CATCHING UP WITH JOYCE VINEY ROSS

 



Saunda Joyce Viney Ross, Class of 1968, who goes by Joyce Ross these days, is retired in Columbia, South Carolina.

She got her first Pfizer COVID vaccine and will get her 2nd Friday. She had no reaction to the first shot.

At my request, she provided the following information:

I am married to Dan Ross who went to FSH (Fairmont Senior High, which we called Fairmont West when was attending Monongah High).

 

“We will be married 46 years on 3/1.

 

“We are both retired, me from Fairmont State and Dan from Fairmont General Hospital. After we both retired we moved to Columbia, SC.

 

“Our son, Michael, graduated from FSH (again, aka Fairmont West) and Fairmont State University. Our daughter, Jennifer, graduated from FSH (aka Fairmont West) and Newberry College in Newberry, SC.

 

“After she graduated she got a job in Columbia, SC, met her husband and stayed in Columbia.

 

“Now we all live in Columbia, SC. I have 8 grandchildren!

 

“My birthday is 12/8/1950.

 

“Have a great Thursday!

 

“Joyce Viney Ross”

If you want to contact Joyce, go to the

Facebook page.

If any other Lions want to tell me about their lives since Monongah High, including their COVID experiences, email me at jo4wvu@neo.rr.com

Answer these question when you do:

 

1. Have you or anyone in your family gotten COVID? Full names, cities of residence. How did it turn out?

2. Have you had your vaccine shots? 1 or 2? Pfizer or Moderna. Any reactions. I’ve had 2 Pfizer shots and a bruised arm for 2 weeks is my only reaction.

3. Do you know of any Monongah High alumni who have died from COVID? Full names, cities of residence, month and year of their deaths?

Hopefully your good experiences with the vaccine shots might encourage other Lions to get them if they are reluctant or waiting to see what happens to the early vaccine recipients before deciding to get their shots.

If you don’t want to post it publicly you are welcome to call me at (330) 388-4466 to chat about your COVID or vaccine experiences.

If you want to U.S. Mail me the information:

Thank you.

 

John Olesky, Class of 1950
