ALUMNI WEEK - TUES - PM UPDATE

It was great to be in the company of Wayne & Flora Wong again. Wayne is our class “Webmaster”…….. imua69.com Mahalo Wayne! Wayne is part of the Team that promotes the Slack Key Night in Maui and works together with George Kahumoku. And a Grammy Award Winner, a couple times over.

That is Roz with her back to us and the handsome gentleman in the back is non other than our Class Archive, Randy Tong. Randy has the most detailed and exquisite memory out of the whole bunch of us. The details that he remembers is astounding.

Again, I keep saying, it was the “hanging” at the dorms what was so much fun. Hearing the talking and laughters…..it was great!!

Trudy Wong Jackson, Susan Akau Naki, Vanelle Vanderford Love. Missing from photo but present. Barbara Sawyer. Barbara was the “Most Shyest” selected in our class. Someday, soon, she is going to feel comfortable and will step in to take a photo. Barbara was standing just to the side.

Hano Davidson arrived at the Luau, walked over to the section of tables with all of the “1969” signs……. He wondered where we all were. We were taking a class photo inside. He missed it. Ah shucks!!

It was great to see many others…..Stephen Wong was there early. We arrived and he was already half way into his pupu plates. Clyde Tamanaha was there early too! Great to see you Clyde. Sanford Manuia, Robert Young, Jenerl When you sit and write, hard to remember everything and everyone……. Zoller Uehara, Lynn Martinson, and others……..

Carol Desha Truman, Lani Bowman, Sheri Akiona Adams, Manu Simeona Meyers all listen and contemplate the words of Headmaster Michael Chun who spoke to our class.

Those of us who came to the 30^th Reunion (it was our very first time), this is the same dorm that we were in. If we in 2014 (Our 45^th) take heed and book early and have “numbers”, we can get this same dorm again. It’s a great dorm! Just a few minutes walk down to Konia Field and back.

Since we have been home, we have spoken to a few of you and the feeling has been the same…..we are so grateful that we made the choice to come, despite having the conflict of schedule with the Molokai High Graduation. Perhaps we will try to come a few days early next time. We want to make it in 2014. We can’t wait until then and hope that we as a class will be able to come together next summer and for our 60^th birthday year in 2011. Until the next time, aloha!
