Your City or Town? Dallas (Oak Cliff), Texas Comments: Happy Thanksgiving 2009 Thanksgiving or Thanksgiving Day, presently celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November, has been an annual tradition in the United States since 1863. It did not become a federal holiday until 1941. Thanksgiving was historically a religious observation to give thanks to God, but is now primarily identified as a national holiday. The First Thanksgiving was celebrated to give thanks to God for helping the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony survive the brutal winter. The first Thanksgiving feast lasted three days providing enough food for 53 pilgrims and 90 Indians. The feast consisted of fowl, venison, fish, lobster, clams, berries, fruit, pumpkin, and squash. However, the traditional Thanksgiving menu often features turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie. [1]Wikipedia.org

Your City or Town? Lewisville, Texas Comments:
Hi Shirley, Mary Helen Swaner (taught math) called me this afternoon to say that David Forgey (SP. sorry I don't recall if that's how it was spelled) died. Visitation will be at 6:30 Sunday night and services at 10:00 Monday morning at St. Thomas of Aquinas Church. His obit will be in either Friday or Saturday's paper and possibily Sunday's. Let any students you know about it. Thanks, Leola
Your City or Town? Lewisville, Texas Comments: Thank you so much, Ron, for letting us know about Michael Bridges. I try to keep up with the class of 1968. I will make sure the rest of our classmates know about it. I have not been on this site in quite awhile. Shirley McDonald Hawthorne
Your City or Town? Dallas, Texas Comments: As anticipated the DISD Board denied our plea last night to not oppose Landmark Status for Adamson. Board Member Carla Ranger asked excellent questions, which were largely unanswered, but the motion to oppose passed 8-1. Rod McFarland and Rene Schmidt did great representing our position, however. Dates and times will be posted here and on the homepage.
Your City or Town? Mt. Vernon Comments: I'm trying to find my dear friend Christine Gillispie; does anyone remember her or how I might get in touch with her? ---moderator comment giving a year will usually help best
Your City or Town? Enid, Oklahoma Comments: Ronnie, I don't think I can get down there for the 9/24 meeting. Hopefully, many of those that live closer can make it. At times like this I feel kind of frustrated because these meetings come with short notice and are a long ride for me. I hope those that attend will emphasize: 1. How many past graduates care so much about this as a preservation of our pasts; 2. The historical importance of the existing structure. It was the first Dallas high school south of the Trinity and it is the oldest. It is irreplaceable. 3. From a societal perspective, if we don't preserve the most historical structures and traditions from the past, it diminishes the future for all of us, old and young alike. Hope you and others will be the voices for those that can't attend. Norman Grey ' 64 |
