Another Brother Class Photo

COON RAPIDS ENTERPRISE - THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2019 PAGE 5

We are down to the final two weeks of our series featuring elementary class photos from the 1956 Rambler yearbook. This photo shows the second graders who ended up
being members of the CRHS Class of 1966. Unfortunately, the yearbook did not identify the first five kids in row three. This is our best effort. First row: Sandra Brannan, Kathy
Peterson, Diane Thorn, Sarann McCurdy, Connie Olesen, Beverly Christensen, Kathy Clayton, Shirley Boston. Second row: Doug Duncan, Pat Olesen, Danny Cretsinger, Doug
Slaybaugh, Diana Pfeiffer, Trudy McCamley, Ken Ayers, Steve Smouse Third row: Marty Shirbroun, Sue Coffman, Twila Anderson, Marilyn Smouse, Molly Hazelhoff, Gordon
Gymer, Claudia Thomas, Steve Kult, Marcia Betts, Jim Ford. Fourth row: Mike Hazelhoff, Jody Norem, Dave Mozena, Tommy Kepple, Tom Smith, Phyllis Stenstrom, Richard
Emery, Charles Chase, Terry Augustus. The teachers were Mrs. Dailey and Miss Stotler.

Memories from 1956

Memories from 1956

We are so fortunate to have a hometown newspaper that not only continues to publish local news weekly to this day (starting in 1881), but also has a 100 years ago, 75 years ago, 50 years ago, etc. page that also republishes photos from past years every week on that page. I've shared some of these, here before, but today I have two more that are such fun.

It is the Coon Rapids (Iowa) Enterprise - https://www.coonrapidsenterprise.com/

We get it weekly, electronically, for $25 a year. What a bargain!! ;-)

The last two weeks have had my brother, Jim, and Nancy's brother, Al Bolger, in their 5th and 6th grade class photos from 1956. Enjoy...I sure do.
