Some guys have all the luck.

Danny Brooks, who lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma with wife Katie Brooks, has Beth Pritchard Brooks, Jewel Brooks, Susan Delaney on his lap.

·         Beth, Class of 1978, who lives on Harter Hill in Worthington with her husband, Rick Brooks, when he doesn’t have a project that takes him all over the United States. I’m assuming that Danny is Rick’s brother. Otherwise, these ladies are VERY friendly to a stranger.

Beth’s sister is Jane “Nene” Pritchard Moore, Class of 1975, who has been an LPN at Pediatric Associates since 1999 and lives in Fairmont with husband Henry Moore; and Jonna Pritchard Barnett, who was in the first graduation class at North Marion in 1980 after going to Monongah High for three years, married to Brad Barnett, a Shinnston High grad.

Their parents are John Pritchard and Mary Jane McDaniel Pritchard, daughter of the famous Ted McDaniel, Monongah Streetcar Stationmaster. Mary Jane’s brother, Jim McDaniel, Class of 1960, lives in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Another brother, Donald McDaniel, Class of 1946, passed away in 1963.

Their sister, JoAnn McDaniel Huff, Class of 1949, lives in Worthington in the house that George Davis built on Kings Alley.

JoAnn's son, Robb Huff, Class of 1970, lives in Colorado. JoAnn also has two daughters, Valerie Huff Williams and Melissa Huff Salvatore, who both graduated from Elkins High School.
