Jeff Matthews

I was watching a Randolph Scott western , on TMC , ...the bad guy ( played by Ernest Borgnine ) was called Jim Kipp ...put a whole new slant on the movie ...also ...does anyone (besides Pam & I ) recall ,that "Gidget's"   boy friend  ( Moon Doggie ) was named Jeff Matthews....

Thank you for praying for my health-I'm hanging in there, praise the Lord...I think for the 50th reunion we should have another mock graduation ceremony-then everyone can identify and greet each classmate.  I'm sorry that possibly I didn't recognize some classmates that I would have loved to talk with.

In the news of Bob Duncan's passing, I took a few minutes this morning and just went back through the photo galleries, what a fun group we are!  So many of us are smiling down on us as we remember and laugh our way through the grief.  Many of you will probably be gathering for Bob's memorial, if any mini reunions sprout from that, please share with us who can't be there.  Thanks and hugs to all!  Mary Beth

Slumber party at Colleen's house, Sept. 9, 1994, with Laurie Duane, Helen Tanaska & me) Wilhelmina and Roberta (aka Bill & Bobby) decided to crash the party  Really gonna' miss "Roberta"

We are all very grieved at the recent ending of Bob Duncan's life.  As we get older and face more difficult challenges, it would behoove us to seek the Lord for strength, endurance, and more faith.  It's incredible how many lives were and are affected by this passing of Bob...

Helen Tanaska (Morgan)

Thoughts and Prayers for Bob's family and friends at this difficult time. He was really great person to know!

Diane Klespies (Uithoven)

So sad.....Bob was one of those guys everyone liked. Most my memories were Junior High and sorry there aren't any after that .  Ever since I lost my best high school girlfriend Michelle last year.....these announcements are difficult.  Glad we stayed connected untill the day she passed. Don't waste time classmates and connect with your childhood friends sooner than later.  Glad I didn't wait.......some of the most precious memories are from recent times

Hey Group...Family and Bob would have been proud of the great turnout and respect at the funeral home Monday.. he will be missed....Thinking back at the last time I had seen Bob was not long ago on the golf course now I wish Id have given him that 3 ft putt...Pretty sure last time I had seen Lee was at the 20 year reunion did have some fun times also..JW

Dawn Weber (Wendorff)

Janet, thanks fo the great photos.

Sorry I missed this one too. Maybe next time  

It’s hard to believe it’s been 50 years. The reunion committee did an fabulous job. The reunion looks like an amazing time. Thanks for all the memories  it is unbelievable how Copley High School looks the same. 

The best to all the Class of ‘69 !  Stay healthy and Happy

Ellen Catlin

Hi Janet and all classmates!

I just looked at the photos of #50. YOU ALL ROCK!  I long to have been there. So sorry I wasn't due to a scheduling blunder on my part. I loved the Skyway photos. That was probably the most business they've seen in many years! Thanks for supporting the reunion effort and big thanks to the reuninon committee for making it happen. So many smiles still, after so many miles... carry it on sisters and brothers!  Love, Ellen Catlin.

PS: Where can I find the The "Kissing Booth" slide show from the 45th reunion at Clapper's barn? Can these be posted with the other groupings? Thx

Janet Shady (Winemiller)

Ellen -

A few days ago I got a reminder of Copley Cuisine.  I was making some home maded Spaghetti with suace like my mother used to make (she made it from scratch...I do a kind of mix of thing that come up with that old home made taste).  As I was finishing it the cooking....my wife came home with the little square waxpaper boxes of Chocolat Milk like we used to get in the lunch cafetaria.  Reminded me of that lunch perid and running to get in line to get that chocolat moo juice ..... it was the combo of the 2 that I remembered fondly .

David Slabaugh

Good memories, I drank more than my share of chocolate milk when I was in Jr High. 

Freq in those days my lunch consisted of chocolate milk, barbecue potato chips & ice cream sandwiches.  I

obviously had a very strange notion of what constituted good nutrition.  :)
 

Dianne Dockus (Just)

great memories, indeed!  My cousin Marilyn and I would set our ice cream sandwiches on the hot water pipes to soften them...Duck

Jimmy Goson

I remember when milk was 3 cents a carton, but chocolate milk was 4 cents.   It was a thrill to have the extra penny to buy the chocolate instead.   Today I have all the pennies I want, but can't drink it. I'm Lactose intolerant! Ha!

Deborah Diefendorff (Boies)

Jimmy, me too but they now have non lactose chocolate fake milk :-)  I wish I had the recipe for those peanut butter bars, they were the best!  (organic of course, lol)

Gary Diefendorff

I would put dimes in my penny loafers just in case I forgot my lunch money. It would buy me a chocolate milk and an ice cream sandwich. 

Claire Hose (Mendez)

I don't remember anything about chocolate milk, except that we made it at home with Nestles Chocolate.  I do however remember the elementary cafeteria, at Copley Elementary, and how you could come down the back stairway from the parking lot to enter.  For some reason that is a vivid memory in my somewhat muddled mind of school.   I also have a very real reoccuring dream that I do not graduate!  What???

Barbara Kuba (Stoll)

The ice cream sandwiches were the best!  I also remember saving lunch money to buy a ticket to the Friday night football game.

That's where Gary got his!

Gary Diefendorff

Jim, I sure you handed them to me after I saw you walking out of the girls locker/shower room. 

Jimmy Goson

You mean it wasn't co-ed?
