Whether you attended our 40th Class Reunion or not, we hope you get a kick out of the presentation we put together for the event. In addition to showing a lot of pictures from our high school days, we included pictures available to us from previous reunions. 

In advance of photos though, we had a quick trivia section that brought a few laughs.  I used the outset of that section to salute Laurinda, who has been our passionate reunion organizer for decades now. As a volunteer for this reunion, I saw how she worked relentlessly to reach out to everyone we could find.  I can tell you that while she loves planning the reunion, it is really like a second job when you consider the stress and time commitment.  Therefore, we used Senior Class President David S.'s continual reunion absences as permission to declare Laurinda as our Senior Class President in Perpetuity.  Hopefully, Dave will not take offense.  We thank him for his leadership at Ashland High and are sure he will join us in recognizing what we all know: that Laurinda has been the glue to all the reunions.  And maybe, we'll see Dave at a future reunion!

Anyway, enjoy the presentation and if you have comments of any kind, I'd love to hear them at classof83grizzlies@gmail.com.
