Tolland High Gathering

Gail and I went to the Tolland High Gathering over the Labor Day weekend, here are some of the pictures. We weren't sure what to expect, but I have to say it was more fun than we had imagined. I've always enjoyed going to my RHS reunions, but this one had 5 classes so it was a unique experience talking to such a wide variety of people who spanned so many phases of our lives going back over 40 years.

Gail, Joy and Sue Kassett having a laugh. We had lots of them over the course of the night.

Patty and Pam Wells, Joy and Sue Kassett, Gail, Darlene Bielecki

Bob, Nancy Gebhardt, Patty Wells

David Mullholland and I had a few laughs about the time Mike dragged Betsy over to his house after school one day to beat him up! He swears he came out to take his beating but his mom told us to go home. I told him I recall he was cowering in his room and never came outside. We also had agood laugh about the time Betsy beat up Joyce Zarnecki at the THS school dance one night. He remembered her dresses-with-sneakers outfits too. In his words ..... she was way ahead of her time.

Darlene, George Beitner, Patty and Gail.

Phil Richardson and Nancy Gebhardt

Gail talking to Phil Richardson. We had fun talking to Phil, he had a lot of fond memories hanging out with Mike. See if you can pick out Becky and Bill Ellert. How about John Barbero.

Gail, Pam Smith and Brent Gottier. Brent and I recalled some of our glory days playing for the Cards in Tolland Little League. He remembered the time he was playing first and I was pitching, we picked Richard Charland leading off.
