Class of 73 pictures
Posted by Trish Larson Clayburgh (’73): trish.wild@yahoo.com Montana
Folks,
This is the list of folks in this picture, but I do not know who is who. I think No 5 is Clark Parrill, but not sure. No 9 looks like Trish Larson.
Need some help please.

Joke of the day
A man walks out to the street and catches a taxi just going by. He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, “Perfect timing. You’re just like Frank.”
Passenger: “Who?”
Cabbie: “Frank Feldman … he’s a guy who did everything right all the time.
Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happened like that to Frank Feldman every single time.”
Passenger: “There are always a few clouds over everybody.”
Cabbie: “Not Frank Feldman. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone, and danced like a Broadway star. And you should have heard him play the piano! He was an amazing guy.”
Passenger: “Sounds like he was somebody really special.”
Cabbie: “Oh hell there’s more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered everybody’s birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat it with. And he could fix anything. Not like me I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Frank Feldman, he could do everything right.”
Passenger: “Wow, some guy then.”
Cabbie: “He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams.
Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Frank, he never made mistakes, and he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good. He would never argue back, even if she was in the wrong; and His clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too.
He was the perfect man! I never knew him to make a mistake! No one could ever measure up to Frank Feldman.”
Passenger: “An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?”
Cabbie: “I never actually met Frank. He died, and I married his wife”!

First of all, I want to apologize for a gross error that I made with the caption above Lois Hiatt’s picture with yesterday’s message. Actually there were two mistakes. Lois is Deceased, not Diseased and she died in Dec. not Nov. That was a typing error on my part. I actually caught both those mistakes when I re-read my returned copy. Often times I forget to use spell check, but I did spell check yesterday’s message. With Diseased being a word, spell check did not detect the error. Often times I find my self reading right over some very obvious errors when proof reading what I am sending. Thanks to those of you that replied with corrections to those errors. I really do appreciate all replies with corrections. Gary

Hi Gary,
Yes, we are all on the list now. Thank you for the pictures of Lois. I didn’t have any pictures of her where she was that young. I never really thought I looked like her, but I do see the resemblance when I look at the picture now, although she was a lot prettier then I was at that age.
Thanks to everyone who have sent pictures of the Hiatt family. I think Dick is the main person who has sent some if not all of them in. It is nice to be able to print out ones that we have never seen or didn’t have.
To Rita Anderson: Sometimes I don’t think my memory isn’t as good anymore either, but Wallace passed away (I think) a year ago and then not too long after that, it was Eldon. The only one left is Bernard.
Wow, I didn’t know Dad had worked at the Gamble store. I do know that Mom and Dad really enjoyed being around you and Edgar.
Rhonda Hiatt
Gary, I hit the send button by mistake I wanted to add Happy Holidays to Rita and I changed the caption over the picture of Lois to Dec 08 and Deceased.
Thanks
Rhonda

Question from Sybil Johnson:
MERRY CHRISTMAS, to all of you! Does anyone know what happened to Hazel Hiatt? I remember her always wearing men’s clothes, but she was a hard worker.
Seeing the Hiatt name many times, these past months, reminds me of her coming to Bernice’s house all the time. She was a tiny woman, as I remember and
always wore a cowboy hat. I have a picture of her, somewhere and when I find it, I will put it on.

Bill Hosmer’s (48) Reply to Don Aird:
Gary and All. I was pleased to read about Don Aird’s commennts. His Mother worked at the Hosmer Store for many years. When I was a kid, in the 30’s I mean the decade, not my age, folks, I would walk into the store, go into the “Ladies Side” as was called the dress, notions, and other “lady merchandise” part of the store. I tried to time it around mid afternoon, because Clarissa usually went for coffee, or something at the drug store. If I looked a little neglected, she would invite me to the drug store for a malted milk made by Annabelle, or Glen, or even Mrs Horsman, who owned the store before Glen Shelver took it. I was in a little bit of heaven sipping that tall treat, with leftover poured into my glass. She was a gracious and wonderful example of generosity. There was not alot of money going on in those days, and every free goodie was most appreciated.
Another of my memories was when she invited several of us “town kids” to visit her parents farm, and watch what “farm kids” did for excitement. Mr and Mrs Carlson showed us about, let us ride some of their horses, with supervision by your Aunt Ursella. I got on a horse bare back, behind her, and we took off on a dead gallop straight west to that willow grove which was close to the intersection of no. 3 and the east west road I think has been referred to as cigarette, or snoose or cigar corner. When we did the fast hard turn back to the barn yard, I nearly came off, but managed to firm up the grip I had around her and she laughed it off. She showed town kids what it’s like out there, and did it with alot of class. The visit included a typically delicious lunch for everyone. Mr Carlson was busy with the stock the whole time, but managed to introduce us to the animals and treat us with his hospitality.
Now, one more thing I remember, is that before your Dad and Mother were married, my Dad volunteered our taking care of a dog which Don Aird owned while he made a trip somewhere. It was for a few days. It was a big dog, which was like a Bull Mastiff, or Newfoundland breed, and that dog was bigger and heavier than me, but I spent hours with him in our yard, where he was tied to our outdoor pump. When anyone or any critter came into the yard, that dog would get into a defensive crouch and start barking and showing teeth. Never did to me, so I’d tell all my friends happening by that it was a one man dog, and I was that man. I think I’d impress my pals by saying that the dog could pull out that pump and chase you if you do something funny.
So, these remembrances may add a little to your understanding of what a fine heritage you have. Don and Gary, Thanks for the memories. Bill Hosmer
