Folks,
Several of you have asked and are confused with my email addresses. I use 7 email addresses to handle the volume of messages that I send. They are all good. I use Outlook express to manage my email. Outlook express gathers all my messages from all my email addresses and displays them all together on the same page. If for some reason I want to know which email message that was used for sending a message, I have to look in the properties of the message. I consider gws123456@hotmail.com my primary, only because it was the first email address I had. Overall I am most satisfied with my gmail address. It has given me the least amount of problems and is capable of handling the greatest volume of my messages.

Evelyn Gottbreht Memories
From Lois Lilleby Fielding (51): Prescott, AZ
I remember Evelyn Gottbreth very well from my childhood. Shirley Gottbreth was my friend. Somehow I also remember how patriotic she was. I remember her as being lots of fun to us kids. Lois Lilleby Fielding , (51)

Question form Denise Lajimodiere: Moorhead, MN
Gary, I believe I had read on one of the posts of some knowledge of a buffalo jump in the Turtle Mountains. I would love to find out who knows, and where it is located!

Matt Lamb is recovering from open heart surgery.
Message from his parents Bill & Betty Schnieder (54) Lamb: Grand Forks, ND.
Matt is home from the hospital. His surgery went well although he still is in alot of pain and will be a long recovery. Mayo Clinic only does about 170 of these heart procedures a year so it is not a common surgery. The Drs. spread his ribs, took out his heart, and cut off some of the muscle that was blocking the blood flow to his heart. Mayo is supposed to have the best surgeon in the world for this procedure. Matt has to go back in a few days for a follow up appointment.
The girls are busy with school and extra activities. We were to several volley ball tournaments when we first got here.
Everyone has been so kind with visits, bringing food over, and etc. We appreciate everybody’s prayers so much.
Betty and Bill
Betty & Bill, Mayo Clinic is one of the best. This was a very serious operation. It’s great to hear that all went well with Matt’s surgery. Please keep us posted. Gary

I’m pretty sure the song “The Ballad of the Green Berets came out in 1966. I remember it because it had become very popular right about the time of my graduation (I think it hit number one on both the rock and roll and country charts). This was pretty unique given that it was a very patriotic song at a time when the US Military was being reviled by much of the American public.

Mrs. Conroy’s teaching:
Reply form Dick Johnson (66): Dunseith, ND
Gary and Friends,
Bonnie Awalt Houle remembered Mrs. Conroy teaching patriotic songs for the kids to sing at the Memorial Day program. One that we learned in her class was ‘The Grand Old Flag’. It’s funny, but I still remember nearly all the words from over 50 years ago, thanks to Mrs. Conroy. She really taught more than bookwork when I think about it. We learned honesty, patriotism, and discipline as well as the 3 R’s. I still have yet to meet a student who didn’t have great respect for Mrs. Florence Conroy. Thanks Gary!
Dick
