Greetings from Hong Kong!! I am delighted to see our home page from this long distance.

Tyler Smith notified me and I have been trying to post a note for some time. I am working for a large global banking organisation. I'm Still in financial services, with involvment in fund management, mutual funds and insurance.

My wife of 30 years (Charla Cunningham from Hollis, the other Tigers 1962) and I have been here for 8 years now. We would love to hear from you when time permits.

We travel a great deal, so don't be put off if we are late in responding. We will answer all!!

I am a 1963 graduate of MHS and after much searching have found this home page.

I am currently living in Reno, NV where I have been since 1966, with residency in India, & Australia mixed in. I have 4 children the oldest being 24 and she was born in Western Australia. I have been married for 25 years on this May 29 to Jude O'Connor a Reno Native. My youngest child is 13.

My sister sent me the Mangum Star with Internet information. Since I spend a lot of my free time on the web and using e-mail I would like to hear from any Alumni.

Dear Friends at MHS. It is great to be able to access the Web Page. I am a member of the class of '44 and live in Fort Smith Arkansas. My wife Wanda and I visit Mangum quite often. My father (Gordon Lockerd ) died on last Thanksgiving day. I may not visit quite as often now but we still have the farm north of Mangum and will still have reason to visit.

I am planning to be there next week for the reunion. Hope to see lots of you people there.

My name is Gina Plumlee Fleming of the class of 67. My e-mail address is molly@ionet.net.

I teach highschool business at Newcastle, Oklahoma. My daughter Lindsay Blake is graduating this year from the class at Newcastle and will be going to OSU this fall just as her dad and I did.

Won't be at alumni this year as will be going on vacation that day, but next year will be our 30th year so planning on being there. If you happen to see Blake Bratton or Jane Travis or Shirley Berry tell them Hi for me, old old classmates of mine!

Hello from the capital city (OKC that is). Just wanted to drop a note and further display my internet participation. I hope that all of you are enjoying the alumni homepage. Those of us involved in the process have really been excited with the progress.

Just a short line about Tara and myself for the record I suppose. Tara has a degree in physical therapy from the University of Oklahoma and is currently working in acute care with Columbia/Presbyterian in OKC. I teach junior high science in the Choctaw/Nicoma Park District, just outside the city. I have been teaching for 7 years. The first three years were spent in the Hobart Public Schools and the last four have been with Choctaw/Nicoma Park.

We are getting excited about the summer months. I am currently working with OCS (Oklahoma Climatological Survey) on a classroom research project (Earthstorm) that will take us to Scotland for a summer trip. I am presenting a paper on meteorology in the classroom at the International Meeting on Popular Meteorology and Oceanography in Education to be held in Edinburgh. I think this will be a lot of fun and Tara is ready for a vacation. E-mail us at rcoffman@ionet.net or send a note to mhs@tanet.net.

J. Tyler and Billie Smith live in North Bonneville, WA. 98639. Tyler teaches in Corbett, Oregon. Tyler and Billie were married 21 Dec. 95 in Long Beach, CA. The marriage was officiated by Sue McCoy, class of 61. Billie and Tyler will be home for the alumni.

Tyler is a social studies teacher and head football coach at Corbett High School in Corbett, OR. Corbett is located 22 miles east of Portland, OR.

Wow! I cant believe this. Never thought MHS alumni would have a web page. Looks great! & cool tiger too.

Anyways, I live with my wife of 10 years & 8 yr.old twins ... yes, I said twins in Summerville, SC (close to Charleston & the beach) :). I am presently attending college to obtain a degree in Computer Technology w/ a specialty in Telecommunications, will be finished in approx. another year ..Yeah!

My wife Paula has been employed at a local manufacturing plant for the last 7 years. Our kids, Dana & Dane are going into the fourth grade next year & are very active in chorus, ballet, tap, & computers. When we are not working, going to school etc.. we go to the beach & spend as much time with the kids as possible.

Gotta go for now but would love to hear from old friends, classmates or whoever just feels like reminiscing about the good ole days in Mangum

I'm Ray Byrom, class of 1969 and I never thought I'd be posting an internet message to fellow MHS Alumni!

I have been living in Las Vegas for the last 11 years. Now settled in with my wife Ruanne and daughter Erica. My older daughter, Traci, graduated MHS in 1994. My Mom, class of 19??, and brother Bob '74 still live in Mangum so I have an excuse to come back ever so often.

I plan to contact some of the ex-Mangumites listed and welcome E-mail from anyone. I can be reached at:

Hello, from Jane Paden Collard, alive and well in Oxford, Ohio. My e-mail is jccollard@aol.com I am really a novice at this computer correspondence, but since I am even worse at letter correspondence, I thought I’d give it a try.

I’m looking forward to the class reunion in 1997. It will be Jodie’s (Jodie Paden, class of 1967) 30th and my 25th. We are planning to meet there in ‘97.

I have two children, Lissa, age 6 and Jake, age 4. They are eager to see where Mom grew up. I keep in touch with Mary Jane McDaniel Burgess and a few others, but I wonder how everyone else is. Where’s Patsy and Morgan, and Ricki, and Gwen? Has anyone got any news on Patsy Falk?

Well, I need to go get kids ready for bed. If anyone is out there, drop me a line. Thanks for the idea, Jimmie!

I live in Georgetown Texas with my husband of 17 years, Michael Morton. We have no children, but we do have 4 dogs and 2 cats: Gus, Rowdy, Sister Dixie, Hill Country Honky Tonkin' Rita Ballou, Greenie, and Moses.

I work for the Lower Colorado River Authority (wholesaler of electricity) as a project manager of transmission construction. I manage the building of substations and transmission lines.

In every spare second of my free time, I buy and sell antiques and collectibles. My home page for antiques is called The Antique Explorer and is at: http://www.eden.com/~antexp Come browse! Lots of neat stuff. I also actively buy, e-mail me if you have something wonderful.

My beloved husband (and all around wonderful guy), Michael is Manager of Regulatory Affairs for Carbomedics. They make heart valves and heart valve components.

Great to see MHS on the 'Net

E-mail me at smorton191@gnn.com or smorton@lcra.org. I'd love to hear from you.

Love your home page. A great idea! I never use snail mail anymore--email is too, too easy. I haven't been back to visit in quite a long time, but I try to keep track of things going on in Mangum.

I graduated in 1963 (impossible! so I want to say hello to all my former classmates. I live in Norman and work at Central Mid-High School as the Library/Media Specialist. I generally spend my summer vacation in a small coastal village in Italy. I may retire there. Just a few more years of hard work.

In the meantime I cruise around on my motorcycle, collect old radios and eat pasta. Would love to hear from old friends on the net.

Regards,

Juanita Powers Redden

I'm with the class of '50.....Hi, Linda! Can't make it this year, but will send in my dues.

Wayne & I traveled for 8 years. Mother's health started failing, so we had to come back and care for her. She's still going strong from the neck up! Wayne retired from office in '86, but when we came back to Wichita Falls...he couldn't stand it, so he went back to school and got his realtors license and is working with Gold Coat Realtors Century 21. He loves it. Guess that's the politician in him!

I'm still writing & researching now & then. Taking care of mother & leaving my door open to 6 grandchildren doesn't give me much time for anything else.

I have a lot of pictures from the '40's , but no scanner. Sounds like everyone is doing a great job with the association. Give everyone in the Class of '50, a big HELLO from me. Let me hear from you.

Love & Prayers,

Jan Willard Wiggins

I believe this platform will provide an easier way of communicating back and forth with class mates. I hope this e-mail finds everyone well.

The Kingery family lives and has lived in Norman, OK for twelve years now. We have a 10 year old son and a 6, almost 7, year old daughter. Their names are Paul Tyler and Molly Marissa Kingery. Both Paul and Molly are very active in Soccer. Paul is a sweeper/fulback and plays for the Washington Shooters outdoor team and the Norman Shooters indoor team. I coach both teams. Molly plays soccer for the Kennedy Dolphins outdoor team and very fast. Molly is tiny, but quick. She loves to put the soccer ball in the net and does so often. Paul will be trying out for the "classic" Norman Celtic traveling squad in July of this year. Wish him well. He really is a quality player/defender.

Kheva is the Financial Secretary for Bethel Baptist Church in Norman. She has been with Bethel going on 12 years. She has a great deal of responsibility managing a $500,000 budget. I own a business, Health Care Associates, Inc. We staff hospitals, Nursing Homes, and other healthcare providers through-out the state of Oklahoma. We are in approx. 45 facilities in Oklahoma. It seems as though we work around the clock with work, school, three soccer teams and church activities.

Both Paul and Molly came to know the Lord and were saved within the last two years. We are very proud of them. Paul will be on national television in May of this year. The national weather service in Atlanta came to Oklahoma this week to film a documentary on severe weather and tornados. They chose Oklahoma because of the high volume of tornados. The visited the Severe Weather Lab in Norman and visited Washington Elementry School. They chose Ms. Neals fourth grade class to inverview several students and Paul was one of them chosen.

Oh well, enough about us. Send us mail and let us know how you are doing and what you are doing, where you live etc...

Sincerely,

David, Kheva, Paul & Molly Kingery
