SOUTHFIELD
– Go Stags!
Karen and I
attended Mackenzie High’s 40th year reunion –
Class of ’67, whoa, that’s a few years ago! – on Nov. 4 at
the
Southfield
Marriott. They let
Karen in even though she was a Dearborn Pioneer.
Also at our
table were Pam (Dugas) Fair, Linda (Aja) Smith, Brad Mathers and
their spouses. At right is a picture of us former classmates
with another Mackenzie alum.
It was good to
see everybody, talk about old times, catch up on new times, pose
for pics and other stuff you do at reunions.
Class President Gerald Cardwell (a minister in
Detroit
) was the gracious master of ceremonies. There were stories, a
nice poem (“We’re Still Here”) by Theodora Gist, a slide
show, food and dancing.
Next
milestone reunion: the 50th!
Woo-hoo! |

ATTENTION,
ALL FORMER MACKENZIE STAGS:
A
Mackenzie Picnic will be held the last Sunday in June at
Hammerburg Field, corner of West Chicago and
Wyoming
, where the Stags played their football games. Sure, the
high school is closed for good, but the alumni folks
haven’t closed up shop. |
