TVHS 1962 50th Class Reunion in Rock Island, IL on 10/6/12

Recently my fellow graduates from the 2nd class ever to graduate from the consolidated school from the towns of Fort Atkinson, Lawler, Protivin, St. Lucas, and Waucoma met to fellowship and reminisce at the Holiday Inn located in Rock Island, Illinois. The site was chosen because Tom McGreevey (spouse Carla) and Jane Sloan-Huber (spouse Leo) who live in the Quad Cities agreed to host it.

There were 43 in our graduating class, 6 of whom are deceased and were remembered with a moment of silence: Allyn Einck, Frances Skretta, Marian Macal, Patty Carlin, Jimmy Wichman, and Kenny Lechtenberg.

Fourteen graduates (plus spouses/guests) were in attendance and we had a terrific time telling stories from the past, bragging about grandchildren, and expressing gratitude for those times together five decades ago. (Bill Sheridan)
