Comments:  Hello Msss Yvonne - Great web site you have going. I'm here in lovely San Diego and am interested in your 2009 Reunion. After looking thru the various pictures on the web site, gotta admit that 45 years certainly dimmed my memory. Not that looking 45 years older has helped any. Anyway, I'm not lost anymore (I know where I'm at), and when you send out the 209 flyer or announcement, please add me to the distribution. Would appreciate it. Over the years I picked up a nickname (Charley). Don't ask, it's a long story. Thanx.

Cheers, Charley aka Rich Gooden, Waipahu Class of 1964, from lovely San Diego

Comments:  Hi - I just stumbled onto the Google page that had the 04 class reunion pics etc...interesting stuff indeed. I was just there in mid-Dec with my wife for my first visit back to the Islands since leaving to join the Army in 1965 and then on to Viet Nam and a little bit of history - small world. I even found the high school (Waipahu) and house we used to live in at Iroquois point (formerly Naval housing). Anyway, I got a note from Pat Parmley a few years back and he's fine. Still looking for our other running mate - John LeGrande.  Would you happen to know his whereabouts? If so, please let me know. Well, take care and it was great seeing pics of both Karen Simdars and Barrie Dunlop (sp) I had a crush on both of them for years. Anyway, life goes on and I am fine. I have been blessed with a wonderful and very successful life. May yours be as well.

Comments:  Yvonne & All:  This past Saturday, 17 Feb 2007, I sat next to Roger and his granddaughter at the Ewa Federal Credit Union Annual Meeting which is held at the Ewa Elementary School's Cafeteria.  Roger's lung cancer tumor has shrunk in size considerably from what it was during our Class Reunion in Las Vegas and his granddaughter won the $1,000.00 cash grand prize.  Mike

Comments: Thank you Pearl and Herschel Esperas for planning a fun evening for us and our classmates at HMC on Monday, Nov. 6th. I had such a fun evening with all of you!!! And, yes, my husband Bill enjoyed himself as well and had fun talking with you, Evelyn.  It was wonderful to see those of you from the Vegas reunion last month and an extra special treat to visit with those I haven't seen since graduation...like Dennis Unciano, Hilario (Beno) Ursua, Roy Suzuki, Stanley Takiguchi, and Sharon (Takiguchi) Higa.  That evening was an enjoyable respite from some very stressful family business I am dealing with here in Hawaii.  Thank you for your kindness and sweet spirit! With a grateful, appreciative heart and much love. Mahalo Nui Loa, Yvonne

Comments: Greetings to Class of 1964. My name is Jane (Doi) Yap and I found the wonderful web site. It is wonderful seeing all of the photos. I have been living in Oregon for 31 years and retired in 2002 from the Portland Public Schools. I was dismayed that my name was not even on the missing classmates list. Remember how hard we worked on the class play "Teahouse of the August Moon" with Michael and Franklin? Hope to see all of you at the next reunion. Please put me on the found classmates list. Thank you.

Comments:  It's been a week now and still talking about the wonderful and fantastic time Pearl and I had in Vegas. Committee did a great job, thanks, Conrad and Jan, Larry and Bea, Carolyn, Ken, for a well planned reunion. Aloha, Hersch

Comments:  Mahalo Nui Loa - to the Committee - You all did a great job - all the planning and hard work you put into it, was greatly appreciated.  Sorry I missed the Sunday Brunch - would have loved to see everyone again.  See you all in "2009."  Aloha Nui Loa - Barbara

Comments:  Dear Carolyn & Committee:  Thank you for a beautiful time and the itinerary was right on, couldn't have done it any better. You have my support and I'm sure the rest had a blast. Oh, by the way did I tell you, you look so beautiful, you're like good wine, you just get better as we age. Looking forward to our next gathering. By the way, John Ynigues "Giggy" passed away when he was 50 yrs. young, he died in Germany. We all was in the 10th All Hawaii "Imua Unit" and he took a European discharge and married a German national. God rest his soul. John and I from basic training to transportation school to Germany but then got split up to different companies in Germany but still seen each other every now and then. Celia called me yesterday and gave me the bad news. At the party I had asked her to find out about John cause she knows the family. Anyway, hope to see you all again in Lost Wages classmates. Take care of yourself and may you always have enough.  All my alohas and love, Brada Panak

Comments:  Aloha mai e.  I have been receiving many, many pictures from all of you, I am so humbled, so honored, so proud, thank you, thank you....thank you so very much!!!!  You all appear to be having such a great time!! I envy you all, wished with all my heart that I could have been there, to see you, to talk story with you, just to be with you, to aloha you, to feel in my heart that wonderful, giddy feeling that these are the people I spent my very early, wonderful years with!!! However, it was not to be this time. I truly hope with all my heart that with God's help I will be there in '09!!

I am having a great time looking at the pictures, seeing all, however, I'm having a few challenges trying to recognize a few folks especially the men!! Me ke aloha pumehana, mahalo a nui loa to the committee: Larry, Carolyn, Conrad, Kenneth, Yvonne, Bea and Jeanette for an outstanding job!! You folks are just awesome, God Bless you all!!!  Take care all, Aloha ke Akua, Aloha no, JoAnn

Comments:  I, too, had a wonderful time at all events...Larry, Carolyn, Conrad and their spouses did a fantastic job in coordinating our 42nd...poor Carolyn, she was a workhorse...so much energy!  What can I say to them, but CONGRATULATIONS! Take care and keep in touch...Aloha & God Bless, Marcy

Comments:  Kudos to the committee members, you all did an excellent job for our 60th Bash Reunion.  Everything was planned well & organized, I had a great time.  It was nice to see everyone again, for those that couldn't make it, YOU MISSED OUT!  Much Aloha to Dennis Lee, Alan Hirata, Celia Narciso, Dennis Panerio, thanks to you guys I am back to drinking and smoking, had a blast.  Mahalo for all the memories & I look forward to many more to come.  A Hui Hou........Dennis Ouchi

Comments:  Upon returning from Vegas trips, I am often asked, "How was your Vegas trip, John...???" My standard reply was, "I didn't win any money, but I had fun." Thanks to all the hard work of our 60th Birthday Bash Committee, I can honestly say that not only did I have fun, but I had a GREAT time. Of course, winning a slot tournament on Saturday didn't hurt...!!!

To my fellow classmates who took the time to strike up a conversation with me, I apologize for staring at your name tags. Note to the next committee: Make those name tags bigger for us vision challenged classmates.

My wife, Roseanna, asked, "Are the committee members all former student body leaders...???" I had to do some contemplating on that question. After all I lost my high school annuals about 25 years ago and much of my memory about 15 years later. Later that night, I turned to her and said, "I can't be sure, but I don't think that the committee was made up of former student body leaders, these classmates were the fun folk of our Class of '94..oops...I mean '64."

Comments:  Hi:  Just wanted to express my thanks to all of you for a job well done. It was, I think, the best ever and I had a wonderful time (even if I was late).  My only regret was not spending time with the three of you (Larry, Carolyn, and Yvonne) to catch up and to personally thank you.  Hope to see you all in three (3) years. Again, mahalo nui loa for a job well done.  Love, Celia

Comments:  Hi! My name is Steven Muraoka. I'm a graduate of the class of '64. Aloha, Steven

Comments:  60 Years Old Birthday Celebration and Class Reunion - Wow! What a blast and a blur. I had soooo much fun with everyone. I reacquainted myself with so many classmates I haven't seen since 1964. As a whole I am not a gambler and Vegas fan but this was a trip that was well worth it. I will certainly signup again in 2009. I rented a car thinking I might take in the casinos down the Strip but I never made it there. I was kept too busy by the well planned activities and hanging out with classmates. Although I wish I didn't hang out with Celia Narciso Perreira, Dennis Ouchi and Dennis Lee as much as I did; especially Celia who rousted me out of my room when I was trying to have a rest. She said I know you are in your BBD's but get some clothes on and get down to the 777 Brew Pub.

I wish to thank all you committee members and those that donated to the celebration. You did a fabulous job. Kudos to you all.

Comments:  Aloha, Yvonne.  Kudos to you, Larry, and all those who assisted in the WHS '64 LV reunion week. Did my soul good to see old friends. You do your classmates a tremendous service.  Earl

Comments:  Aloha, Yvonne. Hope this email finds you doing well. It was great seeing you and all the gang again. I had a wonderful time and I can't wait for 2009 to see everyone again.

Did you get any photos? Are you going to put them on the web site?  Johanna

Comments:  Thank you all for a wonderful 42nd class reunion evening. Cynthia and I enjoyed ourselves. Cowboy music was super. Learned the cowboy culture at 19 yrs. old in the USA stationed in Korea when I was asked to go see the movie of Hank Williams story. Never heard of the guy, but for 25 cent movie I'll chance it. Anyway the food was ono. Talk stories with many was great. Thank you for the advance notice of the next reunion. E could you save your plastic bottles and call me for pickup. Thank you for all your hard work. Cynthia and I appreciated it. By the way I hand carried my glass painting? & it made it home. Told Barry Hanakahi that I don't do car wash for fund raising.

Comments:  Hi, Class of '64...the website is a great idea, to keep in touch with fellow classmates, and see how they are doing. I enjoyed seeing everyone in Hawaii at the 40th and looking forward to seeing everyone on the 19th. Aloha, Barbara

Comments: Hi, Yvonne and classmates.  I'll be looking forward to the next class reunion.  Just returned from Vegas last month playing senior softball tournament.  The weather was real nice. Didn't get a chance to meet up with Larry, Carolyn, or Conrad. I've been in contact with a few of our classmates here in Waipahu and the Mainland. Will remind them of the upcoming reunion. My e-mail is dafhawaii@hotmail.com   Until then, take care and hope to see you all at the next class reunion.  Aloha, Dennis Fernandez

Comments: I'm looking forward to our 60th Birthday Reunion next year...well, I guess I'll be one of the older one by that time (I will turn 61).  NO, I did not flunk; it's just that my mom had 12 children, and by the time she registered me for school, she found out I was born in 1945, not 1946...so I skipped kindergarten and went to 1st grade. I would like to donate something to upkeep our website. Please let me know to whom I should forward this to.  I am looking forward to our "reunions"...good luck to our hardworking committee! See you then...God willing.   God Bless & Much Aloha.

Comments: In exactly one year we will all be together catching up over the past 42 years.  Hawaii was great and we will continue in Las Vegas where we left off.  Keep checking the website for news as plans unfold. Let Larry and me know if you have a special talent you would like to share with the class.  Aloha

Comments:  Hi, I would like to make a donation in my father's name MILES HIRATA to help upkeep the web site, I know he gave a donation in the past, please tell me where to forward the donation to and your approximate cost to upkeep the website.  Thank You Jill Hirata

Comments:  Just looking to see if anyone has written anything yet. Oct. of 2006 seems soooooo long away. Love going to Las Vegas for any reason. I can't wait for this trip. The Hawaii trip is still in my memory. I had so much fun and loved seeing everyone. Barrie (Dunlap) Schaffer.
