Okay my THS Class of 1974 . . . here's our 50th class reunion photo. What an "amazing" day it was . . . And I'd like to thank you all . . . for making it a day to remember . . . You know . . . if we've learned nothing else in life . . . "Time" and "good friends" are 2 things that "become" more "valuable" the "older" that we get. And we find in this journey of ours . . . just how "important" it is to "know" the people that "knew" us when . . . Other things may "change" in life . . . but, this journey we're on . . . "started" with and ultimately "ends" with our family of classmate. Because . . . no "distance" of place . . . or "lapse" of time can "lessen" the friendships of those who were instrumental to who we are today. We're all "friends" for life (accept it or not) Isn't that what matters? To have "someone" who can remember "with you"? And to have "someone" who remembers how far you've come? It's a "validation" that "no one" else in your journey through life can give you!!! Well . . . the class of "1974" is going to keep that "bond" going . . . So, we're "gathering together again" on Sept. 6th 2025 here at Miracle Meadows Farm. And we so "hope" you will be able to join us!!! Until we meet again my friends . . .

Carol Webber, Nancy Gebhardt, Dave Perry, Hugh O'Neill, Brian Johnson, Phil Richardson, David Burnham, Brent Gottier, Guy Wanegar, Jeff Conley, Lee Dresie, Wanda Bilodeau, and Mindy Ludwig A great time was had my all. Love you guys!!!!! Until we meet again . . . same time . . . same place . . . next year . . . Saturday, September 6th, 2025.

So, our 50th reunion started off with a bang! The night before . . . many of us gathered for a "meet and greet" at Tolland Pizza . . . One of our many old "hang outs" . . . Such good memories were made at that pizza place and . . . in that parking lot. lol And the "night before" . . . would be no different.

Well, my THS 1974 Alumni . . . tomorrow is the big day . . . But tonight Friday September 6th . . . we start this celebration of "50" years postgraduation . . . With a "meet and greet" at Tolland Pizza at 7:00pm So, stop by for a little pizza and good conversation. Or . . . SEE YOU TOMORROW . . . Saturday, September 7th . . . 12 noon - 6 pm . . . at Miracle Meadows Farm! If you haven't yet bought your ticket . . . they will be sold at the door. So don't miss out on this "milestone" event.

My dear THS Class of 1974 . . . We're another week "closer" to our 50th class "reunion" . . . And last night . . . I was doing a little reminiscing . . . going through our yearbook . . . Thinking about the "fallen eagles" from our class . . . that won't have the "opportunity" to gather together again with us. As we know . . . when an eagle "bows" its head . . . it bows in "honor" of a "fallen eagle" . . . So, to honor our "fallen eagles" . . . that are with the angels above . . . I "bow" my head in a moment of remembrance . . . These are our "eagles" . . . and the thoughts they left us with . . . when we graduating 50 year ago. Regina Stefaniak . . . I've saved some sunlight if you should ever need a place away from darkness. Leslie Lemek . . . make the most of the best and the least of the worst. Tom Elwell . . . to him whose elastic and vigorous thought keeps pace with the sun, the day is a perpetual morning. Amber Farney . . . many people wander up the hill from all around you making up your memories. John Horn . . . come on it's up to me, it's up to you, so let's do it now . . . can't stand it no more, the people cheating, burning each other they know it ain't right. Laurie Dandurand . . . without honesty there is no truth, without truth there is no love. Kevin Kalagher . . . simplicity is the beauty of life. Mark Lombardo . . . Ricky Roff . . . if it feels good, do it. Greg Pezzente . . . the woods contain a life of their own which no one can own. Charlene Gracie . . . and as the afternoon gives up the summer sun the shadow lengthens slowly one by one a million colors dart and dance and die, across the sky. Lydia Panfili . . . truth is not everything you see. Al Bachiacchi . . . I'll have enough money to last me the rest of my life, as long as I don't buy anything. Diane Mattesen . . . we've seen so many winters come and so many old years go and held so many hands at dawn, we never really got to know each other. Jeff Tompkins . . . keep on trucking. Terry Jedrziewski. . . tomorrow is not promised us . . . so let us take today . . . and make the very most of it . . . the once we pass this way. Steve Wilcox . . . it is well to let a little sunshine out as well as in. Sharon Sherman . . . I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon the earth and be an atheist, but I can't conceive how he could look up into the heavens and say there is no God. Life . . . is "short" my friends . . . don't miss out on what "could be" . . . the "last" time we get to see our fellow classmates. September 7th, 2024.

Time is "flying" by . . . my THS Class of "1974" . . . Saturday, September 7th, 2024 . . . will be here before you can blink an eye! So, pack your bags . . . get your high school memorabilia ready to bring . . . and pick out your favorite outfit to wear . . . Because this party is getting ready to "get started"!!!!! You know . . . it was once said . . . We "all" . . . take different paths in life . . . But . . . no matter where we go . . . We "all" take a little "youth" with us . . . that sometimes . . . we like to show . . . We "didn't" realize . . . we were making "memories" way back then . . . We just "knew" . . . we were having "FUN" . . . and getting in "trouble" now and again. But sadly . . . "what" we "NEVER" knew . . . Was the "VALUE" of those moments . . . until those days were through! Now . . . I know . . . it's our "50th" reunion . . . A "milestone" at its best . . . With balloons and streamers . . . to give it some zest . . . It's a day of being a little older . . . a little wiser . . . with many stories to tell . . . But, then . . . the "magic happens" . . . and our "youth" comes out as well . . . So, my fellow classmates . . . as we travel through life . . . just know . . . This is an opportunity to "go back" to say . . . "HELLO"! So, please . . . don't miss out on the chance to relax, reconnect with old friend, remember fond memories . . . and take new journeys with classmates from far and near . . . And remember, PLEASE purchase your ticket(s) before Aug 24th so our caterer will know how much food to bring. Or DM me if you "can't" pay by that date . . . or you plan to pay at the door. Thanks, and hope to see you soon. Min
