I am sorry to read about the passing of another high school friend--Wynona Booth.  There are not many of us left, and I am glad to remember all of my friends with good thoughts.  May the Lord bless Wynona's family that they will remember all the good times and her talents and love for them.     Dorthea Kendall, 1949 graduate.
