Are You Here?

Of course you are, or you would not see this note.

We would like to see if anyone is actually 'out there' listening. It is a lot of expense and effort to maintain this website, so if you would be so kind as to drop Ken a simple e-mail to tell him you read this website, it would really help us out. Just tell us:

Your name ____  and The town /State you now live in ____

He will list you on this website so we can tell who is still around.

If you would like other classmates to contact you, add your e-mail address.

If you are not a '59 Gridley grad or a member of that group at an earlier year, welcome, and please add the year you graduated ____

 

Also, if you know a former classmate is no longer alive but that is not noted in the Roster pages, please note their name and mo/yr they passed to bring us up to date.

                                   Thank You
 

Oh yeah... send the note to Ken.smith1@comcast.net

Hang in there Arnie.

Home For Gridley Union High School Class of '59
"Blue and Gold Rules!"

Our original goal was to get information to you regarding the Cruise that took place in April '09, the Homecoming Game  that took  place on September 18th (with the "Gathering" at the Moose Lodge following the game), and the Dinner that occurred on September 19th.  We expanded this site to include information about our past reunions, and to tell you about future plans. When you look through this website, if you see a name missing or a name that needs to be brought up to date, or a space containing something like: [? ? #4 ? ? ] and you know who the person is or where the place is or what the date may be that is missing, please send it to us. Our failing, feeble minds just cannot come up with some of the information.
 

We hope that you enjoy your visit to your website.
