RHS Class of 1965 Sixtieth Reunion!

August 22, 2024

Notice to all Rochester High School Class of ’65 members, friends, and associates
We’ve started the planning process for our next class reunion (believe it or not this will be 60 years).  It is scheduled for July 18, 2025 and will be held in Kitchen #1 at Borst Park in Centralia.  The exact time and all the details are yet to be determined (generally mid-afternoon to early evening or when people are done talking).  It will be another potluck so think of something to share with everyone.  There are cooking facilities and refrigeration available, if needed.  We will provide paper products, eating utensils, soft drinks and bottled water.
As in the past, we’ve scheduled the reunion so you can attend the annual all School Reunion held at Rochester Middle School the following day (July 19, 2025).  It’s always fun to see people from other classes and reminisce about the good old days.
So, start making plans now to attend.  If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact me and we’ll handle them.  There will be another message coming out early next year with all the details and schedule.  If you happen to see someone that is interested in attending, please invite them.
Hope everyone attends and we’ll have a great time.

Welcome fellow RHS Class of 1965 Warriors and Warriorettes!  The accompanying pages are an outgrowth of preparing and publishing our 50th class reunion souvenir booklet.  In order to have the booklets available for distribution at our July 17, 2015 reunion gathering, we decided not to include photographs.  Many of us are curious, of course, to see how gracefully our classmates are aging, so we opted to post reunion photos on this web site, allowing class members to view and print any images they may choose to keep. 

---> WE NEED YOUR HELP! <---

Please EMail your reunion photos to SodaBottles@yahoo.com for posting on this site.  We are also seeking images that fit the other sub-categories.  Wherever possible, please provide additional information, including the names of all pictured individuals.  Thank you!

PRINTING SUGGESTIONS

The accompanying photos may appear small and/or fuzzy on your monitor, making it challenging to recognize specific individuals, particularly for those of us with aging eyes.  Not to worry!  All of these images were scanned at high resolution and intentionally not compressed.  Although that means they may take slightly longer to download, the benefits far outweigh a few seconds of downloading time, particularly when it comes to printing.  Here are two suggestions for viewing and/or printing the posted images:

VIEWING:

Rest your cursor on top of an image and a pop-up message will remind you to "Click to open a separate window displaying a larger image!"

PRINTING:

Choose a desired photo;

Right click the photo and a dialog box will open;

Click "Save picture as..." to name and save the photo in a file of your choosing on your computer;

The saved photo can be viewed at a larger size, sent as an EMail attachment, cropped to focus on specific individuals (see example below), printed, etc. 

To print the photo, open a word processing program (such as Microsoft Word) and create a new (blank) document;

Select the page orientation (portrait or landscape) matching the shape of the photo you are printing;

Insert the photo into the document, size it as desired, and print.

This image of Danny Weber, Mervin Winkle, and Joey Morrow was cropped from the Littlerock Grade School third grade class photo.  Nice cuffs on those jeans, Merv, but how come you weren't wearing a cool cowboy shirt like Danny and Joey?  Noting the wear on the knees of their jeans, these three desperados likely knuckled down for more than a few games of marbles at recess...
