Folks,

We have a friend, Loida, from Bremerton, WA that arrived last night. She will be here until the end of August. Then she will go back to Bremerton and return with her husband. They are retiring this year and plan to live their retirement years here in Cebu. Loida is from Leyte, an island near by. She visited Leyte 7 years ago. That was her last visit to the Philippines. It has been nearly 30 years since she was last in Cebu. Lots of changes.

I don’t have much today and we are headed to the mall here shortly, so I will go with what I have.

1959 Bottineau Basket Ball Braves “State Champs” Picture in 1959 & 2009 

From Neola Kofoid Garbe:  Bottineau & Minot, ND

Did I ever send this to you?  I see there are a few people in the picture your readers might know.  Dick told me Donnie Christianson was superintendent when Brenda was in school in Kenmare–at least I’m quite sure that’s how it goes.

Gary Berg, Alvin’s son, is in the picture, as is Brother Jim/Gary Wall, Loretta Neameyer’s (sp?) husband/maybe others, too, as I didn’t look at the picture very closely.  As usual, I’m looking for a certain email and saw this one.

Neola, I had not seen the 2009 photo, but I have the 1959 photo that I have also pasted below. Gary

Folks, Can we ID these folks?  Then we can compare. Gary Wall and Jim Kofoid are the only ones I recognize. Gary
