Maybe Jerome and Vickie Chandler, Dewey Jones and his sisters as well as Alan Caldwell, Ernest Anthony, Reginald Smith, Steve Hairston, Thelma Williams, Janie Williams, Carman Williams, Ben Pickott and Mozott will show up. Cecil Jefferson said he was out of town last year. Maybe Anthony Hines and Gail will show up.
I saw Billy Cox , Dawn, Jake Gwyn, Herbie Fraizer, Willie Coker, Charles"Boochie" Wade, Helene Kenedy (she was still looking good), Robin Martin, Cheryl Branden, Linda Bowman, Debra Bloom, Joyce Bigsby, Thomas Morgan, Frank Hicks, Reggie Hawkins and Rudy and Jean Perry last year.
