           This is a terrific idea.  I've lost contact with my class except for Joan Ayres Morse. I keep
           in touch with Ed and Helen Holt through e-mail.  He's still involved with music.  Years
           ago,in Austin, I actually taught the son of Ruben Ramos (fellow trumpet/cornet player)
           and the daughter of Ronald Mucha (drummer).  What EVER happened to Senator?  He
           preferred PSJA to home.

         Leave your Bear Memory
         Here!
 
                             There are many fond memories of softball, biology
                             under Mrs. Wodrich, the Carmen sisters, Mr. Gordon
                             Lee, Mrs. Kelly,Mrs.Brooks, and Mr. Holt urging us ever
                             onward and upward. What a great band we had. And,
                             of course, my dog Senator attending class with me. My
                             truck not starting, missing the bus and having to ride
                             my horse to school. Between Senator and me
                             dragging in with my saddle and books, I'm sure I
                             added quite a few gray hairs to Miss Edith's head.
         Comments.
 
                             Would love to hear from any from the classes of `48
                             through `52. Keep up the good work!!!

           three separate campus' having 2400 students each.  We must have started something....
            That Homecomming football game
           in Oct. '99 was the best I have ever seen, right down to the last seconds.   What a Bear

           This is great! Thanks to all of you that did this.  I married J.W. Hunt in 1961,we moved to
           Hurst in 1962 and are still here. We have 2 sons, Douglas and Danny and one
           stepgrandaugther.  I would love to here from any of you that graduated in 1958 and 59.
            Those were the only years I attended P.S.J.A., but they were great years with wonderful
           memories.
           We may try to go to the reunion if they still have space.

            Hello Fellow Class of 59'ers!!!
 message:
            Thanks to Ann and Lowell for the great
            web site.  It has been wonderful reading
            all the comments from BEARS; I would
            love to especially hear from those in
            the Class of 59.
            I've been in the Ft.Worth-Dallas area
            for over 30 years; don't get back down
            to the Valley very often. It was good
            to hear Larry Hendrick tell about the
            changes being made to our old school.
             KEEP IN TOUCH EVERYONE!!! Pat Hyden

 message:
            Great job, David.
            Thank you so much for all the time and effort you and Cheyanne have spent to bring joy
            to "the bears".  I recalled many happy memories as I looked at the photos and read the
            comments. I visualized the many, many trips in and out of that old band hall door lugging
            that heavy french horn case,but those were really fun days.

            I live in Cheyenne, Wyoming.  I haven't been to the Valley in such a long time.  I think
            this website is really great and reading the stories bring back so many wonderful
            memories.  Band and Choir was so much fun.  I appreciate all the hard work that
            Cheyanne and David are doing to keep the BEAR Family together.  What fun times we
            had.

            Seems like class of '60,61 etc. Enjoy reading of the successes of all the 'Bears", whatever
            year. We have scattered to all parts of the world and had a positive impact on everyone
            we came in contact with. My heart is saddened by the ones who have departed early and
            in a way, I envy them. Keep working to make this a better place for our children and
            prosper in all your works.
