Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris
Does anyone know who all we have have lost since high school?
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen Roxanne Walker, Marcy Wendell and Linda Ovingdon and another girl who drowned at Fulton Beach, can't recall her name.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris Peggy Taylor drowned the summer between 7th and 8th grade....it was very sad... we were best friends.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris Yes I remember Roxanne and Marcy and Linda passed away around our freshman year.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris and David Daws
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen Didn't know about David. Flo Lara told me about Marcy and he lost his brother.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris I found out about him a few years back.......
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris I seem to remember Ricky Valdez ..wasn't he is a car accident?
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen OH, he was so cute.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris yes he was and a good friend
David Crawford Rick hit a bridge embankment and he, his wife and children were all killed.. dont remember what year but a while ago
David Crawford believe it was around edna
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris wasn't that the railroad overpass before you get into to Refugio coming from Victoria?
David Crawford not for sure
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris I believe David had cancer if I am correct.
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen Anna, what ever happened to Tommy DeForest and Smiley ??
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen David Daws.
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen Elva, but what better way than this to remember them, I sure will miss Roxy. She was so much fun to be around, she even got a speeding ticket in my old white camaro.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris OMG I haven't thought about Smiley S. in like forever. I remember hearing something about Tommy like 20 yrs ago, his tugboat I think it was sunk and him and his crew were in the water for hours seems like some of them didn't make it but Tommy did (because of his size)
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen Tears...OMG Tears, my husband is looking at me like I am nuts...Anna only you would say something like that... :)
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris ?:I sorry but I remember that is what the news reported
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen Anyway those two would always show up at my house on Key Allegro and my mother didn't like him...said he needed to shave more. Poor guy always had a five o'clock shadow.
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin If you're talking about Tommy DeForest from Key Allegro, he's alive and well!
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin Taylor Blocker, Terry Freeborn:-(
Laurel McMeredith Andreasen Not Taylor! Another really laid back cool dude. Terry too. :(
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris OMG .... *FARKLE*....... I just remember Roxanne saying that.....
Debbie Smith Krenek I can't remember his last name but I believe in 5th or 6th grade we lost Jeff ... He had an amazing voice and I remember best him singing a Christmas song .. Silver Bells.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris I don't think I remember that name
Debbie Smith Krenek He was a cute young boy.. dark hair and kind of small frame .. I can picture his face but can't think of his last name.
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin We lost Charles Ingersol to Leukemia in Jr. High. He had a sweet older sister too. Can't drag her name out of the fog>
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin Anyone know about Crazy Tony Galindo?
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin He had a nasty monkey!

Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris Jo Ann what happen to those 2?
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin Dennis and Kenneth Both. I just herd about Kenneth. How did Dennis Go.?
Bill Beasley Alice had just dropped off a freind, not her boyfriend. We think she reached down to change the channel on her CB radio when she ran off the road. Was not wearing a seatbelt.
Ricky Little had aids. His parents wouldn't let anyone visit him when he was dying. Sad!
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin I thought Nancy Nesloney died a day after giving birth to her beautiful little baby girl. About 1989 or 1990.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris I remember hearing that that is what Alice did when she rolled her car. And I thought Nance died also after childbirth. How sad that no one got to visit Ricky Little.
Joann McGregor I remember about no seatbelt, changing ch. she was with some guy...thought it was the guy bf,,
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin ?@Anna. Ralph committed suicide in front of Terry. Terry did the same, in the same spot on our ranch about 15 years later. Terry never got over Ralph, but Strawberry's death sent him over the edge:-(((
Kathy Dupnik-swango what happened to polly flores, i didn't know about him?
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris ?@JoAnn that is really sad... I didn't know this.
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin Me neither, Dale and I saw him working at the Lighthouse Restaraunt as a chef the last time. He was doing well. I never herd how. He was a sweet guy also.
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin ?@Anna, yes, tragic:-(((
Joann McGregor I heard about the guys a few years back, so sorry Jo Ann, Ralph was always so funny at all the parties...
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris Also Billy Miller...he past some years back.
Ellen Weese My best friend Clay Pitman...
Bill Beasley Billy Miller used to help me when I was practicing pole vault. I was shocked to see his grave at the cemetery last year.
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin ?@Joann. Thanks, Ralph was crazy, in a good way too! Lord, his parties in Austin were famous!
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris I ran into his wife in a Victoria hospital when he was in there, I was visiting my father in law......and was shocked he was there then the next thing I heard he had past. :(
Jo Ann Freeborn Martin Clay was a sweetheart. Always kind, and ready to go have fun:-)
Jannet Bardwell Billy miller had complications with gallstones and had problrms with it for a year before the infection got so bad they couldn't do any thing more.. Denzel lost his battle with cancer after 2 1/2 yrs later...
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris What happen to Debbie Brown?
Bill Beasley I think Debbie was involved in an auto accident. Kay Anderson was killed in a motorcycle accident. I think Mark Wright was also killed in a motorcycle ax.
Mike Dupnik What happened to Charlie and pay nava
Brenda Hoffman Pat Anders, my first husband, and his brother, Mickey. So very much missed!!!!!
Elva Nava Pat died in a car accident in '89 on his way to the Aransas Pass Bowling Alley, on the back road, past Dupnik's Curve. Charlie died in Houston in 2003 after complications from liver failure. Really miss 'em...
Brenda Hoffman Elva which Pat are you talking about ?
Alma Cook Yvonne Miller passed away Nov2011 from lung cancer
Alma Cook Debbie Fake from cancer
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris I forgot about Yvonne..... I still have her facebook page on my friends list. :( Some of these names I remember but am having a hard time putting a face to it. :( old age I guess lol
Mary Harmon Patsy Bateman
Alma Cook Alice Carter? She died while we were still in school
Alma Cook Oh I still Have Yvonne on my friends list as well... I won't ever be able to take that off...
Alma Cook What happened to Susan Keller and Margie Morgan?
Brenda Hoffman So sorry, I forgot about Yvonne as well, loved her so!
Elva Nava Brenda, it was Pat Nava. He was 24 years old in '89.
Alma Cook If I remember correct. Alice actually drowned in that wreck, her head was under water in the ditch? I sat in front of her in a class, that was hard to walk into without here there, I still saw her sitting there
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris ?@Alma, a good friend of mine died about 7 yrs ago and I still can't bring myself to take her name off of my contacts list on my emails. Kinda the same with Karen Yvonne Miller Miles
Brenda Hoffman Oh, Elva I'm so sorry , I remember that now. Thanks honey.
John Cobb I think Billy Holt and Pat anders died on a oil rig why working.Johnny Ray Garcia die of a heartattach
Bill Beasley Alice went through the windshield - don't think she was conscious after that. We never did find her purse. I looked for it for hours. She worked at the airport and was going to solo the next day to get her private pilot's license.
Kay Pool Clark Alma, Margie died from some kind of disease. Not sure what disease but, she had to take steriods every day. When her mother died of cancer ,I think Margie gave up on life and didn't take her meds.
Alma Cook ?@ Anna, completely understand, like hanging on to that last strand. I spent the last 6 months of her life going to see her as often as possible, I had never watched anyone struggle or pass away, think that is one of the harder things I had ever done, telling her it was okay to go, She had a good 6 months, sure there were bad days, but all in all.. and let me tell you, her memory was sharper than mine.
Alma Cook ?@Kay, oh my that is so sad
Alma Cook Almost forgot, Mrs Fake also passed away, well she wasn't from class but...
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris ?@Alma I hadn't seen Yvonne for years....but we all grew up together, her parents and mine were really good friends and I can remember billy, yvonne, myself running around outside while our parents played pennie ante poker.....lol till all hours of the night.
Brenda Hoffman Yes John, Pat was electricuted while working on an oil rig. Didn't know Ricky Holt died. How?
Brenda Hoffman Also Wanda Grossman ,don't remember how are when, but was really fond of her. Anyone know where Johnny Grossman is?
Alma Cook ?@Anna, Yvonne had such a memory, so I am sure she remembered you and running around outside.. If she were still alive she would be adding so much to this conversation, there is no doubt! :-)
Janet Johnson We had our 30 year reunion last year and I believe we have lost 6 from the class of 80.
Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris ?@Alma.... she did remember...... when we found each other here on fb we had several long talks.....it was great catching up with her. And I miss her too

Sandy Cruser Homer Saucedo, he and Elvis (don't recall his last name) died our 10th grade year over in Portland . They were coming back from senior skip day in the middle of the night and fell asleep. They crashed into one of the palms in the median. Remember Jo when we went to see the crashsite and Homer's car? He and Alice Carter were both our class favorites our 10th grade. Both accidents were very tragic for all of their friends and classmates, but esspecially their family.

Anna Schexnider Hudman Morris Seems like that there are quite a few of us that lost our husband or wife way too early in life. Getting married at 17 and thinking you are gonna spend your lives together until one day it all changes. I lost my first husband/high school sweetheart Jimmy Hudman (class of 72) in September 1982. Life isn't always what you expect it to be.
