With graduations taking place all over the area, I have been thinking back to my own graduation. Wow! Was that really 21 years ago? It is hard to believe that I have been out of high school for 21 years. In the last 21 years, our class has been through quite a few changes. There have been marriages, births, and career changes. Members of our class have lost loved ones: some have lost children, many have lost parents, and some may have even lost their own lives. When there is a life event, such as a birth, or death of a loved one, you can bet that the Class of 1994 will be there, offering condolences or congratulations. That has been one of the huge benefits, in my opinion, to having Facebook. When my dad passed away, I had numerous classmates comment on Facebook, offering their condolences and glimpses of what my dad had meant to them. My only wish is that we as a class would have been able to stay better in touch, not just on Facebook.
