Memories of Loraine and Loretta Neameyer (’72)
From Minnie Mary McKay Merrill (’48):  Renton, WA
 
After all these years, I still appreciate the visits from Loraine and Loretta Neameyer when I was in the Rolla hospital.  That was in April, 1953.  I had had a car accident going to Luba Johnson’s state superintendent of schools office for help in ordering maps.  The Lockhart school didn’t have any.   Anyway, over the next 3 weeks they were frequent visitors.  Thanks so much.

Comments from Dick Johnson (’68):  Dunseith, ND
 
Gary and Friends,

        The Dunseith community has lost a good friend and neighbor with
the passing of Duane Peterson.  This fact was represented by the
attendance at his funeral where it was standing room only. Duane was one
of those that was the first to respond to a neighbor in need of any kind
of help for any reason.  As far as I know,  he also never had a bad word
to say about anyone.  The world needs lots more people like Duane.  My
condolences go out to the family and the community on the loss of our
friend and neighbor,  Duane Peterson.

Dick

Why Men Wear Earrings

Did you ever wonder why earrings became so popular with men?

A man is at work one day when he notices that his co-worker is wearing an earring.

The man knows his co-worker to be a normally conservative fellow, and is curious
about his sudden change in “fashion sense”

The man walks up to him and says, “I didn’t know you were into earrings.”

“Don’t make such a big deal, it’s only an earring,” he replies sheepishly.

His friend falls silent for a few minutes, but then his curiosity prods him
to ask,”So, how long have you been wearing one?”

“Ever since my wife found it in my truck.”

I always wondered how this trend got started.
