THE CLASS OF 1956
DIRECTIONS FOR CLASS BOOKLET RESPONSES
Each class member (whether or not you attend the reunion) will have one page in the class booklet. The booklet will be distributed at the reunion and mailed to those who do not attend but request a booklet. On your page, we'll post your school picture, a recent picture that you will send, and your responses to any of the suggested topics below. (This information will NOT be posted on the website.) Because getting the class booklet ready for publication will take a lot of time, I will certainly appreciate your prompt response! It will be difficult for me if everyone waits until October 1.
RECENT PICTURE
For your recent picture, we prefer a head and shoulders shot but can crop your
picture (electronically) if necessary. Send your picture via email to me at
mstarke@mindspring.com or mail a hardcopy to Mary Starke, 26 Oswichee Street,
Seale, AL 36875.
If you send me a hardcopy, you can retrieve your intact picture at the reunion
or I will mail it back to you.
RESPONSES
Please note that the topics listed below are all suggestions. If an item does
not apply to you, or if you just don't want to elaborate, leave that item blank,
and that category heading will be omitted from your page in the booklet. (For
example, on my page, I will not have headings for Military Service or Retirement
Activities!) The purpose of the list is not to be intrusive but to provide you
with ideas for what to share with your classmates. NOTE: Responses will be
edited for length if necessary.
