The Class of '68 met to celebrate our 75th birthday year Sunday, Aug. 24, 2025, in Tootle Park, Miltonvale, Kan. Twelve of the original 25 members of our senior class and five spouses enjoyed snacks, visiting and laughter for a very special afternoon.
Several served, and three of us have retired from the Military. Some of us are still employed! We have lost four classmates, four spouses, one child, one son-in-law and one grandchild. Our contribution to the world population is: 62 children, 115 grandchildren and 27 great-grandchildren.
Those in attendance were: standing, left to right, Charles Pacey, Miltonvale; Larry Cyr, Miltonvale; Harold Myer, Belleville; Fred Allen, Holden, MO; Randy Empson, Payette, ID; Larry Adam, Salina; KenJay Fuller, Miltonvale; & Coleen Paillet, Clay Center. Seated, left to right, Max Coleman, Miltonvale; Karen Wilson, Concordia; Vic Bulleigh, Bennington; and Sharon Lassey Meadows, Huntington Beach, CA. Spouses attending were: Nancy Pacey, Tena Myer, Jean Adam, Leon Wilson and Bob Meadows. Drop-ins were Michelle Graham, Debra Catlin, Bruce Graham, Steve Graham, Storm and Megan Myer and family. Some helped with shuttling us to the memorial fountain and taking pictures for our class. Randy Empson drove the farthest from Payette, Idaho. Fred made a delicious cheesy hamburger dip for snacking, Tena brought sweet watermelon & Jean brought some delicious brownies. We had a wonderful afternoon of snacking and reminiscing.
Our 60th Class Reunion will be in 2028.
