Messages From The Classmates Of 1979 Beverly Howard Thank you for the birthday wishes. ========================================== Kevin Clark Thanks class of '79'your thoughts touched my heart on my birthday =========================================== William ‘Bill’ Sharpe Can anyone remember the last time you have seen Brian Norris, voted most humorous according to the annals of the class of 1979? Following is what I believe to be his cell number. We have to inundate him with calls to get him to the next reunion. If we put enough pressure on him to plan for it, we may just see him at the "30th". I recently received his number from Joe Short and passed it on to a few classmates I have run into. If he doesn't answer be sure to leave him a message. I did miss a call from him a couple of weeks ago, but after listening to his message I see that he is still crazy! Let's get him there. ============================================== Patricia McBride I have been blessed to have my son Shaheer McBride #17 to be playing football as a wide receiver with the Phila Eagles. God is good. Very proud mom. =============================================== Bernice Swanson I have three beautiful daughters and 4 grand children (the loves of my life). I've been divorced for about 10 years now. I work for a local construction company as Office Manager/Bookkeeper. My life pretty much involves doing things with my family.

I was saddened to hear of the loss of our classmate, Elaine Purvis and most recently Pam Wilford. I will take this opportunity to put a plug in regarding handling your final affairs if you will leave loved ones behind. We all know the gravity of a loss but it is certainly magnified when we are not prepared for it. I urge you to prepare, plan and make sure you and/or your children all secure with their life insurance. If you do not have a plan let's discuss one. People don't plan to fail…They fail to plan. Consider your worth and take the first step. Let's leave an inheritance to our offspring…:-) if they deserve it. ~Love~Jack Dennis M Jackson,Sr Select Agent 6632a Frankford Avenue Philadelphia Pa 19135 Ph:215.289.5179 / Fx: 215.289.5176 ================================================================================================= Donald Johnson Thank you always for the Birthday Wishes……….

Let's plan yearly events. Pray for each other as we lose love ones and illnesses beset our classmates. 30 years is a blessing and a treasure to behold. Be Blessed until I see you again and Peace Be Upon You! ~Dennis M Jackson Sr~ ============================================================================ Bernice Swanson This site is awesome! seeing some of those faces brought "good" tears to my eyes and awesome memories to my mind! I can not make the reunion and I am so so sad about it!!!! It is my only vacation of the summer so my stay was booked awhile ago. Whoever reads this please know that my years @ Chester High were the best of my life, gosh how we didn't appreciate that as much back then. I took Mr. Davis's Law Enforcement class in vo-tec, I loved that class :0). My first year @ chester high, I was the bad kid, I was on Ms. Corso's wall of the 10 most wanted for cutting class, I wonder if anyone remembers that wall, lol. I still passed just short of honor roll, but you know even then I never took drugs, drank or even smoked, by todays standards I was a geek, back then I thought I was cool, oh but when caught I was punished for months, LOL. I would like so much to be kept posted on any, any other type events for our class, please. My life has been good since school, I've b! een blessed with three amazing daughters and 6 awesome grand children. I'm a bookkeeper/office manager for a local construction company. I married and moved away from Chester for awhile, then divorced and moved back to Chester (always my home) about 6 years now, divorced for 13. I am active on a committee to erect a Memorial at the site of the old Wade Dump there at the base of the Barry Bridge.Our committee is "The Chester Toxic Fire of 1978 Memorial Committee". My Dad was a member of Franklin Fire House and one of the first responders to that fire, he died from Cancer right after my graduation, Nov 1979. The cancer was a result of exposure to the illegal chemicals dumped there. It's been 30 years and a long time coming, just about "all" the first responders who fought that fire are dead and those that aren't are sick and dying, all from cancer or cancer realted issues from exposure to those chemicals. I would very much like to share with you our efforts and ask that those of our class who remember that devasting day support our cause. I am on facebook "bernie swanson" or can be reached at bernieswanson@rcn.com, some of our classmates may have also lost a family member from this event, please forward my info on so they can feel free to contact me, it is our goal to do our best to make sure "ALL" are remembered. Also I ask my class o! f 1979 to join me in support and prayer that this monument becomes a reality soon. God Bless and THANKS so much for all you're hard work on this page and the reunion itself!Class ======================================================================================== William Sharpe I had a great time at the 30th! It was good to see some people that I had not seen since leaving the hallowed halls. Special thanks to Brian (Gino) Norris, Joe (Colemeen) Coleman, Maurice (Joe Shape) Short. We convened in a suite at the Airport Residence Inn the Friday before the reunion after leaving Harrahs. It was just like old times with the brothers reminiscing way back to the days of “Booker T” and “Dewey Mann”. I was waiting for the security to show up at the door at anytime to throw us out. Those brothers are MAD!!! We went on until 5 in the morning. I had to keep this under wraps for fear that the Class of ‘79 would have been “all up in the house”! It was a great weekend, and I look forward to seeing you all again for the Class of ’79 50th birthday party…..hint …hint…hint….let’s work on it. Much love to all. William (Bill) Sharpe =============================================================================================== Karl Briddell Hey Guys, I just wanted to say thank you for all of the hard work that was put into reunion. my wife and I both had a great time at 30th Reunion. And it was great seeing everyone................................... Karl Briddel ================================================================================================= Chauntae Stevens It was really good to see everyone at the 30 year reunion! Wow where did the time go. May God bless each and everyone of you! |
