Which is no surprise since all of us chronologically gifted Wildcats are living proof of that!
I wasn't there, but judging from the pictures Jerry forwarded to me this year's Valentine edition of our luncheon was one hoot and holler for the books.
Jerry didn't go into all the details, but I'm assuming that Gene Moore won the "good looking legs" contest and the Valentine Candy eating contest was a tie....shared by all the attendees.
Here's Jerry's report:)
By Jerry Gaudet
CHS’54 celebrated Valentine’s Day with good times at Jimmies. Mary Burnett gave us table decorations appropriate for the festivities…and most were edible. We’ll check this table later…
As we were gathering, L to R, Vic Brawley, Gene Moore, Gene’s friend Shirley Burns, Sylvia Brawley, Beverly Smith Garmon, Sylvia Dunn Cross, Ronnie Rallis Pourlos and Gayle Barrier Austin…
Even though it was a chilly day, if you came up from Florida as Gene Moore did, you wear the state uniform…

Bee Garnon and Sylvia Cross get some one-on-one conversation before lunch |
Clockwise around the table are Mammie Goodwin Baucom, Mack Baucom, Mary Sue (standing), Lou Palomba, and Betty Rose Templeton Palomba…
Here we have, L to R, Harold Cullingford, Carolyn Cullingford, Vic Brawley, Sylvia Brawley, Pat Hill, Martin Hill, Shirley Burns and Gene Moore.
Special thanks to Mary Burnett and Ronnie Pourlos for Holiday appropriate treats…
And as you can see, we ate the whole thing, well almost…
While you may have missed this gathering, come be with us next time when we have an equally good time on Tuesday, March 13, 2012, 11:30 AM, again at Jimmies.
