Event Announcement!

REUNION 2023 WAS A GREAT SUCCESS

TWIN OAKS COUNTRY CLUB SPARKLED AND SHINED  

THE 2023 CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1962 GET TOGETHER
Saturday, October 28, 2023 was a huge success!!
We had a lunch buffet for a final cost of $20.00 per person
at Twin Oaks Country Club.
We had 48 attend and everyone concluded that this should be an
every year adventure!
Sooooo, put the idea on your calendar for next year 2024 probably
in October, on a Saturday, at noon. Voncille, Tammy, and Pat will
be working on plans and try to get a date to you more in the middle
of the summer to allow for better planning.

EVERYTHING was very nice and so many enjoyed the time together.

Today's Featured Biography

 

 
Linda Stracke Samuel


My husband and I are both retired, and we have lived in the same home for over 46 years. We will soon be celebrating our 49th Anniversary in December. We have 3 beautiful children and 5 adorable grandchildren. The oldest grandchild (Chelsea) has just begun her first music teaching job in Conway, MO. Her brother, Ethan, is attending college at Pittsburg State. He is planning on becoming a debate teacher when he graduates. We have many teachers in our family! The younger grandchildren are 12, 11, and 8 years old. They keep our lives busy, and we think that they are the light of our lives.
My husband and I enjoy spending our time with our family.
We brought our car that belonged to Nellie Hofer for all to enjoy. It was purchased in 1964. It was her first car! It had 32,000 miles on it and had never left Springfield when we bought it. The license plate says "Nele64."
