We invited Mr. Bond to attend the 50th. He responded with the below note:
Dear Carmen and Gerry:
I appreciate your sending an invitation to
me...I feel more like a member of the class of 64 than I do my own HS
class. It would be wonderful to see everyone again....I just wish they
would all look like I picture them....when they were 17-19 years old.
I truly enjoyed my years teaching at
Toppenish. I pull out the old HS annuals and look at them often.
I know the years have not been kind to me or
Sandra and I'm sure not your class mates either.
For this reason I will decline the invitation...I just don't
want to see them any different than what I remember and picture in my mind.
50 years has been too long.
Have a great reunion..my thoughts will be with
you.
Sincerely,
Jack Bond.
