Pictures and biographical sketches for Class of 1960

Pat & Mary Lou Pendergrass: Have three step sons, two step daughters, one daughter, and one grand daughter. Licensed pilot and owned a four place Piper Cherokee for ten years. VFW and Elk member. Retired in 1993. Remarried in 1996 to Mary Lou, a retired teacher with one married daughter. We square dance two or three times a week and travel a lot. (18 countries and 28 states) Design and publish web pages for a hobby. Editor of the HSHS Class Reunion Website. Live north of Las Cruces on an acre with lots of fruit and nut trees.

Mary Helene Clary and Jerry Myrick married the evening following graduation. Moved to Hobbs, New Mexico shortly thereafter and have remained there. We have a son and 2 daughters, 3 Grandchildren, and 6 GREAT Grandchildren, all living in the Hobbs area. Mary has worked as church secretary, A CPA firm, and a Floral and Gift shop through the years and enjoyed the experience. However, when the first GREAT-Grandson came along, I saw the opportunity of spoiling him real good, so stayed home. We have enjoyed two other Great Grandsons and 3 Great Granddaughters since then. Jerry retired in 2004 and we have enjoyed the time together. We have done a little traveling with classmates, and what an experience that has been! Mary maintains the HSHS Database as her Hobby.

Randy Call I still own my own business, but I wish I was retired! Cathy says we're semi-retired. What's that supposed to mean? (It means that for the first time in 25 years we took a 2 week vacation this yea, and went to Ohio. Cathy---We are making and effort to enjoy life. We have built a house at Lake Alan Henry which is a great lake southeast of Post, Tx. It's supposed to be our home away from home, but so far we've spent very little time there. I also like to go fishing and boating there. We have recently bought a 5th wheel so we plan to do a lot of traveling. I'm ready to go today!

Mike Reid Mike Reid: I have been retired for four years, and it hasn't been boring at all. I have been helping my wife Virginia at the school library. Also taking care of my granddaughter Tarryn-Jade, While her mother works or is in school. That alone is a full time job. I have 11 grand kids; it's very hard trying to spend time with all of them. I still play in a couple of golf tournaments a year. I really need to practice more. I just play for the fun of being with some of the people I used to work with. We get to spend some time on Lake Powell. Sure is a pretty place to be, when the wind isn't blowing. We have a 25-foot cabin cruiser, and it handles the rough water really well. I hope everyone shows up for this special reunion. I feel the friendship of the 1960 class is the best. Maybe we just want to feel young by not breaking the ties. It sure brings back fond memories of yesteryear.

Nerose Hyman Graham Nerose Hyman Graham: I moved with my family to Plains, Texas the day after graduation in 1960 and lived here since that time. I have been teaching for 30 years in Denver City, Texas at an elementary school, which is about a 45 minute drive from plains. I am about ready for retirement, I think I am getting too old for this. I married Joe Brown and we have two sons. We also have two grandchildren. Joe and I were divorced and I am now married to Lee Graham and we continue to live in Plains, Texas

Linda (Morgan) and cliff Durbin Linda (Morgan) and Cliff Durbin: Wish I could be with everyone this year but I will be in Apache Junction AZ at the wedding of my nephew, Jeff Morgan. Needless to say, my brother will not be at the reunion either and he has wanted to attend one. Two years ago his other son became a father class reunion weekend. Kids will do it to you every time! Clifford and I have been retired since 1994 and spend our winters in AZ and try to spend our summers in BC, Yukon Terr and Alaska. We launched the new millennium in Las Vegas, returned home in April for taxes and left for a month in Europe. We spent our 37th anniversary in London (as we did our 35th). What a fun city. This summer we are doing the grandparent thing and enjoying every minute. Our motorhome is parked at the ocean so the whole family can enjoy the beach all summer. We have two sons, 34 and 32. One has 4 girls and the other 3 girls - Mackenzie 8, Morgan 7, Taylor 6, Jordan 6, Carlie 4, Madison 3 and Courtney 2. We live in WA because Clifford loves to fish and Boeing was here. Our home is on the Green River in Auburn. I worked at Bell Labs in NJ for two yrs as did Clifford while he completed his Masters in Mechanical Engr at NY Univ. Clifford switched to computing in the early years and I later worked for a wholesale paper house as a Customer Service Rep. Very interesting work but I was more than happy to retire and play. Have a good time everyone. I hope to be at the next gathering of friends.

Sorry I wasn't able to make the last reunion. I intended on doing so but time just got away from me. Seems as if time is just whizzing by these days. I have been married to Judy since 1962. We have 3 grandchildren and one new great granddaughter. I have been working in engineering since about 1964 designing piping systems and layout of petrochemical plants and offshore platforms. I have 2 Tennessee Walking horses and train hunting dogs for a past time. I had an airplane but sold it and am not flying at this time. I fly RC model airplanes from time to time. I've had several boats and fished a lot when I lived in Garland Texas. When I moved to Houston fishing got to be too much trouble due the the distance and traffic. We have a small house on 2 acres just outside Houston in Cypress. The horses make a mess on the place but with my tractor I am able to clean up after them. Been working around 55 hour / week for about 2 years now. I am trying to learn to build web pages for my wife and the dog club. Well I guess that's more than you wanted to know so I will let you go. I would be interested in the next reunion. Lord willing I will still be around then. Bye, Gerald (Jerry) Richey
