So, I was wondering if there are pictures out there that could be sent to me or is there a booklet being published, as with the 40th? Marsha Caddell sent me a pic of the W56 group and I recognized some of you. Didn't I see Shirley Bracey, Doreen Evanson, Janice Russell, Joyce Pentland, and Ray King? There were no names with the pictures, so I'm guessing some of you guys. Well, anyway, please respond, as I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself way up here in WA.

I
was with group of guy's from 52 - 54 classes at a luncheon
and someone asked me what happened to Bob Burns. He married
Darlene Markel when they got out of HS, in fact I was in his
wedding. I think they are
divorced. If anyone knows anything about him I would like to
know. I lived at his house my senior year. 5-2-07.....To Southgate High Alumni,
5-22-07 Hi all. I
attended Tweedy Elementary from 1957 to 1964. I see at
least one person here went to Tweedy, too. Was Mrs.
Lucas principal during your years? I would love to hear
of any other Tweedy memories anyone has.
I've
heard that the Tweedy family, after whom the school was
named, ended up in Ventura County in later years.
My memories of South Gate
are so very special. It was the best place to grow up
in - - friendly, homey, unpretentious, but nice.
Has
anyone heard of any reunions in the works? Does anyone
know the first year SGHS was in existence?
Take care, all!

8-29-07.....I have been searching my whole
life ( 72 years) for the cinnamon rolls we use
to get at South Gate High School. They were
huge and very light. You could pull them apart
and it would be like spider webs inside because
it was so light. If anyone has a recipe
that produces those cinnamon rolls PLEASE send
it to me. I would love to have another South
Gate High Cinnamon roll before I leave this old
earth.

Hello! I am a 1970
graduate of SGHS. When
my brother and I were
youngsters we had a
swell teenaged
babysitter by the name
of Diane Carver in South
Gate. I remember being
told she went to SGHS
and I remember she was
oh-so-cool and I looked
up to her so much. I
think I remember being
over her house while she
was watching us and her
putting Connie Francis's
"Lipstick on Your
Collar" on the record
player.
I would love to say
hello to her if anyone
knows where she is.
Thank you.

11-9-07... A very ill
SGHS alumnus from the
mid 50's.. Robert R.
Putman is trying to
locate 2 old
friends....Clifton
McCurry S'57 and
Patricia Thompson W'58..
11-14-07...Does
anyone remember June
Adair's dance
studio? I believe
it was called
Personality Studio,
or something like
that. It was off
Tweedy Boulevard and
I can't remember
which side street it
was actually on.
McNerney, maybe?
Anyway,
does anyone remember
June Adair, or her
sidekick (the piano
player) Mrs.
Copeland,
affectionately
called "Copey"?
Copey had a
granddaughter by the
last name of Terrell
- - I've forgotten
her first name now -
- or was Terrell her
first name? I can't
remember.
Also in June Adair's
group was a lady
named Eva Howell.
The
three of them used
to run the dance
studio, June
teaching, Copey
playing (never any
"canned" music
there!), and Eva
sometimes running a
shuttle service for
the students.
I would love to know
whatever became of
all of them.
Thank
you.

12-26-07... Does
anyone out there
have a address
email or home, phone
number etc for Dr
David Roberts from
our class of
S'56...A fellow
classmate/s have
been trying to
locate him..
1-4-08..First,
congratulations
on your
website. I was
a South Gate
resident until
the end of my
7th grade. Our
new home in Long
Beach was
completed by
then. It has
been fun to
browse your
"site" and see
many old Bryson
and JGJH
friends. Some
you might be
able to help me
find are Bob
Wright(went with
Judy Carlin), or
any of his
brothers.
After
graduating L. B.
Poly in '57, I
attended L. B.
City College.
It was a
pleasure to be
"frat brothers"
of Bob Fernald,
Art Alviso, Ken
Putnam, and Ron
Adams. Bob and
I spent a lot of
time together
double-dating,
parties, etc. I
was sorry to see
that he had
passed away, and
also Art.
I would
appreciate any
help you may be
able to give.
Please contact
me at
