March certainly has an impressive
pride of Lions on the birthdays list.

| Donna Davis |
Such as:
Donna Colvert
Davis, Class of 1961, married to 1958 MHS grad Bill Davis, who keeps the
Monongah High Alumni Reunion humming by handling the dinner-dance reservations.
Doris Carpenter Rogers, Class of 1971, who
lives in Charleston with husband Scott Rogers.
Phil Colanero, Jr., Class of 1963, who lives in Morgantown with
Betty Hanlin and is the son of a member of the unbeaten 1940 Monongah High
football team.

| Doris Rogers |
Richie Basagic, Class of 1975, whose father, Richard
Basagic, Class of 1948, rode on Phil Mangino’s truck with me as it transported
the Monongah High football team. Richard played; I was the team manager.
Benn Morgan,
Class of 1948, who is a genius at the organ of the Old Durham Church in
Maryland. He would love to play the St. Stephen's Cathedral organ in Passau, Germany, the world's largest pipe organ in the world. Paula and I were there and the music comes at you from the left, the right, behind, in front and above through the ceiling. It was an awesomee psunami of organ music.
There’s another March Lion birthday girl that I see
often: Sandy Weils Shaffer Cook, Class of 1959, at Monongah High Alumni
reunions in Sarasota and Punta Gorda, Florida and in Mountaineer Field in
Section 107.
Doris’ parents were Bill Carpenter and Iris Delores Martin Carpenter, Class of 1950, my
graduation year.

Monongah High has had
many Carpenters walking its hallways:
Genevieve Elutrio
Carpenter, Class of 1945.
Hellen Snider Carpenter,
Class of 1950, who lives in Cottageville, West Virginia.
Debra Urish Carpenter,
Class of 1969.
Jim Carpenter, Class of
1970.
Mary Carpenter Evans,
Class of 1970.
A Lion’s roar to the MHS
birthday boys and girls.
If your name isn’t on the MHS alumni birthdays list, email John Olesky at jo4wvu@neo.rr.com with the birthday date,
your graduation year and your current hometown and I’ll add you to the list.
