VHS Class of ' 53 Message Board
Our VHS'53 Message Board is an alternative to the En Mass e-mail feature. So, If you have messages for all of us, or a group that is planning an activity, you can send a message here. Remember, what you write will be seen by everyone. There is a one requirement: Enter Your Name. The entry of your email address is optional (but the webmaster reserves the right to delete your message, or any other inappropriate messages). There is another major constraint... you CAN NOT enter `double quote` characters in your message (the single backquote, `, can be used as a substitute). The Message Board holds 50 messages and purges the older ones.

Thanks Betty ![]() From: Betty (Fielder) Dowell (eznonlady@verizon.net) June 21 2008 June 21, 2008 I got the email you all got from Ron Reed asking us to send a Bio for his new ''Fifty-Five Plus Club'' which you will see near the top of this VHS Web Site. I'm one of the alumna/alumnus of W'53 who has never written and was really starting to feel guilty. Anyhow, I sent my bio and a note to Ron as follows: 'Out of all of the our classmates that you emailed, I do hope some will also send bios and get the ball rolling. It's a great site and I think everyone should have fun putting a bio together. I know I had fun doing it, and am glad you know how to do this. I can type an email, but could never set up a site the way you do. Thanks, Betty' So hope you all will do the same, Thank You, Betty ![]() From: john (john@yahoo.com) Home page: http://www.4coloring.com June 8 2008 nice site, keep it up ![]() From: Annette (ashore7665@hotmail.com) December 28 2007 Glad I checked out the site! ![]() From: umuahia Mugu (mugumaga@yahoo.com) October 6 2007 i like the site keep it up ![]() From: FRANCISCO ESPINOZA (alex.espinoza@hotmail.com) July 13 2007 Im Looking for a Girl named Melina, She Graduated on Year 1994,if you have info that can help me I will Appreciate,or if you have the year book her last name is a lot of help .thank you ![]() From: DARLENE TATE (dtate520@aol.com) July 10 2007 MY MOTHER WAS A HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR IN 1953, SHE GOT PREGNANT,HER NAME WAS MARSHA, OR MARCIA, A STURDY ATHLETIC TYPE, SHE DIED AT 40 IN SEATTLE AND I JUST WANTED TO GET A PICTURE OF HER, THEY SENT HER AWAY, SHE HAD AN UNCOMMON LAST NAME, IF YOU COULD ASK AROUND TO OTHER SCHOOLS , I DONT REALLY KNOW WHERE SHE WENT TO SCHOOL, THANKS, HER DAUGHTER ![]() From: marion miketa snedaker (fulmer) (mimilou@charter.net) July 8 2007 Good your getting back to your ole self Ron!!!

It appears that for some weeks/months before May 17th I had been acquiring another acute case of anemia. I have had bouts with same for 10 yess or more. I must have got some low resistence, and picked up a herpis virus (most everyone has the herpies virus, not the gential form in our system) in my throat. Then it appeas I contracted ''mono'' on thop of that. Anyway hospitalized on Thur May 17th. Family was told I had 24 hours on the 21st as they could not determine what was happening. Aftrer platelles, whole blood and some protien transfusions, I fooled them all and slowing recovered enough to live. Transfer to a rehab/nursing center, and release on June 26th. Home now, Lost 24 lbs and a lot of muscle strength. Under home care for a few weeks. Needed to go to Goodwill to get new clothes as pants with belt just drop to the floor. Just need to take my time to recover my physical condition. ![]() From: Gretchen (Greene) Bywater (alanby2004@earthlink.com) May 17 2007 Please ''E'' mail guest list, when you get one,for the reunion. Thank you, Gretchen ![]() From: Pat Shea Tinker Raab (ptinker@terpalum.umd.edu) January 30 2007 Does anyone have contact information for Dr Eugene P Mathias. He was not a 1953 graduate, but did attend Venice in the late 30's. His age is probably 95; I think his wife's name is Barbara. He had a medical practice in Mar Vista and Culver City; was our family physician for years in the 40's and 50's. (He delivered ME in 1935 in a small community hospital in Culver City, which was either right on the MGM lot, or very near. I'm interested in finding him and/or getting info on the hospital, particularly on its precise location in the 30's. I'm not sure whether or not it was connected with medical care of the movie actors under contract to MGM, but it may have been. Does anyone know anything about any of this? If so, pls give me a holler... ptinker@terpalum.umd.edu ![]() From: John McArthur (info@artdept.com) January 15 2007 Venice High School Class of 1957 is having their 50th Reunion this fall. Please look in on our web site: http://www.venicehighclassof57.com Like to than Ron Reed for research used. ![]() From: Fr. Julius Orange (fatherjulius@mailworks.org) November 25 2006 My condolences on the passing of Mr. Kelley. ![]() From: Pat (Shea) Tinker Raab (ptinker@terpalum.umd.edu) October 25 2006 (should have read the quote instructions; guess that's why the rest of my msg got deleted...) OK - big news is that Ted Raab and I had a `pull out all the stops` wedding on June 23, 2006, in Chautauqua New York. If you've never heard of the Chautauqua Institution near Lake Erie, check it out on ciweb.org. It is unique. Our wedding ceremony took place in the huge, old, beautiful Athenaeum Hotel, circa 1880. It has a spectacular view of Lake Chautauqua and it has served summer visitors to the Institution for the past 120 years+. About eighty friends and family gathered there for our wedding and reception, which was catered by our favorite French chef, Jonathan, whose creations from the hors d'ouevres to the traditional puff pastry French wedding cake were pronounced `fabulous`. We had a blast. I had never had a `big` wedding before--and it made me feel nineteen again! As a wedding present, Ted presented me with a white baby grand Yamaha piano. What a dream come true (both him and the piano...). It looks great in our Florida apartment. We travel much of the year, but call Ft Lauderdale `home.` (at least in the winter). For the past six years, we've been going to France every Spring, taking our barge, L'Heritage, through the French canals. But this past Spring we sold our share in her, so will now be branching out to other Spring travel destinations...We spend each summer in Chautauqua, it is such a fantastic place. I just replied to Sue, Marsha Sokol's daughter, re my friendship with Marsha when we both worked in the Venice Admin office. I remember her very fondly, and it's nice to know of Sue's existence. I miss CA and am working up to a trip to the west coast next year. Hope there will be some kind of mini-reunion in Apr or May.

Activity from people is one thing that helps keep it great. It's amazing how many from '53 are here and few from years before and after. Don S'48 ![]() From: Laura Peritore (lpclaims@pacbell.net) May 22 2006 Do you know a similar (admirable) website for the class of '49 or '50? Or the contact person for the alumni of those classes? Thank you! ![]() From: Sue Rochman (sue.rochman@earthlink.net) March 12 2006 Hi, I'm looking for anyone who was friends with my mother, Marsha Sokol, or who has a yearbook photo of her. Thanks in advance, Sue ![]() From: Ron Reed (ronreed@passco.com) February 10 2006 I have added 1) a color photo image of most of the campus and 2) a link to the Acme mapping site so you can look at Venice today. - Ron ![]() From: onyezeguy (mugu@aol.com) January 12 2006 very god site keep it up ![]() From: deb twomey (2mefive@comcast.net) January 4 2006 I am interested in any available information on your classmate C.

Thanks, Deb T. ![]() From: Ron (ronreed@passco.com) December 20 2005 Happy Holidays to All, Priscilla and I are semi-settled after a week in our new townhouse in Harrisburg, NC (just North of Charlotte, between Charlotte and Concord, five miles from the Lowe`s Concord Speedway, and two miles from the UNC campus). Our Christmas tree is trimed, our New Jersey and North Carolina families will be here for this Christmas weekend. Our other son's family will make a visit in Febuary. Since I am back in the south I am picking up the `Y'all` have a nice holiday. ![]() From: Marion Miketa Snedaker (Fulmer) (mmsnedaker@charter.net) November 6 2005 Finally found out the whereabouts of a missing classmate...Janet Mills. She is residing in Santa Monica, but does not have an email address. I believe Sharon has also been notified by Janet's daughter. You can confirm this with Sharon if necessary. ![]() From: Ron November 4 2005 Hello All, Well for the later part of this month (November) and probably until pre Christmas... our VHS site will not be updated. Priscilla and I are moving to the Charlotte area in our new townhouse (http://passco.com/th.htm). Not that there is much to update. I do spend mucho time keeping the Ohio High School site up ( http://tc-alumni.org ). I know it may not seem fair to VHS... but you are all welcome to share the activity on that site.
