Lost Friends Luncheon #57 - 13 Feb 2006

Would you look at this turnout!

Now this is like old home week!

Starting up at the head table with Tash, there's Mike Crye, Marvin Howard, George Huling, Carol Avenna, Ted McCabe, Lynne Saunders, Mac Eaves, Betty McCabe, Diane Dercks, and the back of John Volkman's head!

Up here at the ''head table'' starting at bottom left, Dennis Kaplan, Ron Seymour, Tashima, Mike Crye, Marvin Howard, George Huling, John Volkman, Don McFaddin, and John Plant. Carol Avenna and Ted McCabe at far right.

The ''head'' table

Don McFaddin

And just in from running back and forth to Alaska he says, is Don McFaddin. Sure good to see him after all these years. When I first came to work in January of 1967, there was no place to put me so I was stuffed into an office with Don and Claude McCrory. Some how we both survived, although I'm sure Don scared a few years off me when he set off that air horn behind me at Gibson's one lunch hour!

This is the first time Don's graced us with his presence, and I hope it's just the first of many.

 

Teddy McCabe paid us a visit along with Betty while they were visiting in the area. They say the Hurricane Katrina damage is still a mess down where they live.

Here's Teddy Bear!

Ron Seymour, Don McFaddin, George Huling and Mac Eaves

By the time most folks had to leave, we were still trying to catch up on all the happenings. Here Ron Seymour, Don McFaddin, George Huling, and Mac Eaves are still at it.

Lost Friends Luncheon #58 - 13 Mar 2006

In March we were happy to have a good turnout of old friends.

CW around the table from lower left: Marv Howard, Mike Crye, Dennis Kaplan, Joe Strickland, Doug Dreggors, Bob Everett, Dorothy McGrath, George Huling, Frances Bradford, John Volkman, Janice Murray, waitress Marilyn, Diane Dercks, Lynne Saunders, and Tashima.

Tash told us this would probably be his last luncheon as they're moving back to Hawaii to be closer to aging parents. We're sure going to miss seeing him.

A good turnout!

L-R: George Huling, Frances Bradford, John Volkman, and Janice Murray.

It's been a long time since we saw Janice. If she looks like she's giving thanks, it's probably true. She told me she was glad to be back to working in IT in the Metroplex after a long spell working working alone for a church over in Quinland.

 

I'm still trying to figure out that look on Frances' face: disbelieving? adoring? skeptical? Looks like I should have spent more time over here to hear what John was saying!

Over in the NW corner, the folks that seemed to hide in all the other pictures!

From Left: Doug Dreggors, Bob Everett, Dorothy McGrath, George Huling, and Frances Bradford.

 

Another view of most of the room, CW from bottom: Mike Crye, Dennis Kaplan, Joe Strickland, Doug Dreggors, Bob Everett, Dorothy McGrath, George Huling, Frances Bradford, John Volkman, Janice Murray, Diane Dercks, Lynne Saunders, and Tashima
