Comments: Hi Everyone. If you attended our 30th reunion, or contacted me about it, I sent all the emails and addresses I had collected to Kathy Anderson for the Silver Eagles Reunion, which is coming soon. If your addresses have changed since then, or you didn't leave any, you might not have received the notice. She was missing a lot of contact info for our class, but if you want to attend, it's not too late. Just go to that website for all the information. It sounds like a lot of fun. Even though I don't really feel like a "silver eagle" yet--can't deny it--time has marched on! Hope the Class of 77 has a good showing, and let's have a good time together!

Comments: Hello everyone! When I look at Cindy's pictures, I'm really sorry that I didn't attend the 30th reunion...I see folks I haven't seen in 30 years! I was at the 25th, but was in the process of moving from Beckley at the time of the 30th... Wow...It's hard to believe that it's been 30 years since we roamed the halls at Woodrow...and that we've lost so many classmates.
I'm now living in Ceredo, WV (a suburb of Huntington). I'm currently a Graduate Assistant in the Music Department (University Bands) at Marshall University, where I'm FINALLY getting that Master's Degree in Music Education! I am currently on a leave-of absence from Raleigh County Schools (after 26 years of teaching), and teaching Choir/Music at Ceredo-Kenova Middle School in Wayne County. I sing with "River Magic," a Sweet Adelines chorus based in Huntington, and have been playing oboe in area churches as well as University ensembles.
I'm separated and soon to be divorced from my husband of 22 years, and have 3 grown children: Amanda Lykens McPherson(26 and WWHS Class of 2000), an Army veteran and wife of an Army Airborne Sergeant (David McPherson) just home from Iraq--now living in Anchorage, AK; James Lykens (21 and Liberty High Class of 2004), a Jazz Studies major at Marshall University and professional bass player with "Bud Carroll and the Southern Souls;" and Jason Lykens (20 and LHS Class of 2006), a Culinary student at Marshall University and current employee at Southern Communications. I am also the GRANDMA (yep, indeedy!!!)of beautiful Kamryn Jeanette McPherson, born in June 2006.
I would LOVE to hear from my friends from the class of '77! I do miss you! (BTW, when did some of us start to look so old?????)

Comments: Just to let the class of 1977 know, Susan passed away 9/9/07. Many of you may remember that Susan had Hodgkins Disease (cancer) when she was 15 and again at 18. Although she went on to do fairly well medically and have two beautiful children (Hunter/15, Rhegan/12) she did have side-effects from all the treatment she received at that time. Susan developed breast cancer as a result of the extensive radiation she had had and this time fighting cancer was too much. Her body had taken all the chemicals one body can take.
Her children remain in Bristol TN where she and her husband had lived for 20 years.
Cindy Worley has sent in pictures from the reunion. They are here.

Comments: Hey Everyone!
Tis wonderful to see the postings and all the familiar names. I am looking forward to seeing all my classmates and catching up on three decades (where did the time go?) of life and living! I am entering my 15th year teaching at the Virginia Military Institute [Colonel,Full Professor, and Professional Mining and Geological Engineer (BS Mining Engineering - WV Tech: Master of Engineering, Geotechnical and Geological Engineering - University of CA,Berkeley: PhD Mining Engineering - Virginia Tech)]. Research, government consulting/travel, restoring a nearly 100 year old house, and a 7 year old chocolate lab (Theo) take up most of my time. Toss in carving abstract sculptures, restoring old jeeps and land rovers, competitive shooting, and banjo lessons, and there is barely enough time to enjoy a cup of tea on the porch swing ... life is good and wonderfully full! My family is still in Beckley and I return as often as possible.

We have two beautiful English Springer Spaniels, Katie and Maggie and we recently built a house in Pocahontas County where we spend most weekends. It's hard to believe 30 years has come and gone. We made it to the 20th, not sure yet if we will be at the 30th. Hope everyone is living well and that life is good to you.

I was just going through our yearbook to attach some of the names to faces. This will be such a blessing to come together. I see a lot of our classmates have gone on to Glory, so its important that we meet while we're here. How free it is to be able to come just as we are, and not focus on who was a cheerleader, who was queen, or who was a sports star, but REJOICE IN BEING HERE NOW!!

I am currently in a relationship with a wonderful man named Rob that owns a fishing charter business in Florida. I will be moving there in July to spend what is hopefully the rest of my life!!! One of my life's dreams was to someday live on or close to the shore and it is finally coming true. From our back deck we walk directly onto the sand. It is truly a dream come true for me.

Comments: Well, HELLO to the class of 1977! My sister talked me into logging on to this website...Unlike most of you, I took
a different life path. I am a Config/Proj Mgr (with a background in large mainframes) for the Dept of Defense (Army) at the
Pentagon. I've been there for many years...and was there when the plane slammed into the building. I helped to picked
the pieces up in my agency/division...returning to work the very next day! It was our goal to make sure that the computer
system was not disrupted, in spite of the fact that our world was coming down around us!
Presently, I am in graduate school...working to complete a Masters in Health Information (Medical Informatics). Something
I want to do before I turn the BIG 50!
I've never married nor had any children....But I do have five cats....with a few of them being about 17 years of age....
In closing, I wish to add that this "mode of communication" is wonderful! Since I have already missed WWHS reunion
(not knowing about it!), I hope, that by having this email address, someone will contact me for the next one...
Oh, before I go, I have to give a "SHOUT OUT" to a number of very old friends: Cindy Arbaugh (Do you still have red hair?), Walter
Lawson (Are you still fast?), Yvonne Staples (Where is your brother?), and Doris Haley (Are you still wearing contacts?) There is
a reason to my asking these questions...smile!!!!

I just finished my first year yesterday, June 9, 2004, and can finally relax after a busy, excruciating, exciting year. I had
been teaching English 12 and written and oral communication in Fayette County at Midland Trail High School for the past 14 years
and just got tired of the 60- mile drive. The 5-minute drive now is just heaven, not to mention the warm reception, friendly staff,
and familiar halls that I loved so much. Of course many things have changed over the years, but we all have to get used to
that! I'd love to hear from any of my old buddies that did or didn't make it to the 25-year reunion. The 30-year will be here

Comments: July 6th and 7th at 4H camp near Little Beaver State Park. We believe this facility will take care of our families and give us a great building for our big party. We're keeping costs down and staying as informal as possible. We are NOT having a dinner party on SAT night, we will have some finger foods.
As of now the agenda looks to be: Friday night adults may meet at Foster's Bar and Restaurant........Others may want to meet at the 4H camp for a more rustic gathering. Some people are even talking about pitching a tent for the family.
SAT will consist of a family picnic ( bring your own food and family ) there will be games and other fun. Bring your basketball, volleyball and extra clothes( you may get wet)
A golf outing will be organized for Friday and Sat
Sat night will be the large meeting at the 4H camp building. Finger foods and soda pop will be provided BUT no alcoholic beverages. You MUST bring your own if you choose to drink. We're trying to get baby sitting services for our children.
The cost of this reunion hasn't been established yet however we don't anticipate the cost to be more than $10.00 a person.

Comments: Hey y'all! "77" still rules!!! Attended WV Tech for 2 years, then graduated
from Marshall in '81. I've been teaching here in wonderful Raleigh County for 21 years. Spent 3
years at Beckley Jr. High, 4 1/2 years at Clear Fork High, and I'm currently band/choir/music theatre
teacher at Liberty High School in Glen Daniel (yeah, I'm still into the "band thing"--lol). I'm
married to Pat Lykens ('75 Marsh Fork and '79 Concord grad). Pat is the Youth and Education
Coordinator at Beckley Presbyterian Church. We have 3 beautiful children--Amanda (20--a 2000 WWHS
grad), Jimmy (15) (Liberty High School), and Jason (14) (Independence Jr. High). We lived in
Whitesville for a while, but have been back home on Dry Hill since 1995. I am active with the
church, the Raleigh County Music Educators, an active school wrestling team mother (Go Liberty High
and Independence Jr. High!), an assistant scoutmaster of our local Boy Scout troop, and an Ordeal
member of the Order of the Arrow. I am also the proud mama of an Eagle Scout (Jimmy)! In my spare
time (hahaha), I'm still enjoying reading and needlework. This website is wonderful! I've seen
names of people I haven't thought about in 20 years! I hope plans for our 25th reunion are WELL
under way--never been to any of the reunions, but definitely planning to be at THIS one! Anxious
to see who else is gray, fat, and starting to wrinkle-----lol. Hope to hear from all my friends
and other alumni of the Flying Eagle band!!!!!

Hey, Flying Eagles! Haven't looked at the site in a while, glad it's by years now.
We've been in Charleston since late '96 after our Ft. Myers, Fla. sojourn. I'm back
in radio as Continuity Director at WV Radio Corp. (seven-station group in Charleston,
based in Morgantown). Husband Rick (from NJ/PA)is a Hydrogeologist for WVDEP. Son
Karl is almost 8 and quite the artist and music fan. Daughter Katie is 5 and a
singer/dancer (but she wants to direct). Is anyone starting to plan a 25th reunion?
Hope so, the last one was great! Also looking for Diana Mason-Geyer, last known residence in NC.
