classmate, Karen (Oates) Kaufman and her daughter made wonderful homemade halupkis for the picnic.
The picnic included music, classics hits from the 1960's, with a shout-out from the DJ on Sirius channel "60s on 6", and tickets were drawn for cash door prizes. A group photo was taken by fellow classmate, Dave Savarino.
A big thank you to the reunion committee, including Paulette (Falorio) Hupchick, Dave and Barbara McVicker, Karen (Oates) Kaufman, Dave and Bonnie Scaglione, Ernie Smail, Jim Lacko, Charlie Wyandt, Donnie Giffen, JoJo Herman, John Fusco, Ron Dunbar, Helen (Slowaitis) Benzo, Donna (Kotecki) Mitchell, and Frank Sutts.
And thank you to all who helped with set-up, clean-up and planning for this fabulous weekend gathering.
The biggest thank you goes to Mary Jane (Gavaghan) Sutts for all her love, hard work and dedication in keeping updated on all classmates and organizing all of our 5-year reunions and birthday celebrations. The next get-together will be to celebrate our 75th birthdays in the year 2021.
