Central High School Class of '60 Thanks to Kermit (Ike) Isascson for the '60 Maroon & White. |
October, 2001 It is now one year and three months past our 40th Reunion, held July 7-8, 2000. At that time, life was good, we were content, happy to see each other again, and certain that we would do it again in another ten years. Since then, we have lost a few more of our classmates, the most noted being one of the seven victims of Sioux City's worst mass murder ever. We were in shock. And then, less than two weeks later, our whole comfort zone tumbled, along with the towers in New York City! As we are reaching, or approaching, the age of 60, we have cause to be more reflective upon the blissful days of our youth. Although born in the era of a world war, we are too young to remember it. Korea is a vague recollection, and the Vietnam experience of our young adulthood has been something everyone has tried to forget. Desert Storm was over almost as soon as it began, but we are too much in touch with reality to even hope that the coming confrontation with the Arab world will be so easy. We pray to our creator (by whatever name we choose to call him) that our nation will remain strong, that he will help us protect our interests in this strange new world where we find ourselves, that Good will prevail over Evil, and that we, the children of WWII, will not live to experience a World War Three. After all, our grandchildren will now be the ones to face the enemies of the Free World, and we wish so much more for them -- the same peace and happiness that we have known in our lives. And, we just might want to be around in 2010 to celebrate a Fiftieth Reunion ..........

Could you please advertise our non-reunion on the CHS web site?
