Thank you for the birthday greetings– right on the day.  I went to Ackworth school in 4th and 5th grade.  I think it was 1951 and 52.  Charlotte Lang was my 5th grade teacher.  I do remember walking home from school every day up that crooked hill road and then turn past your folks’ place by the cemetery and then sometimes back to your place when our folks were not home.  Your Mom would always let us wait there.  I thought she was really nice.  Judy LaCroix McGuire        I enjoyed the joke of the day!
Judy,
 
I had Charlotte Lang too, in first grade, the year after you left. That would have been in 1953.
 
You had a long walk from School to home too. That is at least 2 miles, maybe more and then back down to our place if your folks were not home.
 
That Crooked hill west of Ackworth used to get kind of greasy too, when it rained. I remember folks being stuck on that hill several times. There wasn’t much gravel on the roads in those days either. The road from our place to your place up on the Johnnie Hiatt farm was kind of a trail back then too. Lots and lots of mud when it rained and lots of snow in the winter months. Those were the good old days that we can look back on.  Not sure I would want to relive them though.

Gary Stokes’ comments.
 
For me Tom Evans very much resembles the way I remember Alan Boguslawski.
Larry, you handsome devil, you do mirror Carmen Myer, at least in my eyes.
