I'm looking forward to seeing the Gang at the reunion, too. Very fun seeing the guys last fall at the reunion of the '64 football team. BIG REQUEST- If anyone has, or knows how to get, a Class of '65 Yearbook, it would be a great favor, I lost mine and would love to replace it. Maybe a married Oriole couple who have 2? Thanks, Bob

comment by Cindy Pratt

I am still living in the So. Calif desert area, 30 years. My parents moved from St. Louis Park just last Nov. to Alabama where my brother Jeff Nelson lives. I am looking forward to this reunion very much. WOW 40 years, I guess we all feel this way, WOW!! See you in August!!!

comment by Patrick Gillham

It's a pleasure to sign this guest book. It's my 58th birthday today, and I have to say that life has been great. It's also funny that I received the 40th reunion invite on my birthday. ( I'm surprised I lasted this long ) I live in Atlanta, GA. for those people who still live in Minnesota, I'm on my way to play some golf. I wish everyone well. See you at the reunion

comment by GARY BUSSE

It is hard to believe that it has been almost 40 years since graduation. How time flies when we are having fun! I am looking forward to the reunion to re-unite with classmates and to jog my memory. My thanks to the committee for the outstanding website.

Hi everyone. My latest book, Hope Dies Last, was released on Earth Day, Apr. 22, 2025 (sorry, this format doesn't let me post my publisher, Dutton/Penguin Random House's link, but by searching the title, you'll find it): “Alan Weisman deserves applause…[he] set out to find inspirational people doing extraordinary work to save the planet…He found them and their work can save us from writing a catastrophic next chapter for our earth.” —The Associated Press “A wide-ranging look at visionaries who are working on ways to lessen the worst effects of climate change….[an] impeccably written and thoroughly inspiring narrative.”—Kirkus, starred “The vibrant portraits serve as a rousing testimony to human ingenuity and perseverance….This inspires.”—Publishers Weekly "Go into this book ready to learn and be amazed,…You’ll be delighted by small things, awed by big ones, and you might be spurred to act, once you’ve read Hope Dies Last.” — The Bookworm Sez “Weisman’s detailed examination of their and others’ work shows that there are paths to solving the world's largest problems. The reader will come away with a renewed belief that hope for the future need not be lost.”—Booklist

Hello y’all. Been living in Florida for the last 10 years. My daughter and kids moving to the Charlotte NC area later this summer. Hopefully I can make it to see older friends before moving to be with the kids. Unattached after a long relationship and ready for a new chapter. Still young at heart and very active. Wish everyone great health and lots of happiness.

Hi, I am Linda's husband and am responding for her.  Sadly, Linda was diagnosed Alzheimers some 4 years ago.  Luckily she has retained the sweet personality and caring manner I married.  We raised 3 wonderful daughters in solid marriages, with 2 grandchildren each.  We have been richly Blessed. We met and married in San Francisco where we started our family, moved to Denver for work and eventually to Atlanta where we our now located. We maintain links to Minnesota via her brother Tim and long time family cabin on Big Pine Lake.  We visit whenever possible.  She is at home with me now, though changes are coming. Respectfully,   Dick Weber

comment by Linda Anderson

Hi Sparky - Barbara Blettner's married name is Offord.  This is the correct spelling.  There is an obituary in 2008 for her husband.  Barbara lived in Stillwater at that time.  Sorry I can't be of more help, but perhaps with the correct spelling of her last name and her place of residence in 2008, you might have more luck tracking her obituary down.  

comment by John Lindemann

Hello All! It is Memorial Day weekend,  2020.  Hundreds of thousands of people are dying, forty million Americans are out of work and there is no baseball.  Life sucks! But here's an idea - why not read my book.  The title is UNCONDITIONAL.  A man, an infant Holocaust survivvor, developes a messiah like complex and makes it his life's work to defeat the enimies of Israel once and for all. The book is available on Amazon in either e-book or paperback.  On Amazon's front page  search box type my full name  John Webster Lindemann.  Let me know what you think.  John

My wife, Cassy, is retired as as manager of US Swimming Minnesota. We are all still swimming, including two grandchildren in Austin Texas. My wife and I reside in Minnetonka, Minnesota.

comment by Linda Anderson

Sadly, one of our beloved teachers, Marcella Johnson, passed away on January 25, 2021 at the age of 100.  Marcy taught Business Education for over 25 years until her retirement. She had lived in Sun City West, AZ for many years before her death.  Marcy lived across the street from my family throughout my school years.  She and I kept up our friendship until her death. When she would visit relatives here, we would get together for lunch or dinner to catch up and share memories.  We would keep in touch on a regular basis through e-mail, letters and telephone. Every year on her birthday she would send me a photo riding her bicycle!  She was an amazing woman and a great friend! I'll never forget her and will miss her very much.

Hello to all you old timers.... I won't be coming to see y'all.   I'm still extremely sad about the passing of Steve Feldman...he was a great buddy for decades. Every time I tee it up I think of him. Probably why my game is still fairly strong. life is good here in Florida.  Still working in home furnishings and loving it. celebrating my mother's 95th this summer in Nashville and attending my niece's wedding in Hollywood Ca in September. Hope everyone stays healthy and enjoys all the "old" memories. Takecare.  Hope to attend the next reunion.

comment by Steven Hoffman

Hello classmates, I reside in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.  It is a quaint little drinking village with a fishing problem.  I look forward to attending the class reunion in 2021.  Recent news of my passing were highly exaggerated as I can assure you that I am still the radical little SOB of a libertarian activist here in South Carolina.  Politics is my raison d'etre and South Carolina is a target rich environment.  But I promise you that I will not talk politics at the convention.  As I have traveled throughout the world since I graduated from St. Louis Park, I quickly realized how lucky I was to go to a good high school that actually had a high quality educational program.  We are all blessed.  Oh ya, forgot to mention...I am a born again Christian.  Used to worry that I would be like an atheist at his own funeral; all dressed up and no place to go.

comment by Cindy Pratt

Well, it is State Fair time again.  After missing it last year I am looking forward to it.  I will be at the Bison booth on Thursday, Sept. 3 and Sunday, Sept. 6.  If you are going to be there come by and say "hi".  Planning to be at Bunny's in SLP on Saturday evening 8/29.  Looking forward to being in Minnesota for much needed relaxation!!

comment by Judith Chazen Green

I am so looking forward to going to this reunion.  It has been fifteen years since I went to the last one. Now that I have retired from teaching I can do whatever I want when I want to do it.  I plan on looking through my old Echowan just to  try to refresh my memory.  I don\'t know if anyone will recognize  me as I have changed the color of my hair to blend in with the California sunlight.

Sadly, our classmate Steve Feldman passed away unexpectedly last week. His obituary was in Sunday's Star & Tribune, November 12, 2017. He is survived by his wife,  our classmate, Sue Berg, their children and grandchildren.

comment by Herbert Miller

I am looking for any contact information for Dick Nelson and Doug Smith. Both have common sir names so internet searchs provide dozens and dozens of responces, even with filters like Minnesota and 74-76. Went to St Louis Park HS today to get, perhaps their middle name.  They would not even give me their initial. Year book does not include middle name or initial. I did find Lenny Oslund, and we had a nice talk a couple of days ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Herb Miller

comment by Cindy Pratt

I know I am not the only one to return to this site in the year since our reunion. I find it hard to believe it has been one year! I will be back in Minn for the State Fair, at the Bison Booth, on Sunday and Monday(Sept.3 & 4) I am hoping to get to SLP for my traditional cheeseburger and beer at the Park Tavern(Thurs. 9/7) anyone care to join me?? I will be staying at my sister's in Pine City, come on up and see the buffalo roam. My cell number is 760-567-7823 if interested in giving me a call.

Now that I have retired from teaching I can do whatever I want when I want to do it.  I plan on looking through my old Echowan just to  try to refresh my memory.  I don\'t know if anyone will recognize  me as I have changed the color of my hair to blend in with the California sunlight.

Sadly, our classmate Steve Feldman passed away unexpectedly last week. His obituary was in Sunday's Star & Tribune, November 12, 2017. He is survived by his wife,  our classmate, Sue Berg, their children and grandchildren.

I am looking for any contact information for Dick Nelson and Doug Smith. Both have common sir names so internet searchs provide dozens and dozens of responces, even with filters like Minnesota and 74-76. Went to St Louis Park HS today to get, perhaps their middle name.  They would not even give me their initial. Year book does not include middle name or initial. I did find Lenny Oslund, and we had a nice talk a couple of days ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Herb Miller

I know I am not the only one to return to this site in the year since our reunion. I find it hard to believe it has been one year! I will be back in Minn for the State Fair, at the Bison Booth, on Sunday and Monday(Sept.3 & 4) I am hoping to get to SLP for my traditional cheeseburger and beer at the Park Tavern(Thurs. 9/7) anyone care to join me?? I will be staying at my sister's in Pine City, come on up and see the buffalo roam. My cell number is 760-567-7823 if interested in giving me a call.
