Folks, Starting today I am only going to list the message number along with “Dunseith Alumni” in the Subject block.  I think the long subject titles may be one of the problems for some of these messages not going through to some of you folks.

Please don’t miss the email list update info at the very bottom of this message  Gary

Condolences From David Slyter (70): 

To the Prichard family:

My condolences to you all with the passing of your dear mother and wife.  God has taken her home and now she can rest and watch over all of you from there.

I always remember when going to the Birchwood, that big welcome she would greet everybody with and make them feel that way when you walked thru the door.  It certainly will be missed.

God’s Blessings on all of you.

Dave Slyter (70)

Condolences from Bobby Slyter (70): 

My condolences to the prichard family, I am praying for them at this time.

JUST LITTLE OLE  ME FROM KANSAS

Condolences/Message from Dick Johnson (68): 

Gary and Friends,

First I would like to offer my condolences to the Pritchard family, on
the loss of Ann. We know she will be missed by all the folks at the lake.
I would also like to thank Gary Morgan for sending the explanation  for
the large basement dugout across from the lumberyard. I never heard the
name ‘George Pudenz’ ever mentioned before. This is a new one for me. I
remember how the snow would blow over the edge of ‘Pudenz’s Canyon’ and
make a snow cliff for us to dig in and jump off! In the summer it was
just a place to explore and goof around, and we did plenty of that!
Thanks Gary Morgan and thanks Gary Stokes!

Dick


From Gary Stokes:

Folks,

With connections made through this sight, we just had a big wedding here in Cebu, Philippines.  Jared Steele who works for Terry Moe (73) at T’s Yamaha in Bottineau got in touch with me after I had gotten in touch with Terry putting his class list together.  We introduced Jared to several nice young ladies and he connected well with Geraldine. Geraldine is a very nice pleasant charming young gal.  She’s a recent college grad with a degree in teaching. After many phone conversations and email messages, Jared came to the Philippines in mid June.  He and Geraldine were married in a beautiful ceremony with a reception that followed, on July 28th, with nearly 200 guests. Jared has returned to Bottineau, but plans to return to the Philippines to accompany Geraldine back to Bottineau when her visa is processed and ready.  This process takes 6 to 8 months.  Jared stayed with us when he was here.  We really enjoyed having him as a guest.  He is a very nice pleasant young man.  Geraldine is currently staying with us while she is processing her paper work for her visa to go back to Bottineau.

If you guys are in the Bottineau area and for those of you in the Bottineau area, stop by and see Jared and Terry at T’s (Terry’s) Yamaha.  They’d love to sell you some Yamaha machines too.  I understand that those 4 wheeler ATV’s (All Terrain Vehicles) are a hot item and selling like hot cakes.  From what I was told, they are located out by Theels.

I have pasted some pictures below of the Wedding day.

This picture was taken in our office the day of the wedding. We had professional beauticians come to our house for the hair and make-up of the girls & ladies that were in the wedding. 

I was busy putting out the daily blog to you folks before going to the wedding. Gary

Folks,

I will be putting out another revision to our email list after I’m finished with the 40′s classes. I think I will go back as far as the class of 34.  That was Clarence Hagen’s class and he is still going strong.  He and Mary Ann are now living in Bottineau.

Listed Below are the email addresses of folks that have been added to our list since I posted the last update.

Recently, putting together the class of 44, I had some really nice visits with Bob Boardman, Oscar Hagen & Howard Landsverk. They all have email and their email addresses are list below.
