CLASS OF 1965 'RAT PACK' YEARLY MEETING |
|||
Some Ladies of the Rat Pack (class of ’65) spent time relaxing together in Gulf Shores, Alabama last October. They enjoyed time reminiscing and planning future trips. As the finger of fate allowed their paths to cross (many years ago), they reached out and grabbed each other and never let go. They accept each other “as is” with no apologies, or judgments. They are definitely more than friends, they are Soul Mates! (Louise’s adaption for the Rat Pack from Suzy Toronto’s More Than Friends Poem) Sally (Beebe) Wills, Millie (Blackwell) Wright, Sharon (Cain) Henley,Louise (Landsbury) Overbey,Audrey (Pilkenton) Pappas,Mary (Treadway) Roades, Linda (Waldrum) Berghold, and Sharon (Zeltmann) Chiesa. |

Every year snowbirds head south escaping from cold winters, including a lot of Alumni. These Wellstonites have been enjoying the emerald green water and sugar sand beaches of Destin for the last three years. They celebrated Valentine’s Day at the Ocean Club, a favorite local restaurant. Plans have been made to meet again next year. Left to right: JoAnn Williams '60, Pat Miner '62, Larry Turner '60 and Jerry Slatton '57. |

I cannot tell you how much I have enjoyed exploring all the info available for us to read/look at (reading Dr. Linda Tate's Blog). It has taken me back to a really fun time in my life--growing up in Wellston!! It grieves me to look at the pictures and see what has happened to our little (and BIG) town(s).
I just want to make a couple
of comments. I have no clue,
other than my imagination,
what "Steven Jones" street
is, unless maybe our old
Delaware?! What the heck is
"R.M. Morse" street?
Comments on Etzel says,
"Between Steven Jones and
Skinker"!! Again, I'm
guessing--would this be
between our old Delaware and
the Hodiamont streetcar
track? We older folks could
more readily recognize THAT
description! My uncle, Lowell Waldron, was president of Local 1104 at least one term; maybe more. When I was a little girl, there was a HUGE brown sided house to the right of the "hall" as you're facing it. Uncle Lowell bought that monster to fix up and rent out. I remember being there during the "fixing up" process, and I feel certain I was a LOT of help!! For any of my FB friends who are remotely interested, I have many photo albums, one of which is my maternal ancestors (The Waldron/Mock one) which have a couple of old news articles in it. One is dated Dec. 19, 1945, and shows my uncle, as well as others, on the picket line in front of Wagner. Another has my uncle and a few other guys looking over the (this) union hall building being constructed. It is dated Feb. 15, 1949. As long as we're taking trips down "Memory Lane," I want to take a BIG one!!
I am so thankful and
grateful to all who take
the time and make the
effort, to compile all of
the information and
pictures for posterity and
the enjoyment of others. |
