A triumph! The high even west through a Sunday morning extension as I hopped around tables and enjoyed 3 groups, each from a different MHS era. Thanks for the event (FS).

 I wanted to thank you for all the work you and your husband put into The Mane Event.
 
 I hope you now can relax and enjoy a job well done. . . And Done (’67)
 
 You guys did an amazing job and I just wanted to congratulate you on a job very well done! I am sure you will be getting a lot of these KUDOS from MHS grads who are just as appreciative as Mike and myself are for all your hours and hours and hours of hard work in putting this fantastic night together for us. What a huge show of faculty there was. Again, thank you for a very memorable evening. (’68 & ’70)
 
 I had a great time! Enjoyed visiting with old friends and acting like I was in High School again. I would be ready again next year if my schedule permits. I think this would rank close to the top on the priority list. (’70)
 
 

     

 To All, What a great evening. Again, it was great seeing all of you and I can't wait for the next event. (’70)

Thanks Sherrie for all of your work ... it's wonderful. I honestly believe that a good time was had by all !!!!!!!!!!! I'm still tired! (’72)

 I had a lot of fun over the weekend and was completely wiped out till 4:00 Sun afternoon. We should do this every couple of years. (’67)
 
 What a great time we had at the reunion. You did an amazing job. I am sure there were a lot of others that stepped up and helped make this such a successful event.

 We wanted to thank you for planning the reunion it was great !! (’70 & ’71)
 
 It was a great event (’67)
 
 We are still reeling from the re-connect. The hard work/effort to pull it together was amazing, thanks to Sherrie and crew for that (that definitely includes John, what a support system he has been). On the emotional side, WOW. It was wonderful to see you all again. Our trip down memory lane really added to the experience. Looking forward to keeping in touch with you all. It was one for the memory books and sure made the heart grow fonder. (’68 & ’72)
 
 

     

 Great Reunion and so well organized. Thanks so much for all your work. (FS)
 
 Great party! Thank you so much! It’s 1:27a.m. I can’t even recall the last time I was up so late…(’72)
 
  What a fantastic job you and your committee did for the Mane Event! It seems you thought of everything and put so much into all the elements of the evening, right down to the smallest details. I am so impressed with all your efforts. It was such a great success. I think everyone really enjoyed themselves. It was certainly a lively and enthusiastic group and you found a huge number of people who really want to stay connected. Your auction displays were delightful, along with table centerpieces, photo boards, smooth registration, every detail covered. Congratulations on doing a fabulous job for MHS and her grads. Thanks to John too for being a super guy! (’62)
 
 I can’t tell you how awed I was by the Mane Event. Your superlative organizational skills are matched only by the passion and sweat you put into it. It was fun and rewarding and thanks for everything. (’73)
 
 Thanks so much for making it possible. We had a blast! (’69)
 
 Can’t thank you enough for the fabulous evening. I really appreciate all you did to organize this gala fete and to help find people. (’72)
 
 

     

 What a TERRIFIC, SPECTACULAR job you did. I can’t put into words how impressed I was when I arrived. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. (FS)

Nice job. Very well organized and executed. As McCloud used to say, “You done good.” (’70)

THANKS! (’61)

 Thanks so much again to you, your husband and the scores of people who helped put on the reunion. It was great fun and I am so glad I was able to attend. (’72)
 
 I can’t begin to tell you how much fun we had and how impressed we were with the incredible amount of work that you and the rest did to pull off the reunion. Every detail was so well thought out: the check-in procedure, the hors d’ oeuvre buffet, the bar, the dinner buffet, the mane room and faculty tables. The memorabilia displays were incredible, particularly the student and faculty memorial collages. Again, great job. (’65)
 
  The Mane Event was a great success…you did a superb job!!! (Too bad about the rude crowd. What can I say? They all regressed in age the moment they walked through the door.) DITTO! You are the best reunion party planner!!!! It's fun getting pictures from people thru e-mails.... the party lives on!!! (’72)

Thank you for the great job you all did on the reunion. It turned out really nice. We had a ball, We had a great time! Thank You for all your hard work! (’64)
 

 I wanted to thank you all for the great event and the prizes. I thought you did a fabulous job!! (’72)
 
 You put on one heck of a party. I think I'm still recovering……you must be also. I know you had lots of help for the party, but you were the energy behind it all. Thanks for all you did. You could feel the energy in the room. Whew…what a night! Next one will have to go on for two days. (’72)
 
 I just wanted to thank you for a wonderful reunion. We had so much fun and I realized when I got home that I had not seen you that night to thank you. Having done 2 reunions I know how hard it is and how many sleepless nights thinking about things that have to be done. I really had fun and it was so nice connecting with the teachers. That was a great idea. We didn't get to bed until after 3am. Great music, too. So thank you again. (’69)
 
  Awesome job! Having all those grads from different years in one place at the same event was genius. Thank you for putting together such a wonderful event. My brother, who didn’t want to go, had a great time. Thanks for a great, great time. (’72)

What an incredible night. We had a great time. You (ALL) did such a stellar job. Every detail, from check-in, to drinks, hors d’ oeuvres, food and music. The memoriabilia table reflected so much work on your part. ('65)
 

 Wow, what a nite it was! I was so overwhelmed, that it took me a good week, to get back to myself. Really! It was emotional for me. I had a blast, and, it was done so well! You should be warmly commended on doing such a great job! What an organizer! Thank you for all your efforts! I hope we wont have to wait that long again for another reunion! Thank You So Much! (’71)
 
 I thought you put together a great ‘affair’. Having played many parties like that before, I thought it went really well. (’72)
 
 We all said you did a great job. I had fun seeing everybody and had a great time. To everybody!!! Sherrie put on one helluva MHS party. (’71)
 
 I'm glad that your Reunion was a success. I hope the group realized how much work you did to pull it off. (FS)
 
 

     

 Just wanted to tell you what a great job you did on the “event”. Everything was good, the food, music, décor, hotel, all of it. Danny Hurtado looked HOT! (’72)
 
 A note of gratitude for tracking me down, inviting me and doing all the work that I know goes into setting one of these things up. Sat. night answered so many questions about “whatever happened to”. As Bob Hope would say….”thanks for the memories”…(’72)
 
 

     

 I was amazed at how much work and creativity you put into the event. It truly was an “EVENT”. The faculty, the retro displays, everything. Everyone seemed to be having such a wonderful time. You should be very proud of yourselves. (’67)
 
 What a wonderful job you guys did. It was a total success!!! Again, thanks to all of you. (’72)
 
  What a wonderful evening it turned out to be at the MHS Reunion! It was so much fun to see everyone. The band was really good and the floor was filled with dancers. To Sherrie and friends, you all did an amazing job organizing the whole evening, so we all could just eat, laugh and enjoy ourselves. We did, and what a night to remember. (’64)
 
 Thank YOU for the great party! Nice seeing everyone. How did the years go by so quickly? (’72)
 
 EVERYONE is talking about what a great job you did. You are the best. I do appreciate you and all you did. Great seeing some of the old gang. Oh! By the way, THANK YOU SO MUCH. (FS)
 
  I can’t even begin to thank you enough for the phenomenal job that you did with this reunion. It was such a great party with so many re-connections. Morningside is like a family. Who says you can enver go home? I just wanted to let you know hos much this party was and to thank you one more time for the incredible job that you did! Your time and efforts did not go unnoticed and I really appreciated being included. I can’t stop smiling. (’72)
 
 Just a quick note to thank you again for a great evening. Saw people I hadn’t seen in almost 50 years. Again, a great time was had and thanks. (FS)
 
 Thank you and Chris and everybody for a great night. I know a lot of work and thought went into it. You’ve received WHATTA A GAL status. (’65)
 
 I for one will be eternally grateful for all that you did to lead up to that night. Thanks for everything. (’73)
 
 You all put on one great night. I had a fantastic time. Thanks. (’70)
