Class of 1949

The Mount Ayr High School class of 1949 held their annual reunion May 15, 2015 at the Mount Ayr Restoration Branch Church. The group enjoyed visiting, picture taking and the meal prepared and served by Sue Beck and Kathy White.
Traveling the farthest were Dean Grindstaff and wife of Lansing, KS. Others from out of town were Ed Bryan and Phyllis of Des Moines, Walter Pritchard and Nola of Clarinda, Jim Mahan of Leon, and Elbert Irving of Afton.

Local classmates attending were Iona Baker Triggs, Harold Cooper and Phyllis, Lloyd Glendenning, Norma Rees Creveling, Margaret Turner and husband Laurance Bishop (both members of the class). Also attending was Margaret Danielson Wilson, who was a member of the class until her family moved to Redding where she graduated.

We mourned the loss of two classmates since our reunion last year - Pat Main Prentis and Marilyn Denhart Richards.

The decision was made to meet again next year the week before Memorial Day.
