My husband, Les Manzer - Decatur High class of '54 - retired two years ago, and we now make our permanent home on St.Simons Island. I am quite impressed with the work that was done on our Class of 1958 website..... someone deserves accolades!

I received the sad news over the weekend from Wayne Pickens, a younger brother of Juanita Pickens, that Juanita had died about 6 years ago. As with all our deceased classmates, we should reserve a place in our memories for Juanita. Happy Holidays to eve yone and we'll see you at the Decatur get together on January 6, 2001 at the Decatur Holiday Inn.

After spending most of my life out West (CO, CA, AZ, SD), I am now in colorful downtown NJ. Despite all its bad PR, the place is gorgeous and I haven't met one mafia don yet (that I know of). My 2 boys and 2 girls are spread out all over - KS, KY, MD and AZ. They are all very well socialized and successful (where did I go wrong?), and are contributing to world overpopulation by adding a total of eight - so far - more people. For those of you who remember me, "Hello", and for everybody else, hello to you too. I WAS there, no matter how reluctantly.

Light stroke last August, recovering nicely, even back on the links, still shooting terrible golf, but what has changed? Tried to enter this a few minutes ago but think I goofed. If this is repeated, guess I goofed

Fabulous fun--thanks for making this available. But, help! I can't read the nametags and have no idea who's who in the group picture. Great looking bunch of folks, though, and a few faces spark a memory or two. Happy Thanksgiving to all. Jean & Bill

Harrell Wall's condition is still about the same. I talked with is wife, Peggy, today and she said he was about the same. Please continue to remember Harrell & Peggy in your prayers. They have moved and the new address is: 5254 Hwy 212, Covington, GA 3 016, Phone - 678-342-0464. I am sure Harrell would love to hear from his HS classmates. Why not send him a card. His mind is still sharp!

It is great to see that classmates from 1958 can stay connected. I am a graduate from the class of 1972 and would love to connect with friends the past. I remember going to DHS as a little girl and thinking how fun it was going to be when I got to go to DHS. I went to Oakhurst Elementary in 1st and 2nd grade and then on to Westchester. Does anyone remember the fire at DHS? My father and I watched from across the street. Exciting stuff. What caused that fire? Anyway, DHS memories are the best.

News--some good; some bad. On a happy note, Carol (Wooten) Wheeler completed her lifelong dream and graduated from Agnes Scott this past May with a degree in psychology. What determination! In June, my family and I attended the wedding of Molly Hodges' daughter. Molly's daughter and my son were students at Tucker High together...small world. On the sadder side, Diane (Honeycutt) McAfee is fighting a strong battle with cancer and has been since last fall. (3020 Windfield Circle, Tucker, GA 30084). Ne ther Dr. Renfroe (now 90) nor his wife are in very good shape. She is suffering from liver cancer and has just begun treatments. Doctors give her one year with treatment or six months without. Besides being troubled with his wife's illness, Dr. Renfroe is having some severe back problems which may be the result of prostate cancer...but that is speculation and not officially diagnosed. (393 Glenn Circle, Decatur, GA 30030). Please keep them all in your thoughts and prayers.

My wife, Kathryn Merline Searcy Ross, and I will be celebrating our 39th wedding anniversary August 26, 2000. We have 3 sons and 4 grandchildren. On a sad note, I understand Jim Middleton was killed in a car crash a few years after 1958 in Florida.

Greetings Class of '58, on Independence Day! This continues to be a shining example of a class web site! Congrats to Ben & all who helped. I came along five years behind you in the class of '63. You might remember my older sister Carolyn, who was ahead of you. As far as I know, the closest we have to a web site is THIS. I'd like to invite you to THE WALL, a new virtual meeting place for those interested in DHS wherever they are in space and age. You can go there simple by clicking HERE.

Hi. I was in the Class of '63. You may also remember my sister Lois in the class ahead of me, or even my much older sister Carolyn, who was in a class a few years ahead of you. (She passed away two years ago.) Great site! I've linked to it from a new site I just started at http://indecatur.yearbookhigh.com/index.html It's main focus is 1963 and the five years before and after '63, which includes '58. I was sorry to see the names on the In Memoriam page, some of which I recognized. Keep up the good work!

I am sorry to report that Betty Burnett Smith died on the 22 or 23rd. She suffered cardiac arrest after triple bypass surgery. Patsy Harris Snell called me, and said that sometime last August, she found that she had bone cancer. She seemed fine at the reunion. It is so sad, and our prayers should go out to John. The funeral is Saturday the 27th of November at Karl Mowell Funeral Home, 200 Robinson Road, Peachtree City. Visitation Friday, the 26th from 6-8. We will miss Betty; she was a loyal classma e and a wonderful person and friend. John, we love you!

Welcome aboard to Nancy Burdick Fischer and plaudits to Walter Winn for his astute detective work in finding "the missing". Is everyone ready for the NEW MILLENNEUM? Can you write "2" followed by three zeroes on your first check of the year? Better practi e! Anyway, its all very exciting!

I work at the Medical College of GA in the dept. of Ophthalmology. I am divorced, with two sons and we have been in Augusta for 10 years. I had no idea I was missing from the class listing. I would love to attend the 1-1-2000 get together, however the hospital is afraid serious problems might arise at midnight, because of the Y2K fear. No one is allowed to be off the week-end of the new millinium. I will have to wait until Jan 3 to drink m champagne and 2001 to see you. I would love to hear from any of you.

Many of you are aware that Harrell Wall is in poor health. He was diagnosed with Parkenson Disease about six years ago. He has since been diagnosed with MSA(Multiple System Atrophy) He is confined to bed, unable to speak, swallow, or turn himself in b d. His wife feeds him through a tube feeding shunt. I visited him a couple of weeks ago and he is still responsive. He can answer yes or no with a hand signal and point to certain words. If you would like to send him a card or note his address is: 4021 Elmcourt Drive, Stone Mountain, GA 30083. Phone 404-501-9026. His wife's name is Peggy and they both need our prayers because he requires 24 hour care .

I am very happy to report that one of our missing classmates has been located. Woody White is living in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. I am E-Mailing the information to Ben and asking him to include it in our class roster information. As a matter of information the way that I located Woody was by doing an E-Mail search for anyone with the name "Clark Woody White". The search turned up 7 hits. I then E-Mailed each one with information about Woody. Much to my delight, about a week later, I received an E-Mail r ply from the right Woody. See ya!!
