Memories from the Class of '44

Got this email from a Temple alum from the Class of '44.
Mr. Powell:


I'm glad this year's Temple reunion was a great success. I am 81, graduated at Temple High in 1944 and wish I'd made it to the reunion. Our Class of '44 had small reunions on even-numbered years until we dwindled down to a very few, at least of those near enough to this area to attend the get-togethers.

My husband (who was from Spavinaw in NE Oklahoma) was ill the last fourteen years of his life after several CVA's, so was unable to participate in sizeable groups or events of any length. I sort of lost contact with many.

Glad you had a good time and hope to make the next reunion. I visit my sister, Betty, in Temple Manor Nursing Home. She likes to go out for lunch and for rides in the car. I look forward to lunch at the new restaurant in Temple on Tuesday, weather permitting.

I enjoy your E-mail messages.

Thank you,
Billie (Frances Brown) Campbell
