Hi everyone,
I received this message from Jeff Diefendorf a while back. He wanted me to post it for you all to see so here goes. Please respond to him as you wish.
Because of my mental dementia problems, it is really unlikely that I could travel from Maine to Albuquerque for a new reunion event. My brain now is seldom recognizing people and remembering names, even if the people are recent friends or colleagues, including those from the University of New Hampshire department of history where I taught for 40 years. It is also hard for me to see old friends from Stanford, where I had go to college after leaving Albuquerque.
Since I was once elected to head the Highland High School Class (our Junior year), some have suggested that I return to a reunion event, but I cannot do that very easily now.
Personally I went to Bandelier Elementary with Jeff for six years. When we started at Woodrew Wilson, I would ride my bike to his house and then we would ride to Mike Mauneys. There Jim Hampson would meet us and we would all ride together. It seemed like a hundred miles but I think it was only one mile!
