Saturday Evening's Greeting and Opening Comments from John Jay Schwartz:

Welcome to the 60th Reunion of the TJ Class of 1965! Wow, great to have all of you here so please have a good time reuniting with your classmates this weekend.

Would your 60th Reunion Committee please come up here! Welcome to your Committee of classmates that made this happen! Let’s give them a big applause! 

Charles Douglass, my partner in everything our committee does, is providing all the information you receive throughout the year! Give him a big applause!  He makes me sound good if that’s possible! 

Reunion committee-Janie Huske Satterfield, Ned Hood, Wayne Blake, Donald Hill, Horace Lecky, Sandy Kerr, Myra “Bunny” Daleng

Allow me to make a note about one important committee member who is not with us.  For every reunion over the last 20 years our classmate Betty Cox Thompson along with Janie Huske Satterfield right here, led the effort to make all our reunions successful.  We lost Betty this past year, but I think she would be happy with our planning and performance! 

Along with all the other classmates that have passed, please note the video showing all the classmates who we have lost; let’s share a moment of silence in all their memories. Silence counts to 10!

The other video shows many moments from the 20th reunion and beyond; this weekend will be added and on the TJ website soon.  Classmate & professional photographer John Henley is roaming around taking pictures too.

Also, I want to thank those who contributed to making this reunion affordable for all; this weekend would not be possible without those donations and support   LET’S HAVE A BIG APPLAUSE AND THANK YOU!   

Before we start our dinner let me ask Donald Hill to give a blessing!

Enjoy your evening and those coming to the brunch we will see you then and be prepared for your “Good and Welfare” comments. 

Let’s Eat!
