Wendy's Story

2016 - best wishes to all! I sent out 9 requests last year. Sorry I've not said Hi to those who sent to me. Whats up with that??? Tho I've not visited too often, it is interesting to look for new folks, esp HOGS. Here's a wish for a better response this year. Maybe I'll join Facebook.? 1.26.2016 2015 - I went to the original LAS VEGAS HIGH SCHOOL (downtown) for the school year 1979-1980. The summer of 1980 I went to the photographer for the yearbook photo & thus I am shown/listed in the 1980-1981 as a senior but I did not have the honor of actually attending the 1980-1981 school year. (see below...) I have some pix of the few friends I had during the school year...the only name I can recall is Mark Orr. When I get my pix out of storage, I will upload some. During the summer of 1980 I went to Tonopah for a stint in the Youth Conservation Corps for June/July. When I returned to Vegas, my mother gave me a ride to Child Haven...I had been "unmanageable" the end of my junior year & had to find a new place to live. Having no options, I chose the juvenile court system. So, ... I went to the HOME OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD / ST. YVES HIGH SCHOOL in Aug. 1980 and lived there for the majority of the school year. I spent some time at the end of the school year at the separate "home" (like a group home) that was a few blocks down the road. I GRADUATED graduated in the class of 1981: senior class had total of 9 girls. I remember the prop...Expand for more
erty, esp. the chapel. I know that it no longer exists. I believe it was sold in the mid 80's to St. Judes Home in Boulder City & believe it has been since torn down. I remember Father Ed Fronske, a Franciscian priest, one of the few who came out to say daily mass for us "tenants". He also performed the graduation mass. He later became a very good friend as part of the city-wide Las Vegas Catholic Youth Ministries I got involved with - St. Viators, then Our Lady Of Las Vegas, & weekend retreats. Fr. Ed passed away a few years ago. (He visited me in my dreams after he passed. I called the family in Flagstaff to confirm.)xoxox I remember that my graduation day was very hot & that I took some pictures (they are in storage in Reno, NV). When I am able, I will upload them for everyone to look at (maybe this spring?). I fondly remember the nun that was in charge of the apt I was assigned to, Sr. Marta (we kept in touch for years). I remember some of my classmates but not so much their faces...I remember a play we put on... I remember some of the teachers (Marilyn Snyder taught the business classes) but we've not connected for a few years). I'm open to connecting, reminiscing, et.al.,...I live in Great Falls, MT. I proudly served in the US Air Force from 1987-1996. I'd appreciate any contact from any/all previous Home of the Good Shepherd/St. Yves ladies. (And any from LVHS too.) Hope to here from you! God Bless.wb 02.22.2015
