Thanks to Ina Adams-Tyler, and Paul Barre, who spearheaded the event, they wish to thank each and every one that turned out for the spectacular celebration, yes all 77 of us.
Each of us made a “Red Carpet” entrance, what a beautiful sight that was. Because of your participation and the outstanding planning, and execution by the committee, it will truly be memorable.
Kudos to Billye Rose Cazenave, and “PO” - Bill Patterson for the magnificent job that was done by them emceeing the dinner, and dance. All were captivated by the beautiful songs sung by Eva Pearson-Fields and John Hines. Lucille Barber-Adams-Johnson, and James Ellis shared some special moments with us in reference to their professions.
The commemoration of the classmates was presented by Annie-Alexander-Wilson, Pauline Bateman-Novak, Donna Daniels-Jennings and Robert Hoskins.
The dinner of prime rib, and breast of chicken with cream sauce was, very, very tasty, and tender enough to slice with a fork. Desert was Mrs. T’s Peach Cobbler and Peach Cristo nuts, served with whipped cream.
