Hello Dobyns Bennett classmates... I am once again going to be using this website to update our classmates, near and far, about what is going on with our class.   I have used it in the past, but I began the google group, which was able to send out emails to all of our classmates at once, and I have sort of walked away from the blogger site. 

Since we seem to be having some difficulties getting mail (many of our classmates), I think I will blog again!

That way you can check what's happening at your leisure at this spot. 

Thanks!

God bless us everyone!

Barbara's little accident...

Hey guys, I just want you to know what's been going on since Monday.  I was at an estate sale, and the fellow was taking some of my great buys out to the car, and I fell.  I saw the first step, didn't see the second one! 

Anyway, after gathering my wits for a bit, I decided that I was okay to drive to the ER because the affected leg is the left one.  I can drive with my right one!  And there wasn't any pain at that time.

ER took X-Rays, no broken bones (and that's bad, the ortho tech told me :(...  ), so I went home with friend Carolyn Slaughter.  My cousin came by to sit with me, and help me through the next day.  I got an appointment with one of the gurus at Anne Morrison Garber's office... and when I went today, he said, I think we can get an appt. for an MRI this afternoon, then bring the CD to me, and we'll schedule your surgery tomorrow, if surgery is needed. 

So.,.. I may be laid up tomorrow, and I may not be able to make it to First Friday.  !!!  Darn it all!

Jim Blessing and his wife are coming, and I wanted to be there!  Here's hoping you'll have a good turnout for him! 

God bless us everyone!

Long hot summer

I haven't been entering any posts for a long time. Once we got a large number of my classmates on our google group, I decided to just email our reunion and update information via email. There may be some who aren't getting our info because of that... Hope not.

Hope everyone is well and staying cool during this Long Hot Summer!

Teacher caricatures were awesome!

A lot of our classmates will remember Coach Guy B. Crawford!

Head basketball coach during our high school years.

I can't believe I've been away from this site for so long... but I have been writing at the new Dobyns Bennett High School Class of 1960 50th Reunion FACEBOOK site. So I will probably not be writing any new posts here after today. I think I can cover everything with the google group

and / or the FACEBOOK site. We are trying desperately to find those in our class who have disappeared from our radar. If you have any knowledge of any of our classmates, please let me know. You can reach me at bcoughenour@gmail.com.

We had an amazing turnout at Friday's lunch at O'Charley's ... even with the snow! Marlene Snyder McConnell and husband R.V, Diana Woodard Agett and husband Andy, Ben and Jane Beck Harris, Cris and Theona Moorehouse, Sondra Dotson Bridwell and myself! Yummmm, it was good! The snow wasn't too bad, the crews have worked very hard to clear them, so it was relatively clear from here to Eastman Road! God bless us everyone! BC
