THOMAS SWANSON

Thomas Swanson lives in Portsmouth, VA with his wife Kari. They have three children: Kelsey is 33, Abby is 31 and Lindsay is 27. They also have three grandchildren.

Tom is retired........(JEALOUS). And how has he been spending all this free time? "Focusing on family and friends, I do some occasional consulting for business, run, spend time with the grand children."

Favorite memory? In this case I think it was "Biggest Memory"......"I skipped school one Friday, the next Monday in the morning announcements I was called to report to Sister Serafagus? office. I knew it was probably about Friday. I had to meet here at admissions, she was very small and frail so how bad could it be?? Well lets just say I was chipping ice and doing after school for two weeks. To this day her lecture and scolding is probably the worst I've ever had."

AH HAHAHA I love this!

And I love knowing that we will see you in July.

PATTY HOAG

Patty Kellogg Hoag is living in Waukesha, WI and has two sons, 25 year old twins Matt and Chris. She has just retired - LUCKY !!

what has she been doing all these years? "Good question...I'll think about it and get back to you "

How about some memories? "I've nothing but wonderful memories, seriously...EVEN when I was in trouble, (like getting reamed out daily by Sr. Seraphica for the worst record of tardiness in the history of EHS...even though I lived a block and a half away &&& getting caught toilet papering the trees outside the girl's bathroom on 3rd floor...by leaning out the bathroom windows &&& getting "asked to leave" various classes whenever I was unsuccessful in stifling my uncontrollable laughter...in fact bursting my eardrum when plugging my nose in World History class thanks to Mary Kammer, Bill Manion and Terry Skolaski, etc. etc). I truly adored my years at EHS, wouldn't have changed a thing and send kudos out to the Sinsinawa Dominicans who educated, nurtured, entertained &&& disciplined me for four awesome years! "

Thank you ! we should all have your memory......maybe you could have a table at the reunion and tell the rest of us what we did in highschool. Honestly, you're amazing. See you in July.

ANN SAXER

Ann Chickering Saxer is loving life in Largo, Florida. She works for a small family owned food service distributor. She has two sons: Erik 32 and Adam 31 and two grandchildren.

What has she been doing besides working on her tan ? "I was married for 25 years to Tom and then I got divorced and moved to Florida where my parents and my oldest brother lived. Since I moved here I have lost both of my parents (they both made it to 90!) and my brother Jim who was in the class of '67 has also passed away. I have two sons and two grandchildren. My younger son is married and has two kids - Brandon, 9 and Jadamarie, 7. My older son is with the USDA and is in Colorado at this time but he would like to get back to the Midwest.

I thoroughly enjoy the warm weather here in Florida and have no intention of moving back to the frozen north."


And you gotta love these memories !

"Betty Zeier and I skipped school one day our senior year and she called herself in (as you may remember her parents were both deaf). So I decided to call myself in and say that I was my mom - well, Sister Seraphica didn't believe me and she called my mom and told her I was not in school so when I got home that afternoon my mom had her sorority club at our house but she was looking daggers at me so I knew I had been caught!

Also, the wonderful homemade lunches we used to get in the cafeteria.

Another great memory is the group of us that hung around together used to take turns dressing up to look pregnant in order to go into liquor stores to buy beer. Whoever was the 'prego' that night always bought 6 / 6 packs of Schlitz Malt! Yikes, those were the days."

(I remember those shenanigans ....Bunbury was the BEST )
