Trail of Monongah High birthdays to greet us in Florida
While Paula and I are in Florida for January-March 2015 I hope
to help some Monongah High alumni celebrate their birthdays.
Arlene Marteney Decker Edgell, Class of 1951, will add another
notch to her lifespan on Jan. 18. We will see her and husband Okey Edgell at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 30
at the Three Ways Inn in Fairmont when at least 14 MHS grads will be sharing
dinner and memories.
Joe Martin, Class of 1957, who lives on Treasure Island,
Florida, will have his birthday Jan. 19 and Paula and I will probably see Joe
and wife Arlene Kitchin (born May 12) in Sarasota at noon Feb. 6, 2015 for the
3rd annual Monongah High Reunion/Sarasota at the home of Bill
Meredith (born July 5), Class of 1957, and wife Roleta. And maybe again on
March 1 at West Virginia Day Picnic in The Villages.
Bob Nichols, Class of 1964, will have his birthday Feb. 9. Bob
& Penny plan to visit us in The Villages for West Virginia Day because they
live in Seminole, which is near St. Petersburg.
Lyle Cosner Howell, Class of 1958, probably will show up at the
Merediths for the Feb. 6 MHS reunion. Her birthday isn’t till April 14, but
maybe we can have an early birthday party for her. Pat Slovekosky Morris (born
June 8), Class of 1970, who lives in Sarasota, usually shows up for the
Meredith bash, too with husband Train. So does Sandy Weils Shaffer Cook, Class
of 1959, who lives in Fort Myers, Florida with husband Bob.
Joyce Cowart Davis Peck, Class of 1966, lives in Palm Harbor,
Florida, as do John Matkovich, Class of 1948, and wife Dolores Sweede Matkovich,
Class of 1953. John and Dolores plan to meet us for West Virginia Day in The
Villages.
Pat Meredith Wills (born Aug. 29), Class of 1950, who lives on
Crescent Beach near to St. Augustine, Florida, plans to attend West Virginia
Day in The Villages with husband Don Wills.
Leo Kubiet, Class of 1942, lives in Largo, Florida, which is
near St. Petersburg. His birthday is April 11. Another early celebration.
As for the 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 30 dinner at the Three Ways Inn in Fairmont, those attending will include June Paxton Rogers; Ramona Fullen Michalski and her daughter, Marcia Michalski and Marcia's husband, Dave; Linda Tomlinson Stevenski & husband Andy; Jeanie Nagel Viglianco; Jackie Olesky Straight & 2 family members; Don Halpenny; maybe Paula Fazio & her husband; and me.
And you if you want to join us, call me at (330) 388-4466 so that I can tell Three Ways Inn how many chairs to set at our table.
