Alumni Communication - May 8, 2006

 


Hello BHS Class of 1986,

I have some sad news to tell you. I've recently found out about the deaths of two classmates.

David Prescod
David passed away on October 31, 2005 from lung cancer. His obituary is on the web site if you want to learn more about his life.

Larry Boyd
Larry passed away last month on Saturday, April 8th. I was told about his passing by classmate Tom Gallant. I have yet to find an obituary for him, nor do I have any information on what happened. If anyone finds out any information about his untimely death, could you please contact me? Thanks.

In remembrance, if you have any "Memories" or "Stories" you would like to add to the web site on either of these classmates or any of the our other classmates, please email them to me.

We've sadly lost nine alumni from our class. Too many...

On a slightly sweet note, Todd Coffman's mom recently sent me a beautiful afghan. She's only made three of these ever, and one of them was for Todd. She wanted to show her appreciation for the web pages I've built for Todd and thanks for keeping his memories alive. You have no idea how powerful of a gift this was for me and how much it made me cry. He has such a great mom!

BANQUET DISPLAYS -- In Memory Of...

Need Help
For Saturday's banquet, there will be a really nice display to honor those who have passed away. It will include a basket of Forget-me-not seed packets that each classmate can take and plant in memory of those who have passed away. This donation was made by Andre Parker's family.

Besides their senior year picture and any other pictures sent in, I would like to include a note or something from a family member. I don't have contact info for any of these classmate's families, and I would love some help: Hilda Bailey, Larry Boyd, Jodi Callahan, Sharron Lilley, Wallace Monceaux, and David Prescod. Please contact me immediately.

Take care everyone,
Dawn Dalton (Houghtaling)
