Lake City Class of 1957 holds reunion

The Lake City High School Class of 1957, friends, family and members of the class gathered at the Riverside High School Library in Lake City on Saturday, Oct. 1, 2011, to celebrate their 54th class reunion.

Mistress of Ceremony Martha Carter did not get to relate much of the program, everyone was so happy to see each other. There was a lot of visitation going on in the library. Everyone did recall the many changes in the past such as technology and culture.

The group did a tour of the new Riverside High School at Lake City.

Lake City Mayor Jon Milligan made a presentation of the advances made in the City of Lake City.

Roxanne Keiter made pictures of the group.

The deceased were remembered with a beautiful picture. They are Patricia Cobb Carroll, Norma Jean Kincaid Kauke, Mary Kathryn Wright Allison, Edna Mae Mabe, Rayburn Harrison, Bruce Dunlap, Bobby Owens, Bobby Dale Davis, and Howard Allison.

The group was sorry Patsy Pack Cobb was unable to attend this year. She has never missed a reunion but this year she was involved in the St. Jude's fundraiser for Scout Lyerly, which was a good cause.

Classmates had different vocations through the years but almost everyone is now retired. Everyone agreed they had a good time and hope to see each other in two years.
