Class of 1965 Reunions
It has been a long time coming. It seems not so long ago we were dragging Polk Street, swinging into Twings for a burger and fries, and dreaming of the future that lay ahead of us. Today we have traveled fifty years of that journey. Along the way, we have experienced great joy as we watched our families grow, and suffered pain at the loss of our classmates, parents, and other families members. We have watched the cycle of life play out befor our very eyes. And today we are enjoying the fruits of our labors as we watch a new generation of children and grandchildren growing up to begin their own journey. And we are here to watch it unfold.

In September 2015 we celebrated our last large, full-scale reunion, the 50th, a milestone for us. In the years that will follow, we will continue to have small-scale luncheon-type get-togethers in Amarillo for as long as we can. When there is only one person left in our class, that person can turn off the lights and call it a century. Until then, we are committed to celebrate the spirtit of 1965 Palo Duro High School, the extraordinary teachers we had, and the classmates with whom we began our life's journey with as adults. The 50th Reunion was a special time as classmates returned home to Amarillo to enjoy the memories that we have had together and to celebrate our beginnings with each other. It has taken us a half century to reach this point, and we gathered together and looked back and enjoyed the present with each other and our special guests.

Below are links to the last two reunions that we have enjoyed in 2010 and in 2015. Included you will see photograph albums, clips from our reunion movies, our group reunion picture, and much more. As you can see, plans are afoot to add more reunions to this page, taking you all the way back to 1970 when we were just five years out of Palo Duro High School and just 23 years old. It has been a long journey home. Help our webmaster, Vernon Williams, complete these early reunion pages during the coming year. Send pictures and any memorabilia you have from those early reunions.
