MHS Alumni Florida Reunion Feb. 3 in Punta Gorda
The 6th Monongah High Alumni Florida Reunion in 4
years will begin in Punta Gorda, Florida at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday, February 3.
If you can make it, contact Bill Meredith as soon as possible
because Lyla Cosner Howell, Class
of 1958, who lives in Elkins and Fort Myers Beach, Florida with husband Len Howell, has to tell the Punta Gorda restaurant how
many seats will be needed.
Bill Meredith, Class of 1957, who
with wife Roleta has hosted 3 such MHS Florida reunions in their Sarasota home,

Hello Again,
I have now heard from most of the people who
live in southwest Florida or will be visiting in early February.
Wednesday, February 3, seems to be the date that we can get the most people to attend.
So, we will meet for lunch in Punta Gorda, Florida on that date at 11:30 a.m.
As I mentioned earlier, those of us north of
Punta Gorda can meet at my home in Sarasota and carpool to lunch. If you
are interested in doing that, please let me know and I will send details
and directions to you.
For now, I need to know for sure who will be
attending. Please let me know ASAP. If you need to talk to me, my
home phone is (941) 342-0030. My cell is (614) 582-0335. Lyla
Cosner Howell will reserve a big table for us at a local restaurant. I
will notify you as soon as that is done.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Bill Meredith, Class of 1957
Well, Bill and Lyla, Class of 1958, have done the hard part. All
you need to do is contact Bill to give him a number and then show up.
And have fun. At these reunions former Lions don’t want to leave
and chat for hours about their lives and their Monongah High days.
At the most recent MHS reunion in Punta Gorda, which is about 50
miles south of Sarasota, those who attended were Lyla Cosner and Len; Patty
Timms Davidson, Class of 1958, and Merlin Davidson, Class of 1957;
Louis "Kipper" Fabian, Class of 1957; Joe Martin,
Class of 1959, and Arlene Kitchin Martin, a Nova Scotia, Canada native; Lloyd
Schell, Class of 1957; Sandy Weils Shaffer Cook, Class of 1959, and husband Bob
Cook; and Bill and Roleta.
At the most recent MHS reunion in Sarasota at the Meredith home,
those who attended were Bob Arnett, Class of 1957, and Barb Enoch Arnett, Class of 1960;
Lyla and Len; Sandy and Bob; Joe and Arlene; and John Olesky, Class of 1950, with
Paula Stone Tucker, an Akron St. Mary’s High graduate.
