Just received the notification for the Beaver Bash 2000. I was in the class
of 1965, but went to California for college and have lost touch with my class
mates. There was one great reunion -- the 20th or 25th -- I can't remember.
I was voted "Least changed" which I elected to take as a positive.
Leslie Ahern won "Most changed" and she looked great. Wondering
whether there will be people from the class of '65 at the reunion. If so,
let me know what's happening.
I just heard from Craig Farnham who still lives in Scottsdale. Would love
to hear from others. I have lived in Europe and on the East Coast since 1969
when I left college in California, but I do get back to Scottsdale about once
a year on business. Changed a lot, but it is still hot. Love to hear from
old friends.

Go Beavers - went to Scottsdale High 61-64, moved half way through my junior
year so missed graduating with my class. It was so exciting reading this website.
Alot of names sound familar, like Brian Sheedy, and I had a few good nights
at pajama parties at Lynn Sutherland's house. I was part of the Scottsdale
Singers with Mr. Eisle, also the girl's group, was understudy for Addo Annies
role in "Oklahoma", in 63 production. I'm looking for my best friend
at that time (we were always together) Holly Decker. She moved about 63 and
went to Arcadia High, later she married and I lost track of her. If anyone
know where she might be I would appreciate some contact. Also have many fond
memories of the 63 class in general who lovingly took me under their wing
when I was a freshman, like, Todd Miller, my hero in Oklahoma who rehearsed
many a time with this star struck girl and who went to prom with me when I
asked him out to the Sadie Hawkins Dance that same year. Also, whatever became
of Tom Gunnison, and Rusty Mueller, part of my sweet 16 memories?????
I am married, happily for the past 17 years to a great guy have 2 grown children
of my own and 2 step children and a total of 5 grand kids (the grandchildren
we claim together). Live in Fresno, CA and work for a Stock Brokerage firm.
Please contact me if you know any of the above or remember me - I would love
to hear from any Scottsdale Graduates. I also have a brick, got one back at
the demolition when I did run into my old friend Bob Benne and he gave me
a tour of the city - what a change!

I just heard about the All Class Reunion from one of the two SHS grads I still
know. I see that there have been two class of '65 reunions but I have been
in "the land of the lost" and did not know about them. I've been
living in the eastern half of the country since 1966. Well ,to be more exact:
Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Middlebury (CT.), and Columbus, Ohio. We moved around
for many years as I pursued a career in television broadcast production. We
finally found a home and raised a family in Columbus, Ohio where I own a Video
and Interactive media company. We make a little money and have a whole lot
of fun! I still have family in Arizona and visit them once or twice a year.
Looking forward to renewing some old friendships. Will any of us recognize
each other?

Hello,
I found your site through my long time friend and fellow SHS graduate,
Bob Berrier. It's been a long time since SHS for me (class of 1965),
but I would enjoy hearing form others in the class. Briefly, after
graduating from ASU with a chemistry degree (thank you Mr. Bryant) I
became a physician, specialized in Radiology, and returned to Phoenix to
practice. These years produced some personal growth experiences such as
divorce, remarriage, ultimately a high level of personal happiness,
modest professional success, and some interesting world travel. I have a
17 year old daughter in her senior year at Arcadia, and a 28 year old
step-son, now married to another physician. After 23 years of
successfully practicing here, I've been considering more and more what
else there is out there to try while I'm still healthy and capable-
maybe beyond medicine. Suggestions, invitations, similar experiences to
share, or correspondence will reach me through: jcf84@impulsedata.net.
Thanks for the opportunity to chat.

It was great to come across this website and memories of the past. Spanish class with Mrs. Baker (oh my!), chemistry with Mrs. Clark, amateur radio with Mr. McGirr, Astronomy with Mr. Solem, and more. I live in Tucson but went back to Scottsdale once and shot the "ruins" before the final destruction. My favorite moment was looking into the windows at the top of the stadium and seeing the buckled floorboards in the gym. Revenge is sweet!

What a great website! I've just spent the last hour going through it, with
my yearbook open. I know I look the same and I'm sure the rest of you do as
well. Boy, memory fades, eh?
Since graduation, I cancelled that planned summer of '65 trip to France because
I was "in luv", cancelled plans to attend Whittier College in CA
(same reason), attended ASU for 3 years, then married the object of that "luv",
Rob Watts, class of '63. We lived in California from '68 to '74, then moved
to Seattle. Still here, he's not. Divorced about 15 years or so ago. Very
happily married to a Seattle guy. Mama of 2 kiddies - Rob, 29 and Stephanie,
28. Granny of 1. Life is so good.
Those who remember me and the many stupid, but oh so fun things we did in
our senior year will get a laugh when you hear I'm now a high school counselor
married to a high school principal. I'm perfectly suited for the job. Nothing
they do or say surprises me and no one gets away with anything. I now confess
to Mr. Planeta that I was part of the group who painted the school just before
graduation - parking lot, garbage cans, a few walls. I even have pictures
of some of us posing with our paint brushes. We swore we would never tell
and lied like mad when questioned, but after 35 years, let him try to give
me Saturday School or whatever they did then. Every year when I take part
in our graduation as a "respected faculty member", I am reminded
how we hid food and cigarettes under our gowns and actually ate and smoked
during the ceremony. Were we nuts or what??
My parents are still living in AZ and recently we went to the National Cemetery
north of Scottsdale. Am I wrong or is that near the site where we used to
go slurp Colt 45s and sloe gin fizzes in the dark desert, girls?? Yikes.
By the way, the girls at my high school look and dress just like we did in
"65 - cotton shifts, triangle scarfs, madras, sandals. Even hairstyles
are similar. I feel so at home shopping at Nordstroms now.
So very sad to hear of Dayle Hambro's death about 3 years ago. She was my
first and last link to SHS. I really miss hearing from her now and then. She
was sooo inlove with David Ledbetter, of the Vibratos. Remember that we couldn't
wear pants to school? Dayle and I wore shorts which were sold as underwear,
sort of like today's bike shorts, in orange and black stripes for school spirit,
concealed under rain coats, like no one would think it was weird we were wearing
a rain coat all day. But we thought we were getting away with something. She'd
be having a ball with the upcoming reunion and will be missed by many.
Pat Smith had the hottest, no air conditioning, black Corvair that we used
to zoom all over town in, pre-Ralph Nader.
Would love to hear from Sandy Loos, Sandy Straud, Linda Hudson, Peggy Taylor,
Carole Westcott, Annie Augustine, Karen Horan, Gayle Jones, Julie Uren.
Don't think I can make it to the reunion, but I'll be thinking of you.

What a surprise to find this on the internet. So many times I have wondered
what happened to the class reunions. I didn't know how to get in contact
with anyone. My name is Debbie Murray, ( Krill -- back then) I graduated
in 1965 from Scottsdale High School.
I live in Lake Dallas, Texas between Denton & Lewisville about 20 miles
from Dallas. I have 2 girls: Stacie and Stephanie, one grandson Blake who
is 11 and a grandaughter Rylee who is 4. My Husband is Jerry, retired from
Hunt Oil Company in Dallas. We have been full time
snowbirds the last 2 1/2 years but we decided to buy another house this year.
It got a little crowded in a RV with 2 dogs. We moved by my younger daughter
Stephanie and her husband Rob. Jerry was getting bored retired so he went
back to work at his leisure. Working when he wants to. We have lived in Texas
since 1980.
Does anyone know the whereabouts of Pam Padon. I have searched for her through
the years with no luck.
Sorry I have missed past reunions, I bet it was alot of fun seeing people
from school.
Hopefully I will be able to attend future ones.

Your quest for fellow alumni is both admirable and exciting.
Though not an alumnus, my heart still belongs to SHS, having been an
English teacher there from 1965 to 1974.
Your fellow alumni may be sad to learn that Luther Stewart, long-time
English teacher at SHS, died shortly before Christmas.
I will monitor your site from time to time to learn what is happening
in the lives of my former students.

Hi, everyone. I have finally leaped into the current century and have email.
I'd love to hear about
what you're doing, as I have been out of touch What is this all class reunion
thing? We don't do our own any more?
I guess organizing it all is tons of work and time. Someone please explain.
Here's
the fairly short version of my
life since '65. Married, 1 child, divorced, married again and moved to Hawaii
in '70. Another daughter, did lots of
volunteer work, went to college (finally) got a degree in journalism, moved
to London with my 12 year old younger
daughter for 1 year, returned to Honolulu and divorced Dennis. Meantime, my
older daughter had grown up, married and
had 2 boys. Beth now has a third son and finally a daughter.Beth is 39 and
Lia is 29. Both of my girls live here, Beth
teaches and Lia works for her dad. I am still an EA in a resource class for
4th and 5th graders, in a great school with
wonderful teachers.
I have been living with Tay (you may remember him from
our 30th reunion}. He's still a great guy,
sells insurance, builds and refurbishes koa (Hawaiian wood) canoes and paddles
an awful lot. We travel when we can, I
walk and do weights most a.m.s, love to hike, check out art around town,
play with gkids and enjoy living in a place with
beautiful weather and water all year long.
That's it in a big nut shell..... Anyway, my email address is cmahoney65@yahoo.com .
Love to catch up. Much Aloha Cindy

Brian Sheedy (alias Smith) 1962 - 1966
Well, actually it was 1962 - December 1965; I spent the second half of my
senior year at Santa Monica High, but returned to Scottsdale and started at
Mesa Community College until that was interrupted by the Vietnam War. I
didn't go to Vietnam, I came to Germany, where I've been for over 32 years.
I've been working for John Deere in Europe for 21 years after getting a BA
and Masters degree in Business Mgmt.
I returned to Scottsdale with my family (wife Marion, daughters Maurah, 13,
and Maureen, 10) for a short visit at the beginning of this month, Sept.
1999. It blew my mind. SHS gone. Laloma gone. I used to live in an adobe
house with pool in front and horse stables and corral on Orange Ave. Not
only was the house gone, but even Orange Avenue doesn't exist anymore. In
the summer of '66 one job I had was grounds keeping at Fashion Square, I
cleared off the tumble weed from the empty lot next door before ground was
broken for expanding the shopping center. I should have asked for more
money. Wow, that place is monstrous now. One other place I lived was an
apartment on Woodmere Fairway, it's now a Motel, but really nice, with
swimming pools in front of every building. One of the last places which is
still there and hasn't changed was 5902 N. 86th St.
At Laloma and as a freshman and sophomore at Scottsdale High I went by an
alias, Brian Smith, had a Honda with a pretty loud megaphone. But after
returning from an unsuccessful try at a new life in Denver, I used my real
name Brian M.J. Sheedy from then on.
I was the first guy ever allowed to grow a full beard at Scottsdale High.
Was driving a pretty hot '62 Impala that got me some trophies at Beeline
Dragway.
Anyone remember dancing and skateboarding in front of the record shop next
to Lute's Parmacy on 1st Street after school '64 & '65? Or the snowball
fight that got some of us arrested (a stray snowball hit a tourist in his
car)? Midnight drag races on Shea Blvd? Friday Night dances at the
National Guard Armory (goin' to fight to watch'm dance?)? Or some pretty
wild parties out in the desert (the well/windmill)? Who was in my car when
I had a blow out at 100 mph on the way back from the river in '64? Could it
have been Peggy or Kay or Sherry ... and the guys, I think there were at
least 6 of us? Who used to hang out at those coffee shops? The one at
Fashion square is still there, the Greasy Spoon (we used to call it) on
Scottsdale Rd. I couldn't find.
Thanks to this web site, I think I have found Peggy Potts, Sandy Tumas (and
Tom?) Nancy Lehr and Ginni Goetz, and hope I can get in touch with Kay
Tadlock, Sherry Smith, Dana Thompson and Judy Grate and maybe more through
them.
Anybody know what happened to Dan Murphy (his father ran the Time Shop, 5th
Ave.), Van Swenson, Dave Onifer (Army '66), Buster Smith, Bill Tate (Army
'66), Creag Warner, Linda Riley, Linda Hatcher, Candy Miller, Pat Wald,
Rowena Sydney, Mike Miller (Ventura, CA '65), Roni Moorhead, Chuck White,
Nancy Lehr, Lynn Sutherland, Andy Willits, Steve Lester, Tom Tessmer, Linda
Grannis, Tim Kyllo, Sue Stockett, Ned Warren, Nancy Houze, Cassy Hosseman,
Chuck White, Rey Rehtmeyer, Buddy Webb, Genny Goetz, Carol Getz, Joan
(Rubicam) Klein, Cathy O'Byrne, Trish Eyrin, Buddy Webb, Ray Shawn, Sandi
Loos? I've got more.
Well I've got more, but I don't want to hog anymore space than I have
already.
