I want to thank all of you organizers for putting this reunion together. I'm sorry I couldn't attend, but has to be in IN mid July and could not turn around a come back in Aug. But, because of the reunion it has put me in touch with some lost friends. I have enjoyed reading the blogs and look forward to staying in touch. Thanks again.
Hey You Mighty Huskies!They (Kellar y Gentry) put a message board on here for all the class of 73 to keep in touch. I broke the ice and made the first entry (BLOG?)...who will be the next brave soul and put a few thought down for all to see?

What a wonderful time all weekend. Friday night was a blast, drinking, laughing, visiting, singing, dancing, just like old times. Saturday decorating was a good time and the trip down memory lane at the high school was great. The reunion Saturday night at the Grotto was the best ever. I came into Haworth in January of 1970 so I didn't go to middle school here and I was a really quiet kid in school. If you spoke to me I would withdraw into myself. Time changes things, it was so nice to connect with everyone finally.
Had such a good time Friday at Scotty's laughing and danciing, and on Saturday at the school, seeing the changes, & going thru the tunnels.... Dinner was great fun, I wasn't ready for the weekend to be over. I loved seeing old friends and all the hugs and laughter. Thanks to everyone who helped put this together, you guys did a great job!!!
The reunion was great! Many thanks to everyone that worked hard to put this together. Is was very nice to see and talk with each of you at the reunion. It is also very nice to have this platform to continue to correspond with each of you. Sorry thaat many of you could not attend, but maybe next time. Keep in touch, be safe and have a happy life! See you at the next one!
What a great weekend !!!! Great fun and company getting to "remeet" old school friends and remembering good times !!! Also getting to walk the halls (even got to go down into "the tunnels" !!!) of our dear old school ....even if it did go to "the cats"!!!!! The best part was spending the weekend with my dear friends Susan Beatty and Virginia Root !!!! Gods' best to all !!!!
Just had to take a moment to thank everyone who had a hand in making our 35th reunion such a success. A lot of hard work and planning went into ensuring we had a great weekend, and it is much appreciated. It was amazing fun to see so many familiar faces and rekindle old friendships. I'm still reeling from all of the hugs, laughter and friendly jibes and am already looking forward to the next one!
A lot of familiar names here. Hopefully my wife Jule and I will be able to make it. Currently live in Kokomo with my beautiful wife Julie, and 3 kids.
Hello everyone!"35 Years" no way. Well hope to have some fun. I will not be able to attend the dinner, but will be there afterwards. From the pictures I have seen I would not recognise anyone. LOL! Just kidding. Will be at Scotty's Friday night and the open house Saturday afternoon. Hope to see everone then too.Cyndi
Hi to all,Thanks for keeping me in touch with the Haworth class of '73 since I moved to Fort Wayne my junior year. The website is wonderful!I continue to live in Littleton, CO (30 years in Colorado) and work at Coronado Elementary School as the instructional coach. My oldest son, Zach, graduated from college this spring and is working in the business world. My other son, Kaleb, is still in college. My husband, Garth, is the business teacher at Columbine High School and an online instructor with University of Phoenix. Hope all of you have a marvelous time this weekend! I'd love to hear from you!
Looking forward to seeing everybody! Can you guys believe it has been 35 years? We are now officially OLD Farts I think. I like it! See you all on Friday! You guys did a GREAT job on this webb site.
WOW! Great job on the website and many thanks to all that have planned this! Looking forward to seeing everyone and hope to see a good turnout. See you there!
I hope Smeltzer, Kellar, and Zilligan make it on Friday. The neighborhood has changed!
As everyone else has already said - great web site.... I will not be able to attend the reunion as I already have a previous conflict with another type of reunion in Chicago for the same weekend. I know everyone that attends will have a blast.I am living in Troy, MI and still work for GM at the Ren Cen in Detroit in Information Security. In September I will have 31 years. I am still single but have traveled many exciting places over the yearsI have lots of memories of my Senior year at Haworth and of all of you.Sheilla
Thanks for all the work you've put into the website and keeping the reunions going. I hope to be there and renew old friendships again.
Just a quick thanks to the Kellar's and Gentry’s for doing such a great job on getting the information out to all the classmates of 73, a lot of memories will always be with us all! Lets all send Jimmy Noland a big Hello! Or at least a phone call what do you think?
... Greeting to you all! For the past 35 years I've been wide awake in a dream. My life continues to be characterized as a wild rollercoaster ride in Life's grand amusement park. After many many somewhat memorable days in those hallowed halls of Haworth and thanks to lots of student loans along with several grants , I attended classes at five different colleges. During the winter of 89' as a full time student at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, I was once again placed on academic probation . Soon afterward I gave up on any ideas of graduating with a diploma, deciding instead to forego higher education and dropped out for the last time. For my continued existence I floundered as a gamefully unemployed hippie unable to hold a job. In 99' I was hired as a solid waste operator at the transfer station in Lancaster , New Hampshire . I've worked there for nine long years and look forward to retirement. I have a dog, a wonderful wife, and a phone if you decide to call (802) 892-5941. For the few classmates I still stay in contact with you will always remain close to my heart and omnipresent in my thoughts. The class of 73' legacy will forever hold a distinctive place in history to be proud of. We will always be remembered as the first Huskies to go through all four years at Haworth High. Congratulations,we have arrived and will always remain bold as love.....
Great Website. Thanks to all who have worked on the reunion. Wish I could make it. Already had plane tickets for July 19-27 . We will be in Kokomo much of that week. Living in Del Rio, TX on the border. Married an Air Force Pilot and this is where we ended up. I would be glad to help with the next one from afar. Cathy, Renee, Becky where are you?
I can not believe that we are all that old! 35 years sure passed fast. Those were the days, huh! I am still single and raising lots of crap. Sorry I cannot attend the reunion but it sounds like lots of fun! Enjoy Everyone!!
You guys did a great job on this! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone in a few weeks. Hoping to make both days, but at least Friday night - see you there! Marianne
I think it will be loads of fun!! Looking forward to it. I love to test my memory. Be sure and come if you can always more fun the more that can make it.
Wow, this website is awesome. You guys did a great job...what fun!!! I would love to hear from any of you...not sure I will remember who you are, but I can always get out the dusty old yearbook and figure it out...MAYBE. Not sure if I am going to make it to the reunion...Rick and I may be in Chicago. But you never know I may pop in.Love to all,Barb
I love this web page! Thanks to all of you that put it together. What a wonderful way to communicate with everyone! I can't wait to see more pictures and remember the great times we all had together. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone! It sure doesn't feel like 35 years...
A quick story to share about someone on the "where are you" list...In 1975, I was a US Marine standing on a pier in Cannes, in the south of France...like thousands of other Marines and Sailors stationed on ships in the US Mediterranean...waiting for shuttle boats to return is to our ships after shore liberty...a guy and myself back into one another accidentally...I turned around in mutual shock and surprise, to find "sailor" Tom Lowdermilk standing there. It was a class reunion in and of itself...I know he found his way back to the states...but now we will see if he can find his way to this reunion...Its truly quite a small world...
NOT THAT MANY REMEMBER ME, BUT I HAVE BEEN AWAY FROM KOKOMO FOR SO LONG THAT I HAVE LOST TRACK OF EVERYONE. I HAVE BEEN IN CALIFORNIA SINCE 1979. MY TWO SISTERS STILL RESIDE IN KOKOMO AND SOME OF YOU KNOW THEM, PATTY AND MARY. I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO HEAR FROM SHARON TAKEDA AND ANN GOODSPEED. IF YOU ARE OUT THERE, WRITE ME. I AM GOING TO BE IN KOKOMO THE WEEK BEFORE THE REUNION. I WILL BE AT MY MOM AND DAD'S FROM JULY 23 TO THE 30TH. MY CELL NUMBER IS 909-289-8847. HOPE THE REUNION IS GREAT FOR ALL WHO GET TO GO.
Hi everyone,I am not able to make it to the reunion as planned. I will be thinking of all of you on that weekend. If there is a program available with class info I would be willing to purchase a copy. I have not heard from any of you for a very long time. I am wondering about Lynn, Leslie, Sandy, Barb, Joni, Pam to name just a few. If anyone has info on them please let me know. I was shocked and sad to see so many classmates that had passed away since our 25th. The very best to all of you.
Hello Everyone! Certainly, time has flown by. I look forward to seeing you all! Having not been able to attend past re-unions, I am excited to attend this one. (Reminds me of the movie "Peggy Sue Got Married."!) Jane Schroeder, Virginia Root, and I will once again be walking Haworth hallways! I hope everyone will come! Steve Lawless, and Richard Lewis--make sure you and my husband David (Hamilton) O'Banion. won't be having too much fun! We am coming from Oak Ridge, TN, - and are excited to re-live some great times with everyone! Go Huskies!
Heading out on vacation early on August 2 soI will not be able to attend the bash on Sat.. But hope to be at the gathering at Scotties Friday nght. I have really fond memories of my daysat Haworth. I too will never really think of our place as Kokomo High School.
I don't think I will be able to make it to the reunion. I hope you all have a great time!!!
Hello fellow Huskies ! I'm surprised and somewhat ashamed of myself, I'm sitting here with my Grandson at 1:00 am while he is reading all about Shih tzus to me and I'm gabbing to you. I was curious and wanted to look all of you up. I'm so glad that I did. Going threw the list on the guest book and reading all the names I had forgotten. ( yes, I said it) made me realize how much I want to bring back the old memories. And: by the way my grandson is visting from Kentucky so it's ok if he stays up all night if he wants to before he leaves tommrow to go back. Tears my heart out. Excelent job to all who put this together. KOODLES TO YOU 11. I'll see everyone at the reunion. SincerelyTheresa Hiatt

This is a great web page
Alternate email mmcclain@san.rr.comI'd like to be on the mailing list for future. Will have to see if I can make this one. Last one I heard of was passed along about 10 years ago, or was it 15 ;-) but couldn't make that one. It would be interesting to see how things have changed.
