MISSION BAY HIGH SCHOOL

Well, this is the last "What's Going On? of the year. This will be remembered as the 50th anniversary of our graduation from high school. We had a wonderful reunion five day event, and I would like to have talked to everyone there.
I hope 2008 has been a good year for all of you , and that 2009 is even better. It feels so strange even writing those dates. Remember when the year 2000 was science fiction time- way in the future. The movie 2001, A Space Odyssey seemed so far out. I haven't heard that we have found that monolith yet. I do sometimes think I am working with Hal, the computer, though.
I hope you all have a Merry Christmas, and if you celebrate something else, let that be merry too. We look forward to seeing you in 2009.

Next breakfast January 3, 2009 9 AM 5955 Balboa (at Mt. Alifan/Mt Abernathy)

We had a nice size group here for our last Breakfast of the year. We were lucky to have Santa join us though he had spent a long evening on Friday in Balboa Park at the Spreckles Organ Pavilion hauling little (and big ) kids onto his lap.
Bill Swank announced that Bill Lansville was "absent" because he was getting ready to be Santa Claus in Barstow, CA. Imagine, we have two Santas in our class! How great is that!?
The sad news was that Pam and Wayne Lollis and Linda Moreno were attending the funeral of classmate, Janette Kolodge Mendez who had died on Nov. 30.
Ray Hacecky let us know that his wife, Joan (Fredericks, class of '56) was recovering well from knee surgery. We were all glad to hear that.

Those attending this morning were:
Class of 1956: David Castle; LuAnn Easterly Giegler & Don Giegler ( IL '54); Raymond A. Hacecky;
Class of 1958: Orpha Higley, Judi Michael Shacklett & John; Marie Gilmour Davila & Robert (TX'55); Bill Swank & Jeri Lynne Swank ('66); Sheila Mura; Pat DeFore Barr; Larry Beyersdorf & Kimberly;
