Brodhead Tigers:Class of 1967
This page is dedicated to the Brodhead Alumni and the class of 67 which I graduated from Brodhead High School. We all really enjoyed our reunion. As we left this event, I noted to my wife that we really were a very good group of young people and still were. When I graduated in 1967, I really didn't know if I could ever succeed in life. What I had learned in School and at home proved me very wrong. For all those wonderuful people who influenced us most, we are eternally grateful. Favorite gradeschool teacher was Mildred Randolph, favorite high school teachers were Barbara Owens, Albert Albright, Cathy Cheatum, and my beloved counselor Jean Gentry. God bless her for giving a poor child the chance to succeed. Teachers are without a doubt the most important influence outside the home we have.

Reunion
of 2007 |
Wow, after 40 years, I was a
little bit tranquil tonight. There was 29 of us who came from all
around the country. A group that accomplished alot in their
lifetimes. Hard workers, who gave life their best. I was
excited to join the past and look at the future of the class of
1967. We were about making a difference in our world and worked
hard to get ur done. As you get older, you realize what impact
you may have had on life. Tonight, I realized that the class of
1967 stayed the course of Get UrDone. To my classmates, I'm proud
to have been in class with you and proud of what you accomplished. |
