Pauline, I’m sorry that I missed you at the reunion.  I could only attend parts of each event as I was also taking care of my mother, who passed away 3 weeks later.  HTT was a wonderful experience for me as it had us work together with students in other grades and with wonderful teachers.  Barbara Sheinkopf only taught that one year, as the next year she and her husband adopted a baby.  She did return to teaching later and still lives in Pasadena.  Here is her information:

Yes, you or anyone can get a memory book. Send a check for $22.00 to P.H.S. class of 1968 and mail it to 2212 Paseo Court , Las Vegas NV 89117-2758. The book cost $20.00 and the $2.00 is for the cost of mailing. Let me know that you want a memory book (claywerts@yahoo.com) and after receiving your check we will get one to you. Please include a name and address alone with your check.

The cost of a memory book will now be $ 24.00 per book. The cost of sending a book was greater than I estimated. If you are interested in a memory book let me know at "claywerts@yahoo.com". If you would like one you will need to send a check to P.H.S. Class of 1968 and include your name and address and mail it to 2212 Paseo Court, Las Vegas NV 89117-2758. You sould start seeing the memory books arriving this week. 

Joe Silver (Silver)

Clay , I am assuming that you want a $4.00 Check if we have already paid $20.00?

Clay Werts

NO Joe !!    The $24.00 charge is for people that had not ordered and paid for the memory book in advance. If you ordered the memory book when you registered than you are all set and do NOT need to do anything. shipping and handling was included in the $20.00 charge. New orders are not and thus the extra $4.00. 

Modie (Martin) Katz

To All,

We all know that things are getting more expensive these days as well as postage.

But if you are concerned about the price of the Memory Book being $24,000, don't fret.  It was a typo. Have a Great long weekend for those of us still working and for those of you retired, Enjoy.

Joe Silver (Silver)

Sorry Clay, I'm not to bright , it didn't seem clear to me

I received my Reunion Book today.  It's very nice.  I am not sure I paid for it though.  Is there a way to check if I paid?

Douglas Bray

Just received the Memory Book. I want to thank everyone on the Committee who helped put it together. Great job. 

Loretta Packard (Luskin)

I too received my memory book and agree with Doug. Thank you to each of you who worked so hard to organize the photos and put itall  together. It captures what a happy time the reunion was!

Frances Pampeyan

I agree.  It's a great memory of such a wonderful reunion.  Thanks so much for putting this together.

Anne Hassell (Nelson)

You are all so welcome! I loved helping to put the book together. It is a wonderful representation of a great group of people. Thank you all so much for the welcome I received from you all. I had so much fun, and your pics turned out super. If any of you have not yet received your book, give it two more weeks - snail mail!!

Charles Cockerill

Thanks to all who made this 50th Reunion possible from Charlie Cockerill and Kathy (Gleim) Cockerill. One word decribes the Reunion and Memory Book - Spectacular!

Rita Vitale (Weir)

Hello Everyone, I received my memory book yesterday and I really enjoyed looking at all the wonderful pictures.  Thanks to all that were envolved in organizing the reunion and putting together the memory book.  It took a lot of hard work and many, many hours and I for one greatly appreciated it. Look forward to the next reunion! 

Pauline Potts (Yonts)

Gary, please forgive my long delay in responding.  I was thrilled to get your prompt response with Mrs. Barbara Sheinkopf’s address.  I just hope I’ll get a chance to write her before too long now! 

I was so sorry to hear about your mother’s passing, and so soon after the reunion.  Sorry I didn’t get a chance to meet her.  How wonderful that you were able to care for her.  Neither of my parents even made it to 80. 

A major reason I’m so late in responding to you or anyone right now is that we’ve had an ongoing family tragedy this summer.  My husband’s niece, like you, wanted to care for her elderly parents (my husband’s sister and brother-in-law) who were both needing a caregiver at this point in their lives.  She (the niece) and her husband successfully moved her mom from Eastern Washington to Central Texas (several hours north of us), and then left her mom at home with older children and a friend of the family while they went back to get her dad and more of their belongings.  But on July 4^th there was a terrible accident en route in Idaho, killing her dad and leaving my husband’s niece and her husband in critical condition.  They are still not recovered enough to travel without medical transport, and, of course, the insurance won’t cover that.  We didn’t even learn about the accident for a week; niece Laura had been the family communicator.  (I’m not even on Facebook myself; hadn’t realized how important that can be in this day and age!)  Anyway, we took off work and drove up to see Michel’s now widowed sister in Texas and check out her living arrangement, etc.  But by early August it was all too much for her, and she was hospitalized herself.  Again, we weren’t informed until much later; we had been frantically trying to get responses from anyone.  Once we found out, we drove up to visit my husband’s sister in the hospital, etc.  She passed away August 29^th.  Her daughter (my husband’s niece) is still on a trach tube up in Idaho with the family still trying to raise funds (on GoFundMe) for medical transport to get to the VA hospital in Texas where they would be closer to family and friends.  This is so terrible for everyone, the way one accident can destroy or disrupt so many lives!  It reminds us to cherish every moment we have with our loved ones, and we’ve seen how important it is to have a living will, medical directives, etc.  Any praying friends out there, please keep our family in prayer!  Thanks for reading all this.

Clay Werts

Many of you have now received your P.H.S. 50th reunion memory book. It is very well done and will be enjoyed for many years to come. Thanks again to Anne who spearheaded the memory book organizing. We ordered additional books for anyone that had not ordered a book. The extras are now gone. If you did not ordered a memory book and would like one you will need to contact : Reunion Photographers (Dane) at 6211 Raindrop Place, Rancho Cucamonga CA. 91739. 714-265-3638. Email is www.reunionphotographers.net. We do not have any more memory books so you will have to contact them directly. 

Richard Pennington

Yes, I did finally received my 50th Reunion memory book and it was very well professionally organized and presented.  It will be a great keepsake on my behalf for years to come.

Judy Cox (Gottfeld)

Pauline, I’m so sorry to hear about your family tragedy. That is so much to process and deal with all at one time. Thinking of you with love. Can you post the link to the go-fund-me page? Praying for everyone involved.

Love,

Judy

Kenneth (Ken) Marschall

I look forward to getting my Memory Book.  Sounds like it's quite a collectible!  Since many have posted that they've received theirs, and Clay says they're all gone now, and I'm not too far flung (SoCal)... should I be worried?
 

Anne Hassell (Nelson)

I certainly hope everyone receives their memory book soon. I feel so bad that many of you are worried about not getting your book yet. Please feel free to call Dane Christian 714 265 3637 or email him at danec@ flash.net. He will be happy to help you. Thank you for your wonderful comments about the book. Instead of sending you all a CD of the pictures taken Friday and Saturday nights, Clay and Modie invested extra money making sure we had all the pictures in the book. Big hurah to them!

Pauline Potts (Yonts)

Yes, I have now received my memory book here in rural Texas, too, and have just had a chance to look through it!  Thank you to all the members of the committee who worked so hard on this!  I was especially thrilled to see the professional photographer's "spur-of-the-moment group photos" in it (although I wish the casual group photos from Saturday night I submitted had been included as well).  L'Shanah Tovah to all those in the "Jewish Fellowship Group" photo (and those who missed out on being in it, as well).  Happy New Year 5779!
