What You Said About the Reunion
 |
Julie Harris: I thoroughly enjoyed the reunion and wish I had come earlier. I agree with Lillian that the next reunion should be more casual ... I think everyone would enjoy themselves in more relaxed surroundings. And where are the Nelson photos, Sharon? 12/12/07

Jan Etter Lambert: Roy, thank you. From someone who was not there - the committee did an excellent joy of contacting classmates and the web site is great. I appreciate all your work. I even recognized a few from the photos. 12/12/07

Lillian McAfee Eaker:
Paseo '57 reunion: The whole 50th reunion was great ... Location was
perfect for me as I hadn't seen downtown KC for a long time....Time of the year
was perfect...even the much needed rain was good....Banquet was delicious and
just right for $50...Nametags, decorations, check-in at banquet, table settings,
and the T-shirts were fabulous!!! Entertainment was nice and just right... |
|
Sande Stratton Spicer: I thoroughly enjoyed everything and am looking forward to the next one. I will make sure we attend ALL the events as the one Saturday dinner was not enough time to visit! Thanks again! I love the website! |
|
Glenn Owings:
Donna & I just took the cooks' tour of all the 50th reunion photos. Thanks
to all who shot the pictures and sent them in to Roy, the Web-Master. And
thank you again for putting them altogether and posting them on your web-site.
It was fun seeing all your pretty faces. I thought the Hospitality night
and the Banquet night both came off in an excellent manner. Donna & I had a
great time, and enjoyed seeing everyone who could attend. |
|
Elaine Schlozman Chapnick: I finally have a moment to write and say thank you to you and to your committee for the splendid job you did in organizing our class reunion and motivating such a large turn-out. It was a great week-end. |
|
Lillian McAfee Eaker: It was a GREAT reunion .... the committee did exceptional work....but what should we have expected?? from the best class Paseo ever graduated??????? It was so much fun....after all, we "Remember who we are".....thanks again to all.......... |
|
Dean Moss: Just wanted to say THANKS for all your work and the results which I have seen from here, not being able to attend. I received my Tee Shirt today. The pictures from the dinner on the Paseo 57 site are really special to me. |
|
Mary Shillerston Peterson: It was a great reunion. I am still excited about it thinking about all the people I saw and the ones I didn't see and all the conversations. I hope we can do it again soon. |
PLEASE TELL US YOUR PREFERENCES?
Your enjoyment of the reunion was the primary goal of the planning committee. Your thoughts about what went well and what could be improved would be of great help to anyone who might be involved in preparations for another reunion ... if there is another reunion (some classmates told me that they thought the 50th would be our last).
