Perham Class Of '83

Hey all. I hope the summer has been good to you all. Relaxing and fun to be with friends and family. It has been fun to catch up with everyone on facebook and see what everyone is doing. I do have 2 pieces of sad news from our class. Clayton Ard passed away a few months ago in Louisana due to a bicycle accident. Also, Mike Minton passed at his home farm this summer. Prayers please for their families.

This is also your reminder that we are meeting as the Perham class of 83 at ZORBAS in PERHAM, on SATURDAY, AUGUST 24th at 6:00pm. This is just a show up, order your own drink or food and chat the night away. We will have name tags to make sure you remember who is who. This will be a yearly gathering, same time and place every year because if we waited another 10 years, WE WOULD BE 70!!!! YIKES!!! We hope to see as many as can make it there. Please spread the word to those that didn't make it last year and come on out and visit. See you on the 24th.

Hey all. Welcome to winter. Wow it is going to get cold this weekend. THUS, we are going to CANCEL this saturday's get together for the class of 83. We were planning to meet at zorbas this saturday, Jan. 13th at 6. BUT is is looking like it will be about 10 below at that time. SOOO we will keep the August 24th meeting time.

Hey everybody!!!!! I hope this fall was good to everyone and the holiday season blesses you and your family. I haven't been on since the reunion (WHICH WAS A BLAST!!!). Thanks to everyone that came and shared their stories. We do have a couple of sad news to report. Mark Byers and Maxine Thompson lost a parent recently. Please send them prayers and be thinking of them in their time of loss.

On to other news, I asked the committee about an "after holiday" gathering just for fun and they liked it. Soooooo mark your calendar for SATURDAY, JANUARY 13th at 6:00pm at the Perham Zorbas for food, drink and fun with your classmates. There is no registration, no planning or anything.

Hope to see some of the classmates that couldn't make it due to other commitments. Barb?? PegJ.??? see ya there. Thanks all. Martin

Hey class of ‘83. Good morning and happy Tuesday. The committee sent out our questionnaire for the memory book last week and you should have gotten it by now. In the letter we also put another registration form just in case you misplaced it or whatever. We put it in everyone’s mail. For those that have already paid and registered, just disregard it. Thanks much. And thanks to the the committee too. Linda, Mike, Mark, Adam, Mara and Jim.

Hey all. Happy Friday. Hope everyone is doing great. GUESS WHAT??? We have the famous Paul Richter coming to the reunion. Yes, he just signed up. Star of Stage and seed. Yahooo. Phil Stoll, Jeff Plowman, Mike Meader, Peg Huebsch, and the infamous Bob Barry are all just some of the stars of the class of '83 that are coming. We only have 20 classmates signed up but know there are lots more that haven't gotten their registration in. We are about a month and a half away. We have games, prizes, supper and COOKIES. I know, just find the registration form and fill it out and get it to me please. We also have another mailer coming out late next week that is the memory sheet. You all must be having a fantastic summer as everyone is busy but please send in the registration form. Thanks all much. Can't wait.
