Place: Our 70th B-day Party! Comments: Don & I have been indisposed for about 8-10 days due to the flu (him) and a viral infection (me). Today we finally feel like we're getting close to being normal again, although Don's cough lingers. OK 66ers - - y'all ask for a party and it has been finalized, so get your registrations sent in and let's start making plans to have a great fun party with lots of time to visit with each other. Sept. 22, 2018 at the Holiday Inn on Hwy 75 in Richardson! Go to our Events pg to get all the details and download the registration form. No invitations will be mailed - - You must go to the Events pg to get the registration form. I received the 1st form yesterday in the mail!! Anyone wanna guess who it belongs to?? ![[biggrin]](https://cdn.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/biggrin.gif "Big Grin - :D") Pass the info along to those not on FB or GB. They can call me to get signed up!
Place: Otegon Comments: Jack, I just read about your Mother. I am so sorry for your loss, I know it is a very difficult time for you and your family. It's been 30 years since I lost my Mother but her memory lives strong within me. I truly hope you remember the great times and are grateful for them. I know I am. I will be thinking of you and your family Jack. My best to you at this time and always.
Place: Richardson Comments: Sorry for taking so long to get back to you regarding the SNAFU on the room reservations. Don has been sick a week with the flu and 5 days after that I came down with a viral infection, test was negative on me for flu. It's been a rough 7-8 days but hope by Sunday to be better and able to at least stay up all day! I got an email telling me the room situation is fixed and you are free to make reservations by calling the 800 # or the local #. Everything on the Events pg is correct, so feel free to register and make reservations if you need a room. My voice isn't very good but at least I can type. Stay well & away from sick people!
Place: Allen, TX Comments: Jack Hawkins, I am so sorry to hear about your mom's passing. Losing a parent is never easy. My father-in-law passed away much like your mom. He fell and broke some ribs, which punctured his lung. Just know that you have a family of schoolmates who are here for you. I pray for comfort for you and your family. Your mom must have been a fine lady to raise a good man like you. Ronney McKee
Place: 66erville Comments: FYI Mother's service is Friday Feb 2 at Eastgate Funeral Home, Garland TX. Visitation 9-10 am Service at 10:00 am. Followed by internment at Sparkman/Hillcrest on Northwest Highway, west of northpark
Place: Kerrville Comments: I am so sorry to hear about Jack's Mom. This is one of those times I hate living so far away. I know how he feels - it has been a year in February since Mom died and it still seems like yesterday at times. Miss her a lot. We will keep Jacks family in our prayers.
Place: Richmond, TX Comments: Jack's Mom was like a second mother to me. I talked to Jack yesterday and I think he is still a little shaken by it. I remember fondly the kindness that Mrs. Hawkins always showed me (and I am sure several others). I especially remember the times during junior high when I was walking to school and she would stop and offer me a ride especially whenever it was raining or cold. Also, I have very many fond memories of going over the the Hawkins' house and being treated as one of the family. She will be missed by all who knew her. The prayers of all the Tillery clan are sent up for Jack and Glynda during this sad time.
Place: Calif. Comments: Well, that's just a terrible story about Jack's mom. Jack, so sorry for you at this time.
Place: Richardson Comments: Glynda Hawkins, Jack's wife, just called and Jack's Mom passed away yesterday. She fell in her room late Monday night and broke 5 ribs which were puncturing her lungs. Unfortunately, she passed away Tue, 1-30. Arrangements are pending, will let you know when they are confirmed. Jack & Glynda, I am so sorry for your loss. I know it's heartbreaking to lose your Mom. Don & I will pray for God to give you strength and peace to fill your heart.
Place: Richardson Comments: Regarding the issue with room requests for our 70th B-day Party - - - As luck would have it, our Banquet Mgr is off today! They don't always work 8-5 and in exchange for evenings or weekends they get a weekday off. Jenny is off today, Monday 1-29! I left her VM & Em so hopefully we'll get it fixed tomorrow. I'll let you know as soon as the rooms are available! sorry!
Place: Richardson Comments: Good idea Jack. Let me get the room reservations fixed first. Hopefully by tomorrow afternoon. Be sure people reading the Classmates info knows that replying to your invite does not get them registered for the Party. Everyone must register & pay the $20 to attend. If anyone on Classmates has difficulty in knowing how to access our page or downloading the form, give them my pho # and ask them to call me. I'll do it over the pho.
Place: 66erville Comments: SNL, let me know when you want me to post the birthday party info on Classmates. Party, Party, Party!!!
Place: Richardson Comments: No Carol, you didn't jump the gun. I will contact the Manager, probably have to wait until Monday, to make sure she gets it set up. It should be there! Yes, I put the info on the Events pg. and set up a link to get the registration form. Wait until Monday afternoon and I will make sure the rooms will be available. Seems with every hotel this is always a problem when we first try to get reservations. Hope lots of you will read the Events pg and start signing up.
Place: KC, MO Comments: Hi, everyone! Just FYI - I called the hotel to make my room reservation for the party. The reservation clerk told me to call back in a couple of weeks, as she couldn't make a reservation until they have "blocked out" the rooms for our group. Guess that I jumped the gun a little because I'm so looking forward to seeing everyone. Love you all - stay warm! - Carol
Place: Love & 70th B-day Party! Comments: In 2 and a half weeks it will be Valentine's Day. Now that I've put the thought of Love into your head, let's start thinking about a Celebration of Life! Hope you've marked your calendar for Sept. 22, 2018!! That's the date for our 70th Birthday Party. I'm working on the Registration form right now. Will link it to the Events pg. so you can download and print it. There won't be any invitations mailed out . . . you'll need to go to the Events pg. for all info and the form. If you know someone who doesn't have Internet Access, please pass the info along to them. Ask them to call me and I'll take their registration over the phone.
