After a warm gathering and distribution of name tags (very stylish and helpful since some of us had changed a bit over the years), Bryce Hanson welcomed the classmates and invited all to join in a moment of silence in memory of our departed classmates.
Terrall Hanson offered an invocation thanking God for our meal as we began our celebration. There was expressed gratitude for the opportunity to gather in fellowship and a request that our friendships may be strengthened and our lives brightened.
The buffet of Prime rib and salmon was delicious and the conversation around the table enchanting and renewing.
Mike Byrne and LaNae Poulter as co-chairs presented fun awards followed by honoring two members of the Class of 1969 as our 40th Anniversary Class Heroes: Robert W. Nelson and Calvin Sullenger. Nominations are welcome for honorees for the 45th Anniversary (see details below in "Awards and Hereos" posting).
Following a reminder that contrary to tradition, the Class of 1969 has not yet given a gift to Rigby High School, the opportunity to contribute to a matching grant was extended to all (see details below in "Matching Grant Opportunity" posting).
If anyone has reunion photos they would like to share on the blogspot, please email them as attachments to rigby1969@gmail.com.
Classmates were encouraged to keep contact information up-to-date by registering on the High School Website (www.alumniclass.com/rigby/login)
