Hello!
I stumbled upon this board tonight while doing a Google on Piper High School and saw that some people from '79 had posted, so I thought I'd say hi.
I've been living in Chicago area since 1980, happily married since 1984, and have 2 daughters; 13 and 9. I was on a reunion mailing list and notified about our 10 and 15 year class reunions, but at the time of both, I was too close to the due dates of the pregnancies of each of my children, so I was "too pregnant" to travel that far away from home, and was never able to make it to either. Maybe I'll make it for the 25th. :)
I haven't been as far south as Sunrise since a vacation in 84 and we drove all around the old neighborhood, and Piper. I couldn't believe how much the area had changed, and I can only imagine how different it is today. In the late 70's the area out past University Drive hadn't really been developed yet. The only thing I do remember about that area is the Sunrise Music Theatre sitting out in the middle of nowhere - there were streets and street lights, but no houses -- and that's where I learned to drive a stick shift. (Donna French's [class of '78] Honda Civic) :)
In high school I would hang around with Donna French ('78) and last I heard she was married and living in Coral Springs (I think). Donna Pitter ('78), who was married and living in Ocala, and her sister, Lori ('79), who is married and living near Tampa (I think Donna told me she has twin girls).
Does anyone remember Chuck Miller '79, or Tim Smith from '76? They were friends of mine before I moved to Chicago, and I just wondered how they were doing.
Take care everyone.
