I don’t know how it was in your high school, but at the large public high school in the southern Ohio suburb where I grew up, the spring day the yearbook came out was one of the best days of the whole school year.
Very nice piece Leanne! I graduated high school in 1970, I like you I didn’t feel there was in a future in my town either. But like you, I rediscovered some really great people through the Facebook class class page. The obituaries
They really are. But I know you never forgot about your Vermont roots. In fact, I've been thinking about that maple syrup producer ever since you wrote about them!
I, too, left my high school and never looked back....at least to the geography that I came from. But I did stay in touch with several HS classmates. Sporadically, yes. Somewhat superficially, yes. But connected nonetheless. And the few HS reunions I've been to (10th, 25th?) were wonderful affairs where the angst of HS is gone and it's just a big room of happy people who kind of recognize one another. It's an experience for your bucket list, Leanne!
Thanks, Nanc -- I have been thinking that I need to be sure to make our 50th. And, of course, it was GREAT to reconnect with you last fall at NU. Maybe we can do it again? xoxo

are very sobering.

Loved this piece, as I can relate all too well! Thanks, Leanne
Cheryl, you are one of those people I remember so well, and so fondly. I'm glad we've reconnected this way later in life.
