Arlinda's Story
I hope people remember me as "cool" people. I for the most part was quiet, cordial,I had my talkative moments.....regular folk! I was just basically trying to get to know "me" and everything thing else and enjoy my high school days.....just how to balance things!
I had a group of people....Darice Cooley, Willietta Davis, Cynthia Powell-Rucker,Gene Wright,Brenda Samson,Russell Brown, Alan Alston Emma Foster and Leon Williams etc I knew them all in grammar school and we were ALL in the same division 604, Mr. Wadlington and Mr. Veto! Those were some memorable times,indeed! (If I forgot someone please don't charge my heart,but my head!)

been blessed to attend all the reunions except the last one that was at the Oak Lawn Hilton. And it was great to see people that I hadn't seen in ages. We are all getting older and I do more than ever realize the importance of making these reunions. Last week I had an opportunity to go through all the year books and pictures from the reunions, and yes some obituaries and it truly was a bittersweet moment. So if anyone is out there whether I actually knew you or not and would like to say "HELLO" drop me a line or two and lets connect. Remember our year book was based on astrological signs ......I am a "VIRGO"! I may have to look you up,but no problem (just let me know your sign)!
Until then peace and hair grease! :)
