Don't You Forget About Me

A big thanks to Robb Melancon who recently emailed this to us.











It is so great seeing all these old pictures. I hope everyone is enjoying the nostalgia as much as I am.


Recently I was doing some “spring cleaning” in the house and came across a box that I have had in storage for… well almost 20 years now. As I started looking through it I came across some pictures and letters from high school. A lot of the pictures were from different school dances and functions and many of the letters were old “love letters”.


I also started reading through all the signatures in the old yearbooks. As I read through them, it really brought back so many memories. . The one thing that I kept reading over and over again were the words “I’ll never forget you”. It made me start thinking, at the time we wrote those words we probably didn’t realize how true that statement was. That no matter what happened to us for the rest of our lives, there are certain people and memories that will stay with us forever.

Regardless of how the relationships with your highschool sweethearts, friends or even teachers ended, and even if those relationships are still alive today, you can never forget the memories of your high school years.







At least I can’t. So to all the classmates to whom I have not spoken with in 20 years and to those with whom I’ve spoken to recently, I can say in all honesty that even if we never speak or see each other again, “I will never forget you.”











Hope to see everyone in June

Staying in the States! UPDATED

When we first made contact with Leigh Ann, she told us that she thought she would be moving to Brazil in February and not be able to attend the reunion. We have since learned that she will not be moving and will be with us in June and we are so glad. It took a lot of searching to find her, but persistance paid off. Here are a few pictures she sent to us of her family. Doesn't she have a great looking family?


I cannot believe the blog space of our class. I am SOOOOO impressed!!! Ya'll are doing a wonderful job. I hate I missed the Homecoming reunion. It was awesome to see everybody. It brought back a lot of precious memories that seem like were just yesterday.

Steve (my husband) and I have been married for 13 years and we currently live in Mobile, AL We have two precious boys. Tyler is 9 and Hunter will be 4 in a few weeks. I love being a mom which is a huge gift from the Lord, and also a huge responsibiliy. Tyler plays every sport known to man and likes only P.E at school. My youngest has literally grown up at the ball fields, and already knows how to play Playstation games. It is amazing how fast they grow.



I am a stay home mom, (who never is at home) and I realize how blessed I am to be at home with my children. I actually have my masters in secondary education - Math, but that is on hold until my children are older. I loved teaching high school. (I can still remember sitting in Mrs. Seale's math class.) It is so rewarding when you are allowed to make a difference in a student's life. I have taught every level of math from Algebra I to Calculus at a private Christian Academy, and in the public school system here in Mobile. I guess I am true math geek.

There are still classmates that we cannot locate. If you run into anyone, please tell them about the blog as they may not know it exists.

Keep sending your updates in. We will continue to post up until the reunion.

See you soon.

Definately Been Blessed

I have been living in Gulf Shores for the past two years. My job at Southern Homes moved me here. I have been in Real Estate for the last 10 years. I actually sold Julie Richardson and her husband a home.




I uploaded some pics of myself and my two boys, Dylan is 14 and Chase is 10. They are really great kids, I have definately been blessed with them.
















My vacation is planned for the reunion date, so I won't be able to make it, but I have enjoyed all of the pictures of everyone. Everyone looks great.
Take Care,
Sandra Douglas
