Silhouetted against the fading sunlight, two Pike graduates (John Overman and Christy Morris) pause for a brief moment of reflection of the past few years at Pike High School and what the future may hold for them. The time flies by all too quickly, as we now realize, so when we get a second chance to recreate amd reminisce, it often seems even more crucial than the first time. Pike High School was never the same without the Class of '69 -- just as it will never be the same again without the recently graduated Class of '09. So hold on to your memories, create some new ones, pretty one last time that you are pulling into the lane at Pike High School...
This is my final blog entry before flying to Indy for the 40th Reunion Party. It has been my genuine pleasure to share these precious keepsakes from the past with all who have followed this website. Who knows; if you keep sending me old photos and mementoes, maybe I can keep the website going in the future. If you missed the Reunion for some reason, make sure to return to this blog page next week, when we will begin posting photos from the party.
Bev and I are high school teachers in Melbourne, FL, where we currently live (just 20 miles south of Cape Canaveral). We have 3 grown children, all of whom graduated from Florida State University, and our youngest is in Med School at the University of Florida (Pharmacy). Now we want to know about all of you. Please email me (rmoser1@cfl.rr.com) your info and photo so I can share it with those thinking about attending the party.
