Joe Wilson, '81, says:  "Hey fellow Crimsons! 

Just wanted to ask everyone to continue to support our football team.  We've had a pretty good year so far.  (A few plays from being a great year!)  I know our team is putting out a great effort and our coaches are doing their best as well.  As a former player myself, I know how it feels to get really close to achieving the goals that you set as a team, and then only to have them slip through your fingers.  Our team has closed the gap between us and the elite teams in the county (St. X, Male, & Trinity). We're playing with them now and I know it won't be long before we're beating them on a regular basis!  So let's continue to support our team and staff and show'em what Manual football is all about!  Win or lose, we're Crimsons for life!  Also a special shout out to anyone from the class of 81 and to anyone else who knows me!  I would like to hear from some long, lost friends!"  Joe Wilson, Class of 81

I just wonder how many grads are still in the business & how many, like me, bailed out & got other majors & jobs. Life as a former musician & restauranteur was great - life as a soccer mom is greater! Maybe I'll come to a 15-yr reunion... " Dee York Keller '80

Steve Thomas, '61, writes: "Want to say hello to any grads of 61. If any one knows Lois or Jewel Gardner give them a big hug from me. Couldn't take cold weather any more, moved to Port Charlotte Fl. Worked at a field station on San Salvador Bahamas for several years, tough work."

Ed and Loretta Brown, '76, write in:  "Where are the class of 76 -- did you drop off the face of the earth? Looking for Sharon Boo-Boo Hoagaland ,Robert Evanow, there are too many friends to list.  Why didn't we have a 25-year reunion... some of us would liked to have had one.  We are not getting any younger-- please, people, put the petty indifference aside that our class had and let's get together.  I know we were in the middle of the busing era but it is time to put that in the past where it belongs.  I do not know about you all but I miss the good old days and my friends."

A Note to Bill Shain:  Bill: I recently received an acknowledgment from Manual for my last contribution.  Your name was at the bottom along with the year you graduated.  I graduated in 1951, so apparently we over lapped one year.  I remember a couple of people from your class.  One was Janet Bates and another was Malcolm Roessler.  I dated Janet a couple of times and I remember Malcolm played basketball.  If my memory is correct, they married soon after they graduated from Manual.  Seeing your name and the year you graduated reminded me of some good times I had at "Dear Old Manual."  Because I spent my first two years at the "Old Manual" at Brook and Oak, I really feel a closer attachment there than to the "New" Manual at 2nd and Lee.  So to cover my bases, I belong to both alumni associations.  Hope you, Mike and the Alumni Association are doing well.   Charlie Davis, Class of 1951

R. Kent TeVault, '59, shares some thoughts:  "Greetings, old friends.  We must be getting old, because I seem to remember you better than I remember what I had for lunch yesterday.  It occurs to me that it is about time for a 45th anniversary reunion. I enjoyed the 35th so much that I find myself looking for an excuse to travel back to Louisville. I retired from Lucent Technologies a few years ago when they began imploding, and then discovered I didn't like being retired. I did some consulting, then ended up as the corporate quality engineer for Panduit Corporation, a manufacturer of wiring and communication products. Most of our facilities are scattered around Chicago's south suburbs, with some in Georgia near Atlanta and overseas in NL, Singapore, Shanghai and Costa Rica.  I live with my wife of 26 years in Chicago's western suburbs, where we are somewhat involved in traditional music. (Translation: we have a sizeable collection of folk instruments, none of which we play very well. At last count we had a hammer dulcimer, an Appalachian dulcimer, a Celtic harp, bagpipes, several flutes, innumerable tin whistles, a couple of bodhrans, two guitars, a fiddle, an Autoharp and a didgeridoo. That's A LOT of strings to tune!)  We have one daughter and three grandchildren (18, 17 and 1!) who live in SE Arizona.  I am in touch periodically with Eric Krieger in New Mexico and Sherry Penn in Florida, both '59, and Stan Bringer, '58, out on the Left Coast. I would welcome hearing from any of you, and I would especially like to hear from Sylvia (Thrasher) Richards, '59, whom I last saw at the reunion in 1994".  rktevault@aol.com

Elizabeth Wong Chan, '59, writes in:  "The retirement lunch from San Francisco USSS is 011404 - now I am free to travel! Class of 1959 reunion - Let me know when and where - I'll be there! Returned to US from 7 years in Hong Kong in 1999 to settle in CA close to sister, MaryK Wong Lim (Class of 1957)and brother ED Wong (Class of 1952). We get together with our spouses, kids & g-kids every holiday! In June we gather in Colorado for a Wong family reunion/celebrate Ed'70th -then off to Indiana for a summer wedding. Would love to hear from friends at elizjoe@msn.com.

Bob Murrell, 1934, has a challenge to the older grads:  "Hi to all the Manual people: In scanning the latest, I found no one that was from an early class, so I thought it was time for an old timer to have his say.  My Name is Colonel Bob Murrell Class of '34. I have just recently changed to Verizon.net. So any of you may have my E-address in your book, please change it from Divinf80@aol.com to Divinf801@verizon.net   I try to keep in touch but don't do a very good job of it.  Hats off to all.  Col. Murrell

Paul Christopher Arnett, 1986, says:  "It has finally hit me!! I think that by now we are all Grown!! A beloved instructor that I had the pleasure of knowing has passed. Ms. D. Donsky was always a fair instructor of the German Language to me, I studied DEUTSCH there for 4 years and have lived in the BRD{Bundesrepublik von  Deutschland}since August of 1987. I only wish I could thank her for that. At one time I was the class president of the class of 1986. I take great pride in that my fellow students at one time chose me to represent them. I also thought  that my views always encompassed the better good of the school (the walkout of 1984 was organized under my auspices with the blessing of many other "informal" student associations}. ,,,,,I ended up a lost solitary being  on a lonely college campus. I had a couple of classes which interested me then I chose to serve my country in Feb of 1987. Please talk to your counselor.. I enlisted in the Army and have been here for almost 17 years

Nancy (Harris) Beeson, '75, writes:   "Would love to hear from classmates graduated from 1973-1975."

Hi Everybody, C\0 1995... I just thought I would drop a few lines to let my classmates know what I'm up to lately. I'm still in Louisville. Have been working for Hilliard Lyons the past 3 years. I remember my time at Manual fondly. I still keep in touch with a few of my buds from the old days. Including Erica Chesser, Kevin Holmes, Angie Liebert. But most others have stepped off the radar. I'm looking forward to a ten year reunion.

Members of Class of the class of 1995.  Wow!  Has time flown.  I just wanted to send a message to say hello and wish everyone well.  I have seen a few of you around town but words have not been spoken.  I hope all is well.  I am currently assigned to Eglin AFB FL.  I have been in the Air Force for 5 years now and plan to make this military thing a career.  I often think of things like Red/White Week,  those moments of coming to school with one side of my face painted red and the other white.  What a blast!  No other school on the planet had spirit like we do.  No other class had/has spirit like we did.  Do you remember how many times we got the spirit stick?   I miss the good times.  Mrs. Rademacker (sp?) oh my!   Anyway...if you do remember me it would be great to hear how everyone is doing.  Bobby Kleir says hello!  You can email me at sothrnfemm@hotmail.com.  Go Manual!

After all this time I still can't stand even the mention of that school!  Glad to see the barrel returned home last year. Even a State Championship can't compare to winning that game. I hope the football team can do it
again. I am 34 years old, I've played football around the world with the base teams and a semi pro team in Florida. To this day those games are still the ones I remember the most. Unfortuately, I did'nt get to see the barrel come home.

Dear dupont Manual friends,

 

My name is Daniella Libio da Silva, I was an exchange student from Brazil at Manual in 1996 / 97.

I ´ve been surfing in the net and found your site. I got so touched because I had had the best time of my life there.  I think that my friends have already graduated. But I would like to say hello to the ones that are there know.   I have never had the opportunity to thank Dupont Manual High School for giving the opportunity that I had to study there. Besides that I was a ballet dancer at YPAS. I have so great memories of my classes. Mrs. Mud, Mrs. Asward, They were so important people to me. I would like to thank all of you again for the wonderful time that I had had there with you. If it´s possible I would like to receive news from you.  Sending all my love,

Daniella Libio da Silva

I graduated from Manual in 1971 and have helped organize reunions for the past 25 years. There are several classmates that we have been unable to locate and I am asking for help finding them. Anyone with information on David Herring, Rocco Greco, and  Leland Bernard, Please contact me at Pmarsili@msn.co

Thanks!  Pamela Bolin Marsiliusen

Sheila and I will be coming to Louisville in late June for a Campbell Family reunion. The school will probably be closed, so we won't be able to walk the halls.  After graduation in 1951, we married in 1954, I received a Civil Engineering degree in 1956 from Speed Scientific School (U of L), we moved to Baltimore in 1956 where I worked for The Glenn L. Martin Co. for
two years in thier static test department.  In October 1958 I began working for The Whiting-Turner Contracting Company in Baltimore.  In January 1999, after 40-plus years, I retired at age 65-years.  In that time, we spent a year in Atlanta, GA and 13-years in Memphis, TN, and the balance of time has been spent in the Baltimore Area.
    My major emphasis has been in project management, but including all aspects of general contracting, quality control, etc.  (See www.Whiting-Turner.com)  My greatest thrill has been passing on to the new engineers what I was taught over the 40-years.  Sheila and I have three sons: A, B and C:  Andy is married and lives with his wife, Stephanie and two teenage sons, north of Memphis in Atoka, TN.  Byron is married and lives with his wife, Carol and two daughters (twelve and three), east of Nashville in Lebanon, TN. Chris is married and lives with his wife DeAnn in Joppatowne, near us innortheast Baltimore. Chris is completing five years with Whiting-Turner this year.
    Sheila has taught Bible in the private school sector, designing the curricula herself.  She has worked for the church as Director of Christian Education.  She has been a bank teller, a quality control inspector at Reynolds Metals, and she has organized a Community Bible Study group in
Baltimore.  She teaches Sunday School; been doing that most of our married life.  I continue to sing in the church choir and to be involved in churchwork, too. I really didn't mean to rattle on so much.  Feel free to toss all of this letter or to pass on any small tid bits after you've edited it.

I've got alot of catching up to do as I haven't seen anyone from my class in quite some time!  I know they're out there somewhere.  Thanks for your time and keep up the great work on the website.  I love it!

I received my first Manual alumni newsletter today.  This is great!   Unfortunately due to bad address info I missed the first nine issues.  As a 1982 graduate I have been reminded of many wonderful Manual memories. I was very involved in Manual and it's many traditions, and have great devotion to those memories.  As I have read each article I am not sure which one to comment upon first.  As a former Miss Manual, cheerleader, student council president, etc, my history with Manual brings me many positive and rich memories.  I have so many stories surrounding the Male/Manual football games, The last T-day game was played my Junior year. My Husband, Tommy Hall `82 and I are a proud "Crimson couple."  We can't wait to share our Manual memories with our two children, Taylor (five), and Janelle (9 months).  I am currently Director of Internet Development for Baptist Healthcare System. Tommy is a Product Manager for E&H Electric.  Tommy attended Murray State University, and I graduated with a B.A. & M.A. from the University of Louisville and Webster University respectively.  We have been married for ten years and have two wonderful children.  I have lot's of pictures and other memorabilia, and many great stories to tell.  One of the best is when Male students stole our band's banner right before the Male/Manual game 1981 and my fellow cheerleading team members and myself had to fight to near death to get it back.  Wow, what a story.  To top it all off, this all happened on game night (yes night, the first non-T-day game was October 31, Halloween night). I could go on and on...Also, Congratulations to Preston Gray for his induction to the Hall of Fame. My husband and I knew Preston well when we were at Manual, he is a wonderful guy!   Tommy's favorite teacher by far was Ms. Stewart.  He has raved over the
years how wonderful of a math teacher she is, and how much he gained from her.  I am kind of partial to Mr. Bullock.  He acted out history events in a way that made them entertaining as well as educational.  THANKS to both! Thanks for a great newsletter and a wonderful web-site!  I look forward to the opportunity to tell many great stories about Manual in the future.    Patricia (Pickerell) Best, Class of 1984
