| Sorry I missed the reunion, I already had plans to be out of town that weekend. I would have loved to see everyone although I'm not sure anyone would really remember me. I was always kind of quiet and reserved. If there are pictures of the event I would love to see them posted so I could see everyone (with captions hopefully so I would know who I was looking at). I have enjoyed reading about everyone here and was really humbled by the memorial page. There are just too many of us who have already passed away. Everyone take care and I hope to see some pictures soon. | |||

Loved the reunion! Thanks so much to the hard working reunion committee. You did a great job! It was wonderful seeing so many people that I haven't seen in years. The memorial table broke my heart but I'm glad it was there. Hopefully we can do another one soon. Everyone take care & be safe! |

It was great seeing everyone Saturday evening. I was really nervous about going with fear that I wouldn't remember. But to my surprise so many things came back to me. It's sad that so many years have passed and we have gone our separate ways. I was sad to see the memorial table. Thank you Irma you are the best for getting this reunion underway. I want to also thank the committee for all of their hard work. Next time I will help if needed. I promise! The name tags were great...that was a big plus for me. I didn't know a lot of you until I saw your name tag and picture then I remembered. In my mind I guess I still thought of everyone the way they were in 73. I missed seeing some of my classmates that didn't come. Maybe next time. Again Loved that reunion. For the ones that didn't come.....you should have.

What a great time Saturday night. I reconnected with so many people yet didn't even get to speak to so many more. We really need to do this every year. There just wasn't enough time. Although many of us did end up at Indigo Joe's afterwards. Hmmmm. Maybe we ought to just plan to meet up there sometime soon. |

What a blast!!!!! Thanks Reunion Committee. It was really great seeing and trying to recognize freinds from so many years ago. The picture name tags was a super idea (hated mine but loved to see the others) It brought back a lot of memories. I was happy to see that our class looked so healthy and prosperious. Another one in 5 years is a great idea. Congratulations to all those that attended and let's see if we can make it bigger next time around. Be good |

First of all, thanks to the committee for all the hard work you put in for the reunion. I had a wonderful time, enjoyed seeing everyone, and hope we do it again soon!!! Yesterday I was kind of sad because I had looked forward to it for all these months, and then it was over, almost like a wedding or some other big event you plan on for a long time, and then it ends before you want it to. I really enjoyed seeing all the classmates I had gone to school with since elementary days. It brought back so many memories for me. It was a special time for me. |

The only thing that could have make it better would have been to have it last all week-end...I think! I heard so many nice comments about everything, I think it was enjoyed by most. I saw a lot of laughter which I know some are aching on the inside today. I've got a few pictures which i will post as soon as we can. I really enjoyed seeing everyone and would like to renew some old friendships and maybe even stare a couple of new ones ; )...oh yeah...you know you you are! Hope to see many of you soon.

I have never attended any of the reunions that we previously had, so I'm looking forward to this one. Thanks to Irma.and her committee. I was in BOE in my Senior year of high school (school half day/work half day). Mr. Clodfelter placed me at I.L. Long Construction Co. and I'm still working there. My husband, Don (Parkland'72) and I have two sons, Jonathan (age 27- EFHS'98) and David (age 24-EFHS'01). We have been married for 33 years and still live in Kernersville. Jonathan just finished serving 6 years in the Army. He is married and has a 14 month old son-Jackson. David just joined the Army last July. He is married with twins on the way. I think it's going to get very busy for Grandpa and Grammy. I look forward to seeing everyone soon! |

Wow! Thanks you everyone for easing my anxieties over not recognizing ANYONE! It's great to read everyone's tribulations & triumphs! As a proud Eaglette who attended every single football game in HS...I somehow never truly understood what a "first down" was! I've come a long way baby & now a major NFL fan & ACC of course! Go Carolina Panthers. I met my husband Rob @ UNCG & I have been married for 30 yrs. We've lived in Charlotte 27 yrs. My 28 yr old daughter Ashley followed my footsteps in nursing. & will finish grad school this spring from UNC as a nurse practitioner. My 24 yr old son Brandon also from UNC in photojournalism. I'm counting on your help @ the reunion. My limited memories include Mrs. Brown's latin classes, frolicking on the band bus from ballgames (we won't go there!) Mrs. Ross' dreaded anatomy classes. The wrestling team spitting to meet their weight class! Our senior picnic on the hill, And of course those Eaglette routines! See you there. |

My daughter, Nerissa and her husband live in Monroe, NC and after graduating from Wingate she decided she wanted to be a hairdresser. My son, Emory is a free spirit right now and is living in Red Lodge, Montana working as a bartender and snowboarding any chance he can. It has been over 1 1/2 years since I have seen him and I miss him so much. Everyone sounds so excited to see each other again.
