NHS 1965 News

Most people will do just about anything to keep from going outside on piercing cold nights as was the case on January 19th. It went down to about -12. But, hey there was a surprise 60th birthday party for Dick and Linda Stowe Fink. I bundled up, kept the seat warmers on max and went to the party. Linda and Jim Grisim, Dan and Cheryl Nesseth, and Gary and Kristi Pasek were there also. A good time was had by all. We looked back … and talked about the sixties. We looked forward … and talked about the sixties, retirement and travel. Dick and Linda had traveled to Alaska in September. Linda was sick for a lot of the trip but they still saw a lot and had a great time. Dick says that if he had gone there when he was 22 he never would have come back. Linda is doing better now, but continues to battle fibromyalgia. Dick’s birthday was December 2nd and Linda’s was November 24. Dick was the youngest in our class. What a great couple! Happy birthday to good friends! Posted by Pat Nelson

Because of other committments, some of the 1965 grads were not able to attend the birthday party. A few weeks later a few of us gathered for lunch. Mary Jo McKenzie was in town, so Kristi Foss Pasek set up a lunch date. Some faces that many have not seen for awhile showed up. Linda Stowe Fink, Linda Hubers Kasparek, and Sherry Behrens. Mary Auge’s daughter Alison was married in Portland the day of the birthday party so she came to lunch with lots of pictures of the wedding. Debbie Freeman happened to be out for lunch with her brother so she joined us for pictures. I took a few pictures and wanted to share them with the class on our new blog.  Posted by Pat Nelson
