Heard about this page, couldn't wait to visit it. Great job. I enjoyed reading all about all the former class mates. I've been with the Hoquiam branch of The Bank of Grays Harbor for 10 yrs now and 18 years with the Bank of Grays Harbor altogether working at various positions. I'm having the time of my life now that all three kids are grown and I have so much free time to do the things that I want to do. I have done a lot of traveling this past year - Puerto Vallarta, Aspen, Kona, St Louis - but it's always nice to come HOME. I graduated with the CLASS of 1966 and look forward to reading more about my classmates. Thanks for this opportunity to share a little with old friends.

I think this web site is a great idea. It shows a real effert is being made by people to stay in touch with there roots, classmates and friends. I know how is it is to start to drift apart. Me I joined the army and am stationed over seas so I find my self thinking about my old friends and classmates more and more. I miss seeing my old friends a nd classmates as well as well as the places I use to go with them . When I was in high school I took seeing them everyday for grated now that I am so far away I miss seeing them. I may have new friends now but I will always do my best to try and remember the old ones, and where they are and how they are doing now. Well I gotta go My hour on the computer is up.

Hello to all Classmates of "72". I just read through the guestbook and it brought back memories, and it wasn't that bad back then. We were lucky.. I have 2 children 17 and 19 and recently divorced. I work for a major computer company which keeps me busy. I miss the harbor very much as when you don't get any rain, you miss it. I would love to hear from all of my old friends...and thank you Kathy for the opportunity of having to sign your guestbook...

GREAT IDEA!!! YES, I AM LIVING IN BOBCAT COUNTRY. Have 2 children, ages 13 and 10. The oldest being a serious Bobcat, the youngest still wanting to make Mom happy by loving those Grizzlies! I consider myself awfully lucky to have grown up with Grizzly Pride and still surrounded by family members who feel the same. In fact, several years ago my youngest sister found the Grizzly mascot that had been stuffed away for many years at HHS. We had her wear it with pride at a basketball game. Hard to do for a 35 year old woman. It's true, once a Grizzly always a Grizzly!!!

Thanks to Janet Sleasman Johnson I heard about this and because of Stan Foreman I finally located you. I have truly enjoyed browsing and found some familiar names. I graduated in 1959, have two daughters and one son. I married a career Navy man who retired after 30 years so we moved around a bit. We bought a home in Bremerton in 1980 and returned there when my husband retired. He was a manager at a Honda dealership until January of this year when we hit the road in our motorhome for the next 2 years. We have our mail forwarded thru our daughter in Tacoma, WA. Would love to hear from anyone. Hope to chat online sometime.

The Class of '69 reunion July 23 & 24, 1999 was the greatest! It was so nice to see so many of my classmates and their spouses...sure wish more had attended. It was nice to get to meet Kathy, the creator of this site...thanks for your hard work here! Hopefully the 35th reuniion will have more of us in attendance...even Fast Bucks Eddie who is sort of an honorary graduate of the class of '69! You are the best, Ed! Let's try to make the 35th reunion the biggest & best ever! So much time and effort is put into each reuniion by the reunion committee (and their spouses, too! Gail Quigg worked so hard on our book!)they are really amazing. Thanks to each of them for everything they have done over the years to keep us all in touch across time and miles...old friendships are really special! Colleen Louderback Sproul

This is, indeed, a great site as many have commented. I left the Hoquiam area soon after graduating in 1964 when I joined the Air Force during the height of the Vietnam war. Served tours of duty in Philippines and Italy. I left the Air Force in 1969 and immediately entered the broadcasting business. I worked for six years as an announcer/disc jockey at various radio stations around the Pacific Northwest. I gravitated into broadcast engineering and eventually came to a Seattle-area TV station where I have been now going on some 21 years. Married 25 years and have 0 wonderful kids. My wife and I have traveled the world from China to England. This web site is greeat and I am wondering if it is possible to start a chat room here or start something on ICQ? Send me email. Stay in touch. BTW any news of a 35th reunion for class of '64? Richard Jones

Calling all 1960 HHS grads. We are having a get together on the 1st of August at the Hoquiam Stadium (All Star Game) and then after the game we will have lunch. Everyone is invited to the game. According to Ken Lundeen the cost of the game is a donation. (Would someone e-mail me and tell me the time of the game). Track meets are done for a few months and the gang that gets together each month for lunch in Oly thought it would be nice to have a get together and talk about when we were wild and young. But of couse Lanny is still wild but older. I am not sure if he is wiser or not. Kathie still a great home page and hope by the time our class reunion comes around next year, we will have more people on the 1960 space on the home front. Also if anyone wants to come to the luncheons that we have each month, just send me a e-mail and I will put your name on the list. We usually have 5 to 10 people each month. Kathie again keep up the good work, it is really a lot of fun coming home each day and turning on the computer to read the comments that are submitted.

I work for Horizon Airlines up by the airport in Seattle and I miss the peace and quiet of the harbor. I still get down about once or twice a year to see old friends. Would love to hear from old classmates. Dana Green (Ford) p.s. My brother Steven D. Ford lives in Olympia. He is from the class of "66. I am from '68

Hi everyone, This is a real clever idea. I haven't been back in a long time and this gives me a little connection to the past. My wife, (an LA valley girl) and I attended the 20 year reunion (class of 67) about 10 years ago and that was the first time ever for her and the first time back in a long time for me. She was impressed with how small our town really is.

Thanks for the great site, Kathie. Its fun to read all the names and comments. Although not technically a Hoquiam graduate (1965), I attended Hoquiam schools from 4th grade to midway through our Jr. year. I've always considered myself a "Grizzly". My family moved to Garden Grove, CA where I finished up. (La Quinta High) After a few years in the Navy I went to work for the Lynnwood Fire Dept. in 1974. Married Shannon in 1971, have 3 great kids, Ben, Heather and Joel. About ready to retire from the fire Dept. I would enjoy hearing from classmates. I know I'll visit this site often. Thanks again~

Great Web Site. It's great to see familiar names from Hoquiam, coming from all over the world. What a great way to communicate Class Reunions and other great activities. As you can see by my E-mail address I may have something to do with the Boeing Co. I've been with Boeing now going on 26 Years. I currently support the 777 Airplane as a Computing System Analyst. However I did do some time with the Boeing Defense side of the house for 11 1/2, with such programs as B-2, A-6 and F-22 and a few others, that I can't talk about at this time. I have lived in Everett, Wa. for the past 27 years. I still get down to the Harbor, about 3 to 4 times a year to see family and friends. By the way I'm from the GREAT CLASS of "66".

Kathie, I'm glad I finally took the time to see your pages, they are wonderful. Eddie and I just married off our second child, Amy 22, class of 95, on April 3 and my sister Linda told me about your web site while she was home. We have lived in Hoquiam always and have raised 3 children, now we are enjoying being grandparents to Danny 2 and new baby coming in June. They are in Lacey with our son Scott and his wife Teresa Jahner, both from the class of 92. In August of 98 we had a great visit with Nadima Leite, our exchange student from Brasil, as her and her family came to Ocean Shores to visit my family. It was wonderful to see her after 27 years. She has an e-mail address if anyone is interested in contacting her just let me know. It was great reading about all that wrote in, hope to hear from more as time goes on. Bye bye from the Hydes for now.

Kathie, This website is great! What a great way to catch up on all of the gossip. I've found out about alot of people that I normally don't hear about. Hoquiam is a great place to be from and grow-up in. There is nothing else in the world like the secure feeling you get from growing up in a small town. My son and I have been living in Portland, OR for the last 6 months. Previously we had lived in Bend, OR for 9 years. Quite a climate difference! There are a few people from Hoquiam living over in the Central Oregon area. Portland has alot of family for us to enjoy and we aren't that far from Hoquiam. I still have some family still there. We try to get up that way at least once or twice a year. I'll be sure to check in often for the latest up date on "As Hoquiam Turns". Thanks, Leann Simpson

Just thot I'd stop by and check this out again. I see a few familiar names, and a lot of younger ones I don't know! (Class of '68) I too miss having a reason to come back to Hoquiam, now that Dad's house is sold and he is in a rest home. I really enjoyed spending the amount of time I did here over the last year in getting it ready to sell. The peace and quiet of Hoquiam is a wonderful retreat from Seattle's busyness. Would love to hear from whoever. This is a great way to keep connected.

Everyone seems to agree on one thing, what a great page. Thank you for having the vision of a page that every "Grizzly" can appreciate. It's no great surprise that we rule the Northwest in spirit and hometown values. My class (class of 63) and all the other classes stand in front while our friends across Myrtle Street wonder, "HOW'D THEY DO THAT". Thanks again, Ken

Your web site is a great place to visit! I left Hoquiam in 1984 for the Army. I'm still in the Army, stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado Springs. I have been home only twice since 1984. The last time was November 1987. I do miss everything about home, especially the people. This web-site brings home closer. Hope to hear from "old" classmates. Class of '84.

Hello to Grizzley alums. My name is Margaret (Murphy)Bare from class of "50. Decided to revisit this page after receiving an E Mail from classmate Marian Gary Nordlund It would be so much fun to run into other classmates electronically speaking on these pages. Maybe its none of my business but I would really like to hear about what you have been doing these past 49 years and what you are doing now. Today is my birthday and I feel like my greatest accomplishment at the moment is that I've reached age 66 in reasonably good health and sound mind(also reasonably).My other greatest accomplishment is having raised 5 wonderful children who have done me proud. Would like to amaze my classmates fromMr. Kramer's Spanish classes that I am totally bilingual in Spanish and nearly so in French Will keep checking in to see who else has found their way here.

My name is Marian Gary Nordlund, class of 1950. I just learned of this great page. When I added my name to the register yesterday, surprisingly, there were no others from my class. I'm lucky to have two sons that pushed me into computer life and, amazing to me, I now enjoy it very much. Steve and Brian (Nordlund), classes of 1977 and 1981, still bail me out of trouble since I'm a slower learner than Brian's 5 year old. I hope others from my class will somehow find their way here too and send me an e-mail. The millinium year 2000 will find our class celebrating our BIG 50th reunion! Anyone caring to participate, have input or just communicate, send me a line...........marian@turbotek.net...........

Who said Hoquiam was the world's largest parking lot? What a pleasant surprise! After reading several of the comments posted, I had to run to my Hesperian to see who was doing the posting (it's been awhile). To all who may care, I'm alive and doing well in the land of the fruits and the nuts. Married, with two step-kids (boy & girl). Looking forward to communicating with other fellow graduates and discovering what everyone has been up to. Keep up the good work, the website is a kick.

Living at the base of the beautiful Bighorn Mountains on the edge of the plains. Can't say that I miss the rain of the Harbor but I do miss the feeling of "home".

Hi all you old grizzlies. Even after all these years, we still cling to that old mascot like it was part of our heritage. So many of us have moved miles away, but that old hometown reigns us back in whenever high school memories sneak up on us. No matter how successful or dismal your life may have turned out, we all share that unique time in our lives when we grew as grizzlies. You can try to escape it, deny it, or revel in it, doesn't matter. You're a mighty grizzly for life. I hope my party hearty classmates from 1970 log on with your email address so we can get ready for the "reunion of the century" in the year 2000.

After looking at the class of 1968 and all the names that have been added to the list, I guess it is about time that I start contacting all of the members of 1960 and get them on the list. I cannot let my sister's and cousin class out due the great class of 1960. I get down to the Hoquiam area about once a month, but right now is the busy season for track Lanny and I are doing the JO's in Seattle next week and then home for a week and then off to Eugene for the world games for two weeks. I thought when I retired it would be easier, but still living by the calendar. I hope that the class of 1960 will start putting their names in the book, since in about 2 years we will have our 40th class reunion. Keep up the great work Katie and remind everyone that we can chat in the chat room each night, without having to make long distance calls.

Hello everyone. I just attenden my 30th class reunion and what a trip! How did everyone but me get so old! Joke. The committee that did all the work needs to be congratulated. I will nelp next time. The music added alot. What a nice bunch of people. I wish we could combine several years together. There are lots of people I would like to see younger and older than me. I live in Seattle and love the city. I also appreciate Hoquiam each time I come home. I love the way you can walk down the middle of the street. I love the way it is quiet. I love the way everyone is so friendly and down to earth and SLOW. I don't know what I will do when I don't have a parent to come and visit.......Right now I am busy raising a 17-year-old-rap-music-loving-car-driving-pant-slung-low BOY - its fun!

I am from the class of "72". Can't seem to find any one from that class in your guestbook entries. I don't think many of them are around any more. I have been gone from Hoquiam since 1974 and have only been back in 1981. I have lived in Germany twice, Texas once, New Jersey once, went to Saudi Arabia during Deserst Shield Desert Storm, but have lived in Huntsville, Alabama since 1988. If any one can tell me who to contact for the class reunion for "72" please let me know.

Wow! Since my sister operates this home page, I check in frequently, but with our 30th year class reunion coming up this year, it's been fascinating to read all the comments from former fellow classmates. I can't believe all the wonderful memories that those messages bring instantly to minddd. I actually think I can smell the old study hall and I'm sure I can still see some of those Thanksgiving Day football games. I'm really looking forward to the reunion in July. Hope all my old classmates will be able to make it.

You've done a good job on the website. Anyone who wants to contact me, see the e-mail address. I'd love to hear from some old (ha ha - I couldn't believe it was 30 years) classmates.

If any of my old friends or classmates from North Beach High Class of 70 read this drop me an e-mail. With all the rain, flooding & mud slides you would think it was the Northwest down here.

I was so pleased to discover this page. I am eagerly counting the days until my return to Hoquiam (May 13, 1998). I have been away for almost eight years now and I've missed the soft serenity of the town a million times. It will be great to see familiar faces and hear friendly voices. My journeys to Los Angeles and The District of Columbia and Miami have educated me in ways unspeakable (both good and bad). But I've grown tired of the rush-rush nature of the city. I am weary of the constant noise. The time has come for me to be around family and friends. The time has come for me to return to the town that raised me and share with it the things I've learned during my travels. I eagerly await you, Hoquiam. And I do so on pins and needles.

I have just received a card of my 30th Class Reunion. Time seems too have really pasted by. I have only seen two people since Graduation from my class. This is really nice to set up a home page for the different classes, cause there are times you just think of where or what someone is doing these days. Very nice job. As for myself, I seem to be getting further away from Hoquiam. Within the next month, I will be headed off to Florida around the Tampa area.

Thank You for establishing a Hoquiam home page. I really enjoy stopping by on occasion to see what's going on at the harbor-- both good and bad (deaths of friends and teachers). I especially like the notes left by visitors; I even recognize quite a few of the names despite being away for nineteen years.I am rapidly approaching my next graduation--from the military--and hope that Hoquiam might just somehow be in my future.HHS Class of 1978

I spent alot of time in Hoquiam during my teenage years...VASA Hall - Oriole Cafe - skating rink - and of course theOlympic Stadium. Back then the big event of the year was the Aberdeen / Hoquiam football game - played on Thanksgiving day. We all wore huge MUM's with "A"s of "H"s in the center. It was wonderful! I married Rod Drake in 1967. We had two children who live here in the Port Angelesarea...so I am connected to Hoquiam in a way!Congratulations on a great site!! Becky Knotek

Great job on the page. You have done something to bring Hoquiam alive to the world. I left there in 1980, for me a lifetime, but now I can return everyday to see the changes, new and old people, and maybe find others that I may have known back then. Thanks for sharing with all of us, you bring a smile to my heart, and memories to my mind. Keep up the great work. (ps) I would have been in the 1983 Grad class.

By the way I did make a mistake on my last message that Lanny Dowell lived in Silverdale, and he did correct me, he lives in Bremerton, sorry about that Lanny. GO COUGS. Come apple cup time little doggies are going down in defeat. Will let you all know if I win the election in November. I guess maybe I should win since no one is running against me. Go Grizzlies. Anyone sees my brother Milt tell him I said hello, that also goes for my sister Sherri. Take care and it is good to come back to Hoquiam and see all of the comments that have been made.

A word of caution from the state. If you get some email about 'Be a penpal' or 'join the crew' don't open them. get rid of them. they contain viruses that wipe out your hard disk.

I moved from Hoquiam in 1982 to the Portland area of Oregon, where I went to college and got a job as a 9-1-1 Operator, and was also in the Army for a while. I was married for 7 years, and now have two children. Got a divorce just before joining the Army. Now I'm living in Olympia and my brother Stanley Stevens still lives in Hoquiam. I visit him very often.

Great page!!! I was so excited to get your email to direct me to this page. It is a great idea! I moved from Hoquiam in 1985 when I graduated and went to WSU. After graduation I moved to the Seattle area. I live with my husband Frank and our 11 month old daughter, Deirdre. I visit my family in Hoquiam as often as I can. I am a stay-home mom now, but used to be in the parks and recreation field for 7 years. I started my own business sewing children's clothes this past year. That and my daughter keep me very busy.Again, great page, I'll be back with my favorite Hoquiam story.Julie

Enjoyed your page. My wife and I retired two years ago to pursue all those things that we did not have time for in the "work-a-day" world. My teaching/coaching career spawned a great opportunity in the local media where I do radio/TV sports. We also officiate track and field, which has given us the opportunity to stay close to this great sport and travel to places like South Africa. We'll return.

Hi! Thanks for the email about your site. Very nice. I am class of '56', also from the old high school. My mother, my sister (Sheila Swanson Johnson - she's on your alumni list), and I all graduated from there. I moved to San Jose in 1958, so I've been gone for a long time. I have visited and gone to several reunions over the years, however. I was all set to go to my 40th reunion last year but decided to do something else that I thought would be more fun. But it wasn't. Big mistake. I should have gone to the reunion. I only have one relative left up there now (my Aunt Fleeta in South Aberdeen), so there is not so much of a push to visit. If anybody out there recognizes me, give me a beep. I don't have a computer at home, so I spend a lot of after-hours time at work, and they don't seem to mind.

Kathie: Great home page. I live in a little town just south of Chehalis called Napavine which by the way is the fastest growing city in Lewis County. I am now retired from the Navy and State Government and in my spare time Chairman of Lewis County Law and Justice, Crime Stoppers, VFW and now running (unopposed) for city counsel. Also I am a U.S. Track and Field Official along with Lanny Dowell who lives in Silverdale, Wa. I still try to make it home a couple of times each month as my mother, brother (Milt) and sister (Sherri) still live in the area. It is always great to come home. Home is where the heart is and Hoquiam is one of the best towns that we have in the State of Washington.
