Grace and Peace Ivan, It's Pam Washington, 80 #12-C. Surely you must remember me and my brother Glenn (Butch). I went to school with Vairon. I enjoyed your pictures immensely. Spoke to Carol (Woodcock) not long ago. She's doing good. It has been a treat for me to look at your pictures. I have to say I really enjoyed my childhood despite everything. We had a togetherness that will never be forgotten. I admired your mom (Ms. Billie) so much. She was a classy lady. My love to all and may you be richly blessed. Love Pam!

These pictures are amazing! So many great memories. I am Charlie Johnson's younger brother, Ronald. Charlie's spirit is out there, but he is no longer physically with us, he passed in 1992 and my younger brother Fred passed on New Year's Day 2000. My brother, Alton, and I are still here, as are my parents who are in their 80s and still very much together. this is a wonderful website, and God Bless!

Joe, yes he does and I may have some pics with Reuben in it. If not, you know Mr. Archive has them. 260? My scanner will go through melt-down! But Goldmine is right, what a great set of pictures. Great job Ivan.
joe 09-Aug-2001 14:38
Wow! Another goldmine, Julio! Ivan has kept a wonderful record. I look forward to the additional 260 images. Does Ivan remember Reuben France who also attended Shaw? As I recall, so did Fermin.
