This has nothing to do with the original question, but I have to share something funny that happened:
We always get a book abut the classmates, usually info provided by a form that we filled out a few months earlier. It listed one guy as being deceased, and well, that's kind of sad. But then another guy spoke up, "Hey, he's not dead, I just talked to him last week! So we're all sitting around and he said, "I'm just going to call him right now" He lives in Arizona or CA or somewhere out west, and we all had to change our books, he was alive! They even passed the phone around to a lot of people who wanted to say Hi.
That will certainly be the highlight of that reunion
We too mourned the loss of "Frank", and remembered how great he was...found out about a month after the reunion that he wasn't dead, and wondered why he hadn't been invited to the reunion! (In our defense, someone with his identical "odd" name had passed)! Hopefully we don't make that mistake again!!
