Just happened to have stumbled upon this page wow didnt even know this existed yet alone that anyone was even looking for me. So in a nutshell...I currently live in NC with my boys Bandit and Lucas(the 4 legged kind that is). I work for a small company Named Bridgewerks making power controllers for train enthusiasts. I have a daughter who will be 23 in November and she currently lives with her boyfriend in WV. So other than the normal creeks of getting older all is well on my end ;)

I just stumbled upon this page, saw my name in the Help Us Find section and thought that I would say HELLO to the Class of 1981. How nice to recall so many names and faces. I\'ve been curious about the next reunion. Are there details available? I live in Boulder, CO and have for 18 years now. I\'m married/no children. I am currently not employed but am an active volunteer and hobbyist. My husband, Bryan, works for an aerospace firm here in Boulder. My mother and my sister and her family still live in the Hershey area.

I stumbled across this site the other day and since I\'m on the "Where are they now" list, I thought I would sign in.
I\'ve been around the country a bit since leaving Hershey. Penn State for college (Meteorology), Texas Tech for grad school (Lubbock, Atmoshperic Science). After school, I worked for the Army for a year as a weather forecaster in Yuma, AZ. I\'ve been with the National Weather Service for the past 20 years. My professional travels have taken me to Camp Springs, MD, Kansas City, MO and now the far southwest suburbs of Chicago (Plainfield, IL), where I\'ve been for the past 7 years. I\'ve been married for 13 years to my wife, JoAnna and we have an 11 year old son, Alex. We also have a cat, Tango, and a big shaggy beast of a Golden Retriever, Teddy. I don\'t get back to the area often, but my older brother, Steve class of \'79, still lives nearby.

Wow! I never knew this site existed. Where have I been? Pretty cool! I am so sorry I did not attend the 25th reunion after seeing all these pics. Some people were so easy to recognize. Hopefully I will be able to attend the next one. This is my life in a nut shell. I have recently married a wonderful man his name is Mike and we live in Crofton, Md. It's a few miles outside of Annapolis. We have two very spoiled dogs who are our children. I have two children from my first marriage Amanda and Kyle. Amanda is married and has 3 small children, Madison, Aidan and Bayly. Kyle is not married and is an artist. I work full time and go to school trying to finish my degree in Accounting. I hope to see you all again someday. This is a very nice site. Kudos to the person who put this together. LOL Bec

Most of you should have received your reunion books. If you have not yet, you should shortly. I wanted to let everyone know there are a couple of spelling errors in the book. Maria is working with Life Touch in the hopes they will re-print the books. This is because she corrected these errors twice. I would imagine if this happens it will be labor intensive and will take some time. I will keep everyone posted. If you have questions, please feel free to e-mail me, but I will admit, I don't check it everyday.

Hi everyone. I hope you are all doing well and finding some relaxing time during this holiday season. I received this from a staff member at my school and thought you might be interested. It's a neat way of saying thank you to our troops.
Something cool that Xerox is doing
If you go to this web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com you can pick out a thank
you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is
currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go
to some member of the armed services.
How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!
This is a great site.
Please send a card. It is FREE and it only takes a second.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these? Whether
you are for or against the war, our guys and gals over there need to know
we are behind them...

It was so great to see everyone. So great that I stuck around for Hershey's homecoming game the next weekend! Had to have one more night at Shakey's with Carl. (Carl, you're right -- nothing this good was happening in Idaho). I hope to get together with the "locals" when I'm home for Christmas.

Ken Bender update....
Just got off the phone w/ Ken. Spirits are high and he is in less pain today than yesterday. Dr says he can go home tomorrow or Sunday. He's very ready for a cold beer and to watch football from his couch. He's on crutches so I told him if he needed any lessons, I was the one to talk to. The address and phone number Brian O has for Ken a few posts back is the correct one. Drop him a card of call. He'll be laid up for a month or more.
As for the Class of 82', see us next year. Planning a 25th year reunion takes years off your life!! Plus, I've seen a few of you, you havn't aged THAT gracefully.

Thank you Brian for providing Ken's address.
I spoke to Ken around 4pm today and although he was in an incredible amount of pain from the surgery, he is doing well.....all things considered.
The doctors were hoping to save part of each toe but during the surgery, they realized that they had to amputate the entire part of toe three and four. He thinks he'll be getting out of the hospital in the next couple of days.
I guess Ken's one little piggy will no longer be having "roast beef" and the other piggy will cetainly be having "none".

For those of you still reading our website and are close friends of Ken Bender, I wnated you to know that he was in a serious accident at work last Friday, Oct.13th....hmmm?
He has been in the hopsital since that time. He severly injured his right foot and is praying he won't have to have two toes amputated. As of yesterday, his prognosis wasn't too good. The doctors have already put two pins in two other toes.
He is very lucky to have his foot at all.
If anyone would like to contact him at the hospital, this is his direct line.

I just came from the hopsital where I saw Ken Bender and he updated me on his foot status. Unfortunatlely he goes back into surgery tomorrow morning to have his toes amputated.
He is trying to be brave on the outside, but he has been in ALOT of pain for numerous days and is sick of the hospital. Now he is dealing with the fact that he is losing two toes.
Some of you have inquired about his home address, which I do not know. I will get it from him and post it to this guest book.
If anyone gets a chance, give him a call before his surgery. The doctors will come and get him tomorrow, Oct 18th around 9am. He should be back in his room around 12:30pm.
Again, his hospital room number is:

Some new faces came out who couldn't make the reunion and we started the love fest all over again. The Class of 76' was there too but they were no match for the Class of 81's enthusiasm. The best part was seeing Sandy Buchan Arndt selling 50/50 tickets. I had to buy a few, right? Good choice, I won! Drinking money for the gang afterwards. Pictures will be up soon. Next up? Halloween pictures. Check out the Current events page.

I cant believe I'm wasting this beautiful day down loading photos, but the demand is to great. By the way, I found two rolls of film from my regular camera that I forgot I had. Which mean MORE PHOTOS from the Friday night drunk/love fest. The scary thing is, I dont remember talking half of them. That must mean I had a good time, huh? Also, my date on Saturday night, Liz Lunney (Class of 83') had a blast and told me more than a few times what a "fun class" we were and wished the class of 83 was half as fun. Dont forget, Friday night Homecoming game!!!

Okay peeps... we reconfigured the page a little. We deleted a few things from the page and changed a few things around. We took out the "Details of Events" page and made it a "Current Events" page. Little things that Brian, myself or anyone from the commitee want to remind you of or keep you apprised of. That way it'll keep you coming back to the site to see what's coming up and view more photos. Keep sending them in! Homecomeing is up first and approching fast (4 days). Go on the 'current events' page and see what the locals are planning. Hope we can get a good turn out, especially the ones who live in the area but couldnt make the reunion (Cheryl). No need to respond, just show up at the box office at 6:30 this Friday!

While we have everyone's attention, please take a look at the "Help Us Find" list and see if you have any contact information on the classmates we do not have email addresses (or mailing addresses) for.
If you think you have already sent us something, please resend as it has been a little busy lately and we might have missed it :-)

Hey Everyone! Great time this weekend. For those of you who were there Friday and or Saturday, my thanks you to you all for letting me stick my camera in your faces. Special thanks to Kim Eagles husband Kevin for the extra batteries so I could continue to take more pictures. Thank you to everyone for the great compliments on the Friday night party and picture show. I'll get Saturday nights pictures up, probably tomorrow since I have the day off. Like Brian said, I need a day to recoop and watch football. For anyone interested, remember that this Friday night is Homecoming and we're planning on getting together before hand then heading to the game. Keep checking the website for more definite details.

WOW! What a fricken blast to see so many old friends this past friday, really wish i could have gotten there much earlier but had to work Auto Auction. So a big hello to those i missed. Hope to see those who are still local at the homecoming game on friday. Saturday night was so nice, I can honestly say i hated to see it end. You don't realize how much you miss everyone till your all together. What a great group of people. Hope everyone who has to travel have a safe trip. FYI for those i didn't see, i'm still local, i'm still in the cosmetic industry working on the regional make-up artist team for Lancome Cosmetics mostly central and east coast of PA. My two beautiful girls Devon now seventeen and a senior and Alexis eleven and in sixth grade are driving me crazy i mean doing great. I'll post pictures at a later date. Everyone take care.

Hello class! I've had a lot of fun reading these and looking at the pictures. This website is a great. Thanks to the Reunion Committee and Brian O. My special thanks to Ellen Curry Alquist for having her husband Bill track me down to get me off of the missing persons list. Even though I have been living right down the road in Lancaster for the last 25 years, I have lost touch with mostly all of you. I promise I will do better in reconnecting over the next 25! The last I saw everyone was at the 15th Reunion. Since then I got married to Jennifer (a Lancaster local…she was with me at the 15th) and we have 3 wonderful children, Anthony 8, Vinny 7, and Mary Anna 5. Life is great! With having a Tony and Vinny now, I think a pizza shop may be in my future. I have been working at HIGH Industries for the past 11 years, currently as the Assistant Treasurer. Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend all of the fun at this year’s reunion, but I look forward to checking back into this site for the pictures. Have fun and see you at the 30th.

Hi Everyone! It has been so much fun checking out this website and all of the great pictures! I am still living in Northern California with my husband Jeff and my 3 children, Jared 12, Jason 10 and Jillian 7. Between the 3 of them we are involved in every sport you can think of! It's a crazy life but I wouldn't trade it. I am still practicing dentistry very part-time in a pediatric practice. I am sad to say I won't be at the reunion. We are going to Hawaii 2 days later and I just couldn't fit it all in. So, I'll be looking forward to hearing all about it when I return! Take lots of pictures and have a great time!

I, unfortunately, will not be able to make the trip to Hershey this time. My wife, Lynda Gingrich '82 of Palmyra, and I have lived in Kirkland, Washington for 10 years. (I look forward to reconnecting with classmates who live in the Puget Sound area). We have two boys, Alex 5, and A.J. 3. Both my and my wife's extended families still live in the Hershey area, and we visit frequently. We will catch you the next time.

From my first marriage ( Dave Hall ) I have two terrific kids...Lee, will be 24 in Jan. 2007 and is a graduate from SHIP and Maggie, who is 21, is a junior at American University in Washington DC. She is a varsity starter on the field hockey team and has a game on the weekend of the reunion, thus our unavailability to attend ( we never miss her games ).

Hi everyone ! I'm enjoying the website and finally took a spare moment to write in. My husband Joe & I still live in New Hope (Bucks County), PA. Our daughters Avery (10) and Sydney (7) are great ! Both play soccer, Avery does gymnastics & Sydney just started on the diving team. I tried to talk her out of it ! I have been working for Novartis Pharmaceuticals for 15 years as a pharmaceutical sales rep. I currently do a job-share & therefore work part-time. I was very much looking forward to this reunion until my USTA tennis team made it to the National Championships. So I will be playing tennis in Arizona & hoping to win a title with my team. Have a great time & I hope alot of pictures get posted to the web-site. See you all @ the 30th. Please drop me a email @ susanlynn.allen@novartis.com.

Hi Everyone!! Finally got a chance to go through the website-great job!!!!! Had a few laughs and some heartaches reading all the messages. Since the last reunion I found my first-born, via the internet (God ya gotta love it!). She will be 26 this December and we've had a great relationship. She made me a grandma 3 years ago and I'm loving every minute of it. My other four children (ages 24, 21, 12 and 8) have kept me very busy over the years. I was married twice (obviously marriage is NOT for me! haha) and have basically raised my kids on my own. I'm currently living in Schuylkill Co. up by Tamaqua in a house I just bought, yes I'm a first-timer at the age of 41. I'm looking to be moving back into the Hershey area within a year to be closer to my family. I'm definately coming to the reunion, so I'll see you all then. Have a good one!

Well, I just checked out Mike Horrock's web site. I didn't know Mike that well, but I certainly do remember that smile that lit up a room, and the constant smile and twinkle in his eye. After having read some of the pieces about him, it seems he stayed that way and touched everyone he met. I cannot believe that those two precious children have had their beautiful father taken from them. And Miriam is left to raise them alone. Not everyone is fortunate enough to find a soul mate in life. She found him, then lost him. I propose we make a donation as a class to Mike's children's trust fund. As most of us think about planning for college for the kids, it would be nice to help out Mike's kids. May those of us who knew Mike well and who perhaps didn't know him so well reflect on his memory and use it to help rededicate ourselves to the tasks at hand - remebering God's love, and caring for our family, friends and country. May God bless Mike's family and all those who still feel his loss.

How FUN!!! OK, so I'm one of those who didn't graduate from Hershey...but am lucky enough to be included on the list :0) Wish I could attend, as it's been 15 years since I've seen most of you. Still living in Colorado (since 1982)...it's a great vacation if anyone wants to come visit...you're always welcome! My oldest son, Jacob (20), is touring with his band "Drop Dead, Gorgeous". It's always been his dream to be famous & they're well on their way. Baylee (18) works at a hair salon in Denver, Headbangers (definately not the "traditional" hair cut!) Ariel (16) is striving for both academic & golf scholarships...very successful in both & my "baby" Michael (13) is a typical teenager (UGH!) always on the computer. Again, wish I could join you all at the reunion...sounds like it's going to be great! Call me (or email) if you're ever headed to Colorado! 720-427-0950

Thanks for setting up this web site, reading it brings back memories from long ago. I currently live in Belmont, Mass., just outside Boston, and work as a senior editor for an astronomy magazine called Sky & Telescope. I get back to Hershey a few times a year to visit family and friends, but will be on vacation in California at the time of the reunion. I hope everyone who attends has a great time! Please make sure to remember Michael Horrocks. Even though I did not know him well, I continue to be profoundly saddened that a high school classmate of mine sacrificed his life on 9/11.

Hello Everyone, This is a great website. I don't know if I will be attending the reunion on not. It sounds great though. Hope to be there. I live in Fredericksburg, VA, married 20 years with 3 children. Austin-17, Samuel-12 and Hannah-18 months. Yes, I know what a span in children. Hannah was a definite surprise. Never thought I would have a child at 41.
Joined with Navy for 4 years after high school where I met my wonderful husband. I have been a stay at home mom for most of the time, with a few jobs in between. I currently returned to work full time working at Quantico Marine base here in the area working for the Dept of the Navy. It is wonderful to hear what everyone has been doing with their lives.

And speaking of pictures..... 10 years is sufficiant time for the person who "borrowed" my photo album from the 10 year reunion to have made copies of all my elementary class photos. Remember? Red photo album, lots of great party pictures. If you could just return it, slip it on a table Saturday night. No questions asked!
ANYWAYS..... give me a day and make sure you check out the photo album I put together on this page! See you all in a month!

Excellent job on the website and thank you to all of you who have put your time and energy into making this reunion happen. I live in Jupiter, Florida which is in the southern part of Florida, Palm Beach County.....yes, the county that can't vote (election year 2000). I have two beautiful daughters, Bridget, 11yrs and Darby, 9yrs. They are excellent students and great athletes. Darby holds several swimming records in the state of Florida. Bridget has made the all star volleyball team. I am a pharmaceutical rep and have a cat and dog. I'm not sure if I will make it to the reunion. I told Lisa Diblasio, if she goes, I will. I was sorry I didn't make it to the 20th reunion. Hopefully, I will see everyone in October.

Hi folks,
I am still living in Southern California. I work in Redondo Beach for Northrop Grumman Corp. I am not married and don’t have any kids. I have a pretty decent house and a couple of really sweet pets. I spend most Saturdays on my road bike on/around the PV peninsula, which offers some great hills and stunning views of the Pacific. Also share a house in Big Bear Lake (LA’s local mountains), so can get the occasional reminder why I left the snow. Probably won’t make the reunion, but you never know. For the record, my cell is 310.749.7768

Really good website - it's so much fun to read the guest book and see what everyone's been up to! Can't believe it's 25 years and some are grandparents!? No way! Around my house there are Heely's, skateboards, bikes, and always lots of kids - not always all mine. Bill and I live in Palmyra and have 5 kids - Sarah 17, Rebekah 13, Jason 11, Thomas 8, and Andrew 5. I homeschool Sarah, Rebekah and Andrew. Jason and Thomas go to a Christian school in Lebanon.

I am living on the south side of Hershey with a 17 year old daughter, who is a senior at Hershey this year and a 13 year old son. I work for the PA Air National Guard at HIA for the last 25 years.

Kudos on the awesome website. How about that Todd Ladda. I see Kim every once in a while at the "Plaza" but never Todd. Can't wait. Married a Lower Dauphin dude and have two boys 13 & 10, Dylan and Dallas. There are various types of balls in any corner of my house. About 8 of us are going to get botox at the Hotel on the Saturday of the reunion. Jen Bitner, Linda Everest, Kim Lechleitner, Lori Wolfersberger, Alice Rossi, and how about this one, Kim Brontsema.

I'm still in Hershey. I work for a labor union as their I.T. person. I should be a grandma by the reunion. Karen is soon 23 and Ashley is 20.
Christy says she's going to get botox but that seems a little drastic, and I really hate needles! Hmmmm ..... is it possible to lose a pound a day until the reunion?????
