This is SO not what Sky View Looked like when I went there 30 years ago! But the classmates I graduated with never looked as good as they did at our 30 year class reunion. It was a great reunion. But never the less - it meant looking at the pictures and the names on tags to identify some of them! (I'm know they had to look at mine too) I did enjoy having grown up conversations with adults - instead of high school people.

There has been many reasons to celebrate great things that have happened to friends. There were reasons to cry- with 15 classmates deceased, it was humbling. I enjoyed talking to friends that actually remembered me - and some that were a major part of my childhood long before high school. ....and there stood Lyle Archibald - oh ya - my first silly kiss - not a real one with lovey dovey stuff- just a kiss that happened in a game called 'Choo Choo' which deemed me as a dork no less. He now looks like President Monson - weird. He let me tease him - and so did his beautiful wife! I enjoyed myself and greatly appreciated the many hours it took to organize such an event. Thanks Ed Clayson, Alan Smart and Alan Funk. Alan Funk by they way - recognized the name Doxstader - my son-in-laws last name - and boy did I get the checkbook out & ready for some juicy information on Mike! Looks like we've all grown up and contributed a boat load of children to the world. Most interesting comment - Where are your children tonight? Well - they're with THEIR children, and my GRANDCHILDREN!


This is a picture of our Student Body Officers - or our Executive Council as we called it. L to R: President: Paul Spackman, VP Brent Allen, ME! Secretary, Teri Smith Historian, Dave Chambers Executive, Amy Jenkins, Executive, Andrea Larsen Executive, and Duane Weber Executive. Pretty frightening pants on Dave! I loved these guys - and I miss them terribly. Paul, Dave and I were the only ones there at the reunion. This picture is up in the hallway of Sky View - and my nieces laugh at it when they see it. Farah Fawcett hair and all - it was difficult for me to have a dress on because I was an athlete! These are the leftovers after 30 years. Paul Spackman, Myself, and David Chambers - he changed his pants for this picture! Wow - a thorn between two roses... I love these guys!
We had a social on Friday at Sky View and then a dinner at Maddox. Ashley was my date at Sky View - she was a wonderful sport and enjoyed hearing all of the stories. Everyone thought she was my 'life partner'? I had to explain that the beautiful, intelligent, tall person hanging on me, was my daughter - Jordan High Graduate, BYU Graduate and soon to be UofU Masters Graduate. Thanks Lee Lee.

See you all in 5 years. Thanks for taking me down memory lane just for a moment. (Everyone posted their pictures on the
skyview78.org website and that's where my pictures will be found from the reunion.)
