What wonderful memories you have shared Duncan! Thank you so much. I had many laughs seeing my younger brother Alex Gaal in some of your photos. I was about four years ahead of you and Alex. However, there are many familiar names and faces. Great job!!

Ann Elliott (Hutton)		05-Oct-2011 04:19
Wow! What a great trip down memory lane. I really enjoyed seeing some of the old pictures of dad (Foster Hutton). Thank you.

Donna Bonaccorso(Freeman)		13-Aug-2011 02:26
Thank you Duncan for letting me relieve those years we were in school and all the people I remember some as friends and classmates.

Ed		01-Aug-2011 03:55
This is what photography is all about! Your work is love to life. All kinds of pictures from great to fair but all worth their weight in gold.

Joyce Hendry		31-Jul-2011 13:14
Hi Duncan. I am not a high school attendee from this time but from the 80's. It was awesome to see earlier pictures of some of the teachers that I recognize. Thank you for sharing :) Joyce (Post) Hendry 1979-1984.

Great pictures. The football fan is Alison Chard

Guest		23-May-2011 04:34
Wow Steve! First picture is of my cousin Connie. I do believe I dated a few of these beautiful Simcoe lasses.

Bob Hayes		10-Apr-2011 20:29

Michael Greatrix		30-Jan-2011 13:20
Boy, lots of memories of places and familiar faces. Thanks for taking the time to take them back then. Great black and white shots have held up much better than the yellowing color ones from the 80's !

zonedout		27-Jan-2011 00:24
I don't know any of these people.... and yet I know all of them....

longbachnguyen		24-Jan-2011 04:19

Great gallery Duncan !!

Allan Watts		15-Aug-2010 17:03
Thank you very much for the visual storey. I can't believe I'm in there with my worst 'bad hair day' ever!! Duncan, some of the pictures are familiar because I used them in the Monocle, the year I edited. My favourites are Diane Shepard talking to Doug Dobie, and Connie Wilson. Great work. Allan Watts

cyndi kellner cressman		05-Jul-2010 05:37

Barrie Ashworth		11-Mar-2010 00:02
Dunc, You can take a trip down memory lane but a photo must be taken... Thanks for your photographic memory. Did Prudence Cowsill ever make it to the Taj Mahal???

Kate Alford Thedorf		19-Jan-2010 00:48
Great photos. I recognize some form the old year books. Remember how old we thought the teacher were.....they look pretty young in the photos. Live is good!!

Don Mottershead		17-Jan-2010 03:06
I went to high school in a different part of Canada, but around the same time. These images really bring back the spirit of those times. Great job.

mike carson		04-Jan-2010 15:08
hey man what a flashback eh--the best of times

Leesa Maxell-Harrington		03-Oct-2008 19:19
Great pics Duncan, lots of memories, I forgot all about Jim's other name "David Charles Alan Fine" Nice to see that you are still taking lots of pics.

Mary Catharine (Smith)		02-Oct-2008 23:08
What alot of memories these pics brought back. Thanks Duncan! Now if we only knew where everyone was and what they are all doing. The link to these pics has been posted by someone on to the NORFOLK TALKS forum so I am sure you will get lots of comments.

Leonard Groeneveld		01-Feb-2008 17:46
I finally figured out what I'm holding in my hand in the "Zipper" photo - the Golden Shovel! I just can't remember if I was receiving it or awarding it. A nice trip down memory lane Duncan.

Peter Morgan		28-Nov-2007 00:52
Great pics, Duncan. You really capture the spirit of the times. Black and white and lots of heart all around. It's fun to be reminded of people and times that were until a moment ago lost. Thanks.

Ed Doerksen		19-Nov-2007 03:23
Wow, these are awesome pictures - I still have my year books and go through them once in a while and wonder where everyone is. Thanks for posting these

Gary Smith		02-Jul-2007 04:21
Wow!!! I can't believe it, it's been a long long time. Remember me?
