Another fabulous Monongah High reunion

The 3^rd annual Monongah High Reunion/Sarasota in the Sarasota home of Bill Meredith, Class of 1957, and wife Roleta Meredith, a Clarksburg Washington Irvin graduate, drew a dozen Lions and friends on Feb 5, 2015.

Because I can’t combine the two photos till I return to Ohio in April, I posted both. Until I PhotoShop the two photos into one seamless photo, this will have to do.

As usual, the Lions enjoyed the day so much that they chatted, dined and laughed for four hours.

To make everyone feel like back home, Roletta served pepperoni rolls, born at Country Club Bakery in Fairmont thanks to an Italian immigrant, and West Virgina hot dogs with snappy chilli.

And John Olesky gave everyone a blue bag with yellow wrapping paper that housed Russell Stover pecan delights wrapped in a WVU Mountaineers design.
