This year we lost two of our classmates.  Bernie actually called me a couple nights before our 40th Reunion and left me a voicemail telling me how excited she was to come to the reunion.  I remember being surprised when she didn't attend.  Later, I found out that she was suffering from cancer and realized there are good days and not so good days when undergoing treatment.  Bernie passed away right at New Years.  A few of us were able to attend her service and toast a life well lived.  During her euology, her sister spoke about how much she enjoyed seeing her classmates at our reunions.  

Last Sunday 8/23/2020 we lost Mark Wend.  Our reunion committee had been searching for Mark for many years.  While planning the 40th we had received new contact information for Mark and we were excited at the chance to reach out to him.  Rich Magee posted about Mark's passing and requested prayers for Mark and I am happy to pass that request on to all of you. I haven't seen his obituary but if someone does, please send it over and I can post it.  We are happy that has Rich has now added his profile and we can keep in contact with him.

While I am writing, Ralph just emailed me that he lost his father 2 days ago. Eric also lost his father recently, please keep them in your prayers as well.  

God Bless,
