“I thought it would be fun, but it was even better than expected. So good to see everyone!”

“Thank you for reaching out. I appreciate your work and effort on what must be a very expansive and daunting project.  I have been living in Olympia for the last 30+ years but only know two members of our class in Olympia, off the top of my head. I will however, consider attending the reunion. Thank you again for the information. “
