Guest Book

The Guest Book facility under our new web site hosted on myevent.com works similar to how it did under the old homestead.com hosted site. You just need to enter your name and an email address to post to the guest book. So feel free to post here as you used to do under the old site
 
The steps to making a post to the Guest Book are:
  1. Click on the "Post Comment" button.
  2. Compose your post in the resulting post composition box.
  3. Click the "Submit" button below the post composition box.
    Note, do not click again on the the "Post Comment" button. That will instead cancel your post.
Note: Guest book posts are subject to filtering which is trying to prevent spammers from posting advertisements to the site. That filtering will report that "something is missing or incorrect" and not allow you to submit your post.
  • Mainly, that filtering is trying to prevent any potential web address (URL) phrases like "xxx.com", "xxx.net" and the like from being included in the content of your post. Unfortunately, the filtering is rather agressive and reports the error in many cases where a period character is embedded within simple, non web address, character strings. Even a number reference like "3.5" has triggered the error.
  • So if you encounter a warning preventing you from submitting a post, look through the text of your post and remove or modify any web address like reference to something in words like "xxxdotcom" or "xxxdotnet". Or remove the embedded period within any other type of string that might contain one. For our number example above, the change from "3.5" to " 3 1/2" worked to avoid the error.

Just wanted to say hi to anyone who remembers me.

Unable to post message or photos.

comment by Patricia Little

This is what I did to get the notice. I used Google on my A14 Samsung phone our url came up and I used that. I used numbers, dollar sign and cents. I tried a second time with removing the numbers and typed them like I did here in my posting on our site, and it still wouldn't except it. But as you see it worked here using my computer. Hope this explanation helps, if not you can call me and we can discuss it some more. I put it up here so that others can read this and help them to pay attention in how they submit there posting. very curious. PJ

I have sad news again about a classmate that we had with us for only 2 two years at East possibly 9th and10th grade. Her name was Marion Burbal Cronin. Even though we don't have a photo of her and she didn't graduate with us Bobby Chase and myself remember her. Hope if you do remember her that you might come into the site with your remembrances if you can. There was a photo in the Telegram they had put up but I can't seem to find it at the all 3 funeral homes. I recognized her from the photo in the paper. She passed away on October 31st 2023 and November 12th 2023 her husband passed away. So sad. FLY FOERVER FREE MARION UNTIL WE ME AGAIN IN THE FINAL REUNION IN THE SKY.

comment by Patricia Little

comment by Gary Hanson

My wife Cheryl and I are planning on attending the August 1st class reunion. We will certainly be at the Friday gathering although probably not until later in the afternoon/early evening. Saturday's event is still questionable but will keep in contact through this Guest Book.

Ann said they believe that Bob suffered a stroke sometime last week and is currently uncommunicative and sleeping most of the time, hospice has been brought in to manage his care. Ann said they expect the end to come sooner than later. If I hear more, I will pass it along.

Walked by Howard Mackey's house every day on my way to school. Remember Howard as being a very nice, happy, some comical individual. Very likeable person to know. So sorry to hear of his passing but happy his suffering is over. A loss for his family, community, and classmates.

comment by Bob Marlowe

Is the 60th. going to be just one day or two?

comment by Bob Beetcher

Very nice tribute to Elyse, Sharon. It reminds me that I forgot to mention something in my earlier note about adding a Memorial for her. That is, under each Memorial there is a Tribute button which allows you to add your personal tribute/memory to the person's Memorial for others to see in the future. It's a nice place to share your fond memories of the classmate we've lost.

comment by Mark Minguey

Here's wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. This is one of my favorite times of the year. Getting together with family and friends to celebrate is what makes this time so special. It was certainly nice to see everyone at the reunion this past August. I had been 30+years since I've seen many of my classmates. In some ways it seemed like no time had passed at all, just spending time with old friends and familiar faces. Congrats on the new website, very impressive. Hoping everyone has a happy and healthy 2023.

comment by Pat Little

Hi Classmates, I have mailed out our Sixtith Class Reunion invites this morning. If you don't receive it in a reasonable amount of time, email me or post a Guest Book entry. My email address is shown in my entry under the list of classmates on the Classmates page. A big thank you to Alice, Irene, Kathy, and Margret for helping organize the reunion. A special thanks to Margret for the special snacks to feed us. Thanks, PJ

comment by Patricia Little

Dear Linda, your message brings tears to my eyes. You where a rock for me when Carla passed. I remember our conversation like it was yesterday you made it more bearable to try to accept her passing. So now I will remember those words for you. I will pray that your last days are as free of pain as possible. We will meet again in the final reunion in the sky and I will be able to give you a hug then. Bless your heart dear friend and classmate. Love and hugs PJ.

comment by Patricia Little

Now it makes sense to me, maybe its just me that is confused by the tab above not going away and not seeing the box below to add your post?????

comment by Patricia Little

Sad news classmates we have lost another classmate. Lanny Haglund passed away. I don't have any more information about his passinf at this point. Well let you all know when we get more info. Also lets send out prayers for Dale Trolson he is going into have a defibulater put into his heart in the next few days. so sending prayers out to Dale for speedy recovery and that all goes well. Dale and Bonnie didn't go out to California this year. Hugs to all of you. Love PJ

comment by Bob Jackson

Bob Hengel passed away this morning. I spoke with his ex-wife Ann, she said he passed peacefully. I believe there will be an obituary in the Mpls. Star Tribune and the Duluth News Tribune in the next few days.

comment by Dale Trolson

Looking, Bob. Thank you Patty & Bob.

comment by Patricia Little

I look forward to next couple years in keeping my fingers crossed that you will be able to attend either next year when we have the 60th. We will all be happy to see you. Thank you for the kind words about my song at the 50th reunion it was a heartfelt song that I felt fit how all of us feel about missing the friends we all miss from high school. Those are special relationships that seem to mean more the older we get. So take care of yourself and look forward to seeing you in the future. Hugs PJ

comment by Bob Beetcher

Just passing this along which came in from the Contact page: From: Joyce Hatanpa [michael7631at msn dot com] Sent: 2025/03/21 12:19pm Joyce and her husband plan to go to the Shamrock…Thank you

comment by Robert Jackson

In looking through the web site I came across the senior class pictures, I took particular interest in Bob Hengel's photo and the accompanying caption, "I'm never serious, but always gay"! Can you imagine that caption appearing in ANY yearbook today? How times have changed !!

comment by Patricia Little

So Sorry for the news about Bob Hengel prayers for him. I also have a message to Nancy Nordswen. Dale was looking into Barkers Island again for this year and I think it would be best if we keep the yearly place we meet at the same place each year to help people remember. Haven't heard from him yet but will check with him. But my suggestion Nancy is this you will need to see how many people that the restaurant can handle. And how much it would cost to rent. If it could be a place for the 2025 Reunion. How much would it cost for the class or per person. Our normal amount of people for our yearly meeting is about 30 for annual meetings and up to 60 or more for the for a mail out invitation for our 60th reunion. Thank you for your suggestion and anymore info you can find out. The other option was on the table for the Log Cabin for the 60th. If I remember correctly that cost to meet there was free but a charge for food. Not sure anymore it's been a while since we looked into the Log Cabin. Thanks again Nancy.

comment by Alyce Lenzenc

Thank you Patti and Bob for all the work you have done on this site. Hello to all you fellow EHS classmates. Looking forward to the 2023 reunion.

comment by Bob Beetcher for Pat (Wild) Franzen

Folks, the following message is from Pat (Wild) Franzen. She submitted it using the "Contact" page, which only is sent to me, the site administrator, instead of the "Guest Book" page which gets distributed out to all folks for whom we have an email address. I wanted you all to see it, so I am submitting it as a Guest Book post on Pat's behalf. Here's Pat: Such fun to see the FUN! Sadly, I do not recognize many faces. You need bigger nametags! I hope to be back for the 60th in 2025, Lord willing. I did not graduate with the Class of '65, but I was with the Nelson Dewey/Franklin crowd until Grade 11 when we moved to Iowa. I remember with great fondness my years in Superior. The North Woods remains a draw for me. I travel to the Rhinelander area with my Boy Scouts every so often. I'm an assistant scoutmaster for a female troop. I'm just now completing Wood Badge and having a blast. My granddaughter and I are honored to be OA Brotherhood and typically spend 20+ nights each year in our tents/hammocks in the forests. We earned Zero Hero last January when we spent 24 hours in the woods at Tomahawk Scout Reservation up there. It hit -7 that night. I know, I know... That's nothing to a true Superior dweller. :-) May you all enjoy a beautiful fall season. Blessings, P

comment by James Van Driessche

Hello to all my EHS class and friends. I am looking forward to the 2023 reunion. It sounds like there just might be one. I have to say I like the new format for the site, and I thank all of you who put so much work into keeping it going. You're doing a great job. Pat and I are in Thailand for a few more weeks before going to Bali for another month. If all goes as planned, I think we will be in Florida for about a month before heading North to visit family and friends. I hope all is well with everyone and you are trying to stay safe and healthy. Jim and Pat

comment by Karin (Harmer) Hanson

I, also, want to make sure to thank Larry Strack, for posting the reunion photos of this year's attendees. Some of us had great plans to be there, but something else just kept us away, but we were with each one of you 'in spirit' ....

comment by Alyce Harding Lenzen

I plan on attending both nights of the 2025 class reunion.

comment by Patricia Little

Sorry to hear that we have lost another classmate Elise Reid Banard. She passed away on October 3rd at home. She was a sweet lady. May she FLY FOREVER FREE UNTILL WE MEET AGAIN IN TH FINAL REUNION IN THE SKY.
