It was no "High School Musical" but it did give us a chance to catch up and to enjoy old memories. Fifty years is a long time. I was voted "the least changed." That must mean I've made the least progress. Actually, when I consider my family, I think I might be one of the very most successful of all from our small class. I think that is what matters most. More than half of our small class went on to finish college and we have, at least, of those who were there, three with doctor's degrees, some masters degrees, and a NCAA track and field champion, about ten missionaries and nearly that many bishops, and two stake presidents. That is way above the national average. We only had twenty-seven graduates that year(1958) How did we ever do it with only three elective classes to choose from at little Bo-Diddly Tech/Fielding High School class of 1958?. It might have been more, but that's all I could think of. It's called stick to the basics, something that seems to be getting lost in the educational systems of today. Some of our classmates are dead some are spiritually dead, some couldn't or just didn't care to show up, but it was good seeing all those who could make it again and knowing what they have done in the past fifty years. Here's a class photo someone took. The next fifty year reunion will be even more revealing.

Good for you Bart!! How neat have that experience. and yes, you have been very successful in your life -- no matter how you look at it.:)
You are a success in every aspect of your life. You have done the best you can and you have a family that are trying the same. We all love eachother and are healthy and well. If that isn't success- what is? Looking at the Photo- You look pretty darn young and goodlooking comparitively.
