Everyone was happy to see each other, we were beyond what type of job do you have as to what kind of money you were making. Only saw one person with a cane, we talked about senior life styles, grandchildren and do you remembers. I had started a monthly email newsletter several years before. Then I requested a photo from each one who was on email. When I received them I made a house for each person with their high school photo in the left window and the new one in the right window. I put a group photo, picture of the high school, tacked on school and other little things here and there on the quilt. Took it with me to the reunion and everyone love it. We turned it over and they all wrote notes on the back. It was a big hit. When the 55th reunion came up I sent it up so they could enjoy it again and more wrote on it.
