For our 70th Graduation Reunion

April 23, 2025 — Post #6

Your Reunion Committee has begun working on our Septuagennial reunion event and has selected a date for the celebration. Please mark your calendars to save that date for joining with classmates for an afternoon of catching up and to avoid planning any other conflicting activities.


A Memorial List Update

February 5, 2025 — Post #5

We have learned of another classmate passing since our last post (now a total of eight since the May 6, 2023 reunion event); the most recent addition occurring in late 2024. Use the Memorial Page link found in the header or footer on this page to see the list.


Some Website Changes

January 7, 2025 — Post #4

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We created a new pair of pages in this website for the 80th Birthday Celebration that took place in 2019, replacing the page that was presented via Ced Bennett’s website for that event and updating the link under “Other Useful Links” (in the column on the right-hand side of this page).

Our website statistics indicate that not much visitor traffic occurs on the information covering those older events. So instead of putting in the extensive work of converting the other three event reports from 2017, 2014, and 2012 pages, we’ve just connected those links to the original pages on Ced’s site.


Another Memorial List Update

January 5, 2025 — Post #3

We have received additional sad information about four classmates passing since our last post (now a total of seven); two more in 2023, one in 2024, and one most recently in 2025. Use the Memorial Page link found in the header or footer on this page to see the list.

Our sincere thanks to those who provided this important information to us.


Memorial List Updated

November 22, 2023 — Post #2

We have received additional information about three classmates passing, two in the current year (2023) and the other in a previous year (2020). Use the Memorial Page link found in the header or footer on this page to see the list.

Our sincere thanks to those who provided this important information to us.


Announcing our new Class of 1957 website

July 30, 2023 — Post #1

This is the first news post introducing our brand new GWHS Classmates (Classes of F’56, S’57, F’57) website, dedicated to information about classmates, class events, and other news of interest. It replaces the event reporting information pages squeezed into Ced Bennett’s photography website (those pages will remain until they are migrated over into this new Class of 1957 site dedicated to our classes).

This site is currently still under construction. However, it is finally starting to take shape enough that it can be released to make what is already finished, available to you. We hope you will appreciate and enjoy what has been accomplished.

Aside from the information available on this home page of the site, we’ve also completed a Memorial page that will stay as up-to-date as we can make it, based upon the information we obtain about classmates who have passed. It has already been updated beyond the previous presentation / publication initially made available at the May 6, 2023 reunion event.
