Dear Edith and Committee Members of the Reunion of the BHS Class of 1958:

With great interest, I've just read your email messages and looked at the pictures of this year's 55^th reunion celebrations.  What a pleasure it is to become vicariously reacquainted with guys and gals that were such an important part of the fabric of my youth.

I am so impressed and appreciative of the work that your committee did in preparation for the event and especially with you, Edith, and all you've done for this year's reunion and the fifty-five years leading up to this event.  The many hours of love and dedication you have spent keeping up with all of us and sending us reports of alums' activities, health reports, and the loss of our classmates have been greatly appreciated.   Such dedication has made the class of 1958 remain close and special.

Thank you so very much.  What a special treasure you are to all of us.

Sincerely,

C. M. Shearer

Gene Sewell was a quality person who who always had a smile, laugh, and a great attitude whenever I saw him. He always carried himself with an air of confidence. His memory as a member of our graduating class in 1958 is very clear in my mind to this day.

Fellow classmates of the famous class of 1958. I share the well expressed sentiments of our own Professor Lester D. Langley......a learned person of letters in academia. Have often remarked to family and friends.....and even acquaintances....that in 16 years of school, I personally observed only one (1) fist fight.....that was in the 9th grade.....do not know the nature of the confrontation. It was over in 5 seconds and a bloody nose was the only damage. Never saw any person bullied or pushed around.....never saw drugs or anyone totally inebriated......obviously no drug overdose. Never knew any alcoholic parents, divorces or adults that abused spouses or children. People mostly lived their lives quietly, went to work daily and earned an honest living. As Dan says, common sense and reasonable behavior were prevalent. In many ways...."back in the day".....was better in so many ways than the values and behavior of our society in 2016. My most treasured memories of the Borger High School class of 1958 was that our classmates seemed to always be smiling and happy to see each other. Yes, we lived in a simple but wonderful time!  :)
