I was lucky to make contact with four teachers. And Peg Poniewaz made contact with a fifth, but HE didn't make it. Everyone was looking forward to seeing Teresa Koetting. After all, didn't everyone have at least three years along the way??? (If you went to DuBourg, you probably did.) She showed up with her sister, whose name I am embarrassed to say, escapes me at the moment. Teresa looked, sounded and acted like her old self. It was a treat.
Here is Mary Julius and Barb flashing back over some photos from yesteryear with Miss Koetting and her sister.
Joe Gresnick showed up from Baldwin, Kansas. Everyone was glad to see him. In fact there was a large out-of-state contingent from Kansas. Maybe four or five people. Mary Baker, Joe, Mary Weisenhorn and at least one other I can't think of at the moment.
Another photo-op. Charlie Bennett, Karen St. John, Tim Wilson, Paul Ritter and Lynn Widmann
Joe and Don Bellon...
That is Bob Winkler with his back to us and he is talking to Mike Brennan. That is Mike's wife, Bev, to the right talking to Peg.
Believe it or not- all you folks that didn't show up for the event- pictured here is Sister Alcuin from our days at St. Gabes. The lady in the pink sweater is Lynn Widmann's mom, Ann. Mr. "Doc" Widmann and Ann showed up early and left late. The were close to a lot of classmates because of their support of CYC activities and Doc was a basketball coach for a few years. One more Sister showed up, but I won't tell you who. When her picture shows up, I'll let you guess who she is.
Ok, before you scroll down, who is the lady in blue?
It is Sister Tereseen who was principal at St. Gabes in the later years of our attendance She was chatting with Paul Ritter and Mary Ulrich.
Another chat session with Mary Ulrich and her husband, Craig, Ms. Koetting, Jim St. John and Jim Eberhardt. That's Bob Winkler and Linda Moxley way in the center distance.
And here again, Sister Tereseen and Charlie. Hey Mike Yates, Sister T wanted to talk to you!!! She wants to see you in the office.
