Lunch at Woody's

Last April old friends (L to R) Bill King, Scott Hood, and Richard Leonard got together for lunch at Woody's in Ellenton, FL.  Scott and Diane are full time residents of Dunedin, FL, while Rich and Maria live in Venice, FL.  Linda and I are "Snow Birds" spending our winters in North Port, FL and the rest of the year in a beautiful part of northwest New Jersey.

There were lots of laughs, much reminiscing, and a few slightly embellished stories of our by-gone HHS days.  We talked about expanding the group next winter since there are so many classmates residing or vacationing in Florida in the winter.  Let me know if interested in joining us and perhaps having a mini HHS62 reunion in the Sunshine State next winter.

Coach William Jackson

Linda and I visited my Track and Cross Country Coach, William Jacson and his wife Donna, on our way home from Florida last spring.  The Jacksons reside in Raleigh, NC and were guests of the class at our 50th Reunion.  Many of you had Bill as your Biology teacher.  It was a wonderful visit with a coach and teacher who had great impact on many of our lives.

Stephen Juenger Fund

I have the honor and pleasure of serving on the Stephen M. Juenger Memorial Fund Committee. The Fund was established over 20 years ago in recognition of Mr. Juenger's service, dedication and devotion to the students of Haverford High School for 55 years!. Over these 20 years the Fund has awarded over $240,000 in scholarships to many remarkable Haverford High School graduating seniors.

You can help and give back to the High School that helped to make you the success you are today by contributing to:

Also located in the lobby is the HHS Hall of Fame.  It is worth a trip to the High School just to see the Hall of Fame!  L to R in photo::  Bernie Schaffer '62, Al Kaemmerlen '58 and Captain of 1958 State Championship Team, Tom Juenger '62, Joann Patterson, retired HHS Athletic Director and a founding member of the Fund, Luke Dougherty, current Head Football Coach, Greg Ducina,current Athletic Director, and yours truly,Bill King '62.

Apologies

As an additional note, I apologize for little activity on the website of late.  Us "Octogenarians" just keep ourselves too busy.  Also, I am in all the pictures above.  This website is not about me, but for our class.  So if you are tired of seeing me, please send pictures, news, etc. of your lives to me at:  wnking@ptd.net, and we can make the site far more interesting!
