A Very Important Announcement.
Please read.
It is with a very heavy and hurting heart that I, Your Webmaster, Darlene Kotrba Christians, Jan.'65, must step down from my duties until further notice. I put my whole body and soul into this website. I luved working on it late at nite. That's when my creative juices seemed to flow. Why would I leave, You say? The answer to that question is below.
I lost my awesome hubby, Stephen Christians, Sat. April 9th, 2022. at 7:15am with me by his side. He passed peacefully at home in his sleep after a very long struggle with many illnesses. I was his caregiver 24/7. He had been on oxygen for over 6 yrs. Many of you know him as Steve. He worked tirelessly at most of our events, working the registration table and dong whatever he could to help, so I could enjoy the events. He allowed me to start the Reunion committee in 2009, go on to spend months, days, hours, minutes and seconds designing this website and maintaining it. It breaks my heart that he is gone. He was Papa to 11 Grandchildren and 3 Great GrandChildren. He was Gone TOO Soon.
I hopefully will be back sometime in the future. I have to work on me now. I have many health issues that need addressing since I put my health on hold to take care of my hubby. I need some well deserved R&R.
I am handing over the website to my Co-Webbie, Ed Mahony, June '66 and the maintentance to his Crew, William Trow June'65, Joyce Iasillo Gipson, June'65 and Mary Lou Lynch Vacca,Jan.'67.
I want to thank all oF my Admins, and espcially my Co-Webbie for all the years of hard,sometime thankless volunteer work on this site
I want to thank all the donors for their generous donations that help keep this website up and running.
I want to thank all volunteers from my Reunion Committee who worked tirelessly trying to pull off the 2010 Reunionin in one year. There was only 5 of us when we started in the Summer of 2009, we grew to 23 people after the reunion.
THIS ISN'T A GOODBYE! I PROMISE, I WILL BE BACK! GO TIGERS!
