I just recently learned (alerted by the demise of the email address to which I'd been sending updates to the contact information list) that Ann VanDemark Willenborg died January 24, 2015 in Columbus, TX. (Obituary and guestbook at
http://www.hennekefuneralhome.com/services.asp?locid=1&page=odetail&id=650#.WlPeHjdG1PY .)
At Lamar Ann was active in Tawasi, Choralettes, and Christian Student Union.














An entry for Ann is being prepared for the In Memoriam section.  Please send your memories of Ann to rjhabq@gmail.com for inclusion in that entry.

Edward John (Johnny) Jamail

Our '58 classmate Edward John (Johnny) Jamail, Jr. died May 17, 2017 in Cypress, Texas. (Obituary and guestbook at http://www.kleinfh.com/sitemaker/memsol.cgi?user_id=1965499 .) As the obituary points out, Johnny's post-Lamar trajectory included a lot of drag racing and bull riding, followed by joint operation (with his brother) of a sand hauling business and of Jamail plumbing with his son, John. Johnny didn't have an entry (other than “Not pictured”) in the '58 Orenda, so please let me or Louise know if you have memories of Johnny at Lamar (or before or after Lamar, for that matter) you're willing to share with the rest of the class. [Rick McDowell, '59 memory of Johnny as “a regular winner at the local drag strip back in those days”.] A visitation and a funeral service were held for Johnny in Tomball May 21 and 22, with a committal service and interment at Forest Park Westheimer Cemetery in Houston on the 22nd.
    An entry for Johnny in the In Memoriam section is being prepared.

From David Redford (organizer for the golf tournament Friday at the 60th Reunion): 
"Here is [a] correction. The cost of the golf will be $64 a person which includes a cart. It is normally $35 but to reserve these tee times as a group there is a premium and there is a limit of 7 tee times. Please let me know if you want to play."
