Alfonso Herrera

I am sad to hear about Ruth's passing. Although I only knew her briefly during high school, she was always friendly towards me. I remember her as being very kind and thoughtful towards everyone, and I know she will be missed by many of her friends and family. 

Happy Birthday, Al. Are playing the 70 and overs?

Hi Al- Good see that tennis is still part of your life. It became a big part of mine as well. Unfortunately, none of my kids took to it as they were to close to it on a daily basis.

hey Chris, i understand your thinking. I had a similar experience many years a go. My wife and I were vacationing in Florida with some friends and decided to go to the dog races since we have never been. There was a dog called "That a boy Al" so thinking it was a it wan meant to be, we put a bet on this dog. Unfortunately, my dog came dead last. From then on, we just bet on how pretty my wife thought the dog was and we did a little better. I lived in Lexington, Kentucky for 18 years and was fortunate enough to live near the horse farms and got to see some beautiful famous horses.

Hi Alice, to say it has been a long time is an understatement. Unfortunately, many of us fail to stay in touch after graduation but here is a second opportunity to stay in in touch. I will not be going to the reunion as my wife is also having her reunion on the same dates as ours. Do you keep up with any one else from our class? Would love to hear more about your adventures after you graduated. Regard, AL

I forgot to mention, I also have a Master degree in Special Education.

My goodness Phyllis, what a memory you have. I only remember about 3 people from St. Mary's but you are so correct about me being quiet while I was there. I was just learning to speak english so that may have had a lot to do with it. I am also very sorry that I will miss the reunion. I am hoping to stay in contact with as many of our class as possible to see if we can schedule some smaller reunions as part of vacations that we take. I do remember you very well, and I am very happy you took the time to write your note. By the way, I also have 4 grand children that I adore. Have fun at the reunion and please keep in touch. Al

Hi Bill, don't know if you remember me, but i wanted to say hello.

Hi Terry, how nice to hear from you. After graduation from ETHS I received a tennis scholarship to Murray State University in Kentucky. I played many tournaments after college, and taught my children how to play. They became pretty good players and also won college tennis scholarships. Needless to say I love the sports. Sorry I won't be attending the reunion. I have a conflict in schedule since my wife's 50th class reunion is also on the same date as ours. Have fun and lets keep in touch.

I was blessed to have had Bob as a friend while I was at ETHS. We both shared similar spanish backgrounds and I always felt he was friendly  and helpful towards me. We shared many good times and I will always treasure our frienship. He left this world much too soon!
