Class Prophecy

First Speakers: Linda Spicer and Sharon Curtis. (I think the setting was supposed to be a 20 or 25th year reunion.)

Linda: It was a wonderful flight, wasn't it Sharon?

Sharon: Yes, especially seeing some of our old friends on the plane, I didn't know Darrell Allen had become a pilot.

Linda: Or Laurie Keeney a hostess. Mary Moshier got on at Hawaii, didn't she?

Sharon: Yes, and Barb Kloack and Kathi Amley at Florida (wow! what kind of flight is this Hawaii to Florida to ...?)

Linda: There's Linda Guisinger, She wrote that she'd come to meet us here. She's still waiting for Jerry to come home from the service you know.

Sharon: Yes, Someone also said that Chester Anderson is his captain. The road seems blocked ahead. Russ Ratkiewicz, the State Policeman, has someone stopped.

Linda: It's Skip Allen and crew, Tim Rogers, and Mike Hall in his Toyota Jeep. They must have been driving like Mike thought he was going to a fire.

Sharon: Wasn't it nice of Larry Phillips to invite us to his great metropolis?

Linda: And to think it started out as a two-house subdivision Dalt Acres. He's reserved the entire hotel for us, by the way.

Sharon: Oh, look. The cornerstone says it was built by Pat Sullivan and Rick Perry the two most studious draftsmen of the senior class.

Linda: There seems to be a lot of commotion across the street. It's in front of City Hall. Let's go see what's happening.

Sharon: Who's that in the beret? Why it's Jim Stump, with Ken Strauss, and Chris Kelley leading a protest march for a senior skip day. Those old soldiers just never faded away.

Linda: Let's go find our room. This lobby certainly is large. They've even got paintings by the world famous Don York and Siliva Solari.

Sharon: There's a siren, come on let's go.

Linda: Someone said it was Chuck Sprang. He collapsed trying to run all the way here from California, Guess he's out of shape after running in the 1972 Olympics. Follow that ambulance.

nurses.
