Fifty classmates from the Kennett Class
of 1967 gathered on Saturday afternoon, September 15 to catch up on 40 years of
life’s experiences. The reunion was held at Tom and Joleen Heiervang’s farm on
Brandywine Drive in West Chester. Tom was the former exchange student from
Norway with the class in their senior year.
The Reunion committee involved included Elaine Fiore, Dee
Pesce, George Barber, Donna Maraldo, Margaret Felicetti (Pennington) and Maureen
McCauley. The committee wanted to plan an informal gathering to promote lots of
opportunities to mingle and enjoy. Each classmate contributed to the buffet with
a fabulous array of salads, desserts, appetizers and the Heiervangs’ arranged
for a pig roast to be included.
Former students came from near and far literally.
“Out-of-towners” included Karen Yarnell (Florida), Gwynee Unruh (New Mexico),
Greg Woods (California), Galen Goss (Virginia),
Jim Wayne (Arizona), Linda Tice (California), Tom Heiervang
(Norway), Eric Roberts (Maryland), and Jackie Fletcher (Oklahoma).
Once again, Kennetteer yearbooks were passed around for
signing. The crisp Autumn afternoon was the perfect setting to gather and catch
up and reconnect. The group enthusiastically agreed to meet again – and not to
wait another 15 years!!
