Everything was perfect at the reunion. Thanks to the 'doers'! What a blessing to see the final results of the promising lives we were given in such a special time in history. I wish I'd paid more attention! God bless us until we meet again!

I am an alumni.  Even though my family moved at the end of my junior year, and ZI graduated from a different school, LD Bell will ALWAYS be my school.  I enlisted in the US Marines in 1965, and spent 30 years raising a family, and working for the Army.  I will always love LD Bell.

Hi all you youngsters!  What a wonderful site! Lot of time, effort & love has gone into this by you all. 

Wish all of you could have joined us at our 45th reunion!  We had a great time and would have enjoyed seeing y'all there, as well.

It's been suggested that we might want to consider including the Classes of 1963 & 1965 at our big Five-O reunion...what fun that would be to get to see all of you again!

I enjoyed taking a stroll through time, looking at all the pics here!

Special thanks to the "committee" for the terrific job they did on planning the reunion. If you missed it, you missed a wonderful evening.

Now if we could get names on the pictures from that night it would be absolutely perfect!

Hope we can make it to the 50th!

I appreciate the work and planning that has gone into the reunion. This will be a great time. I have a great number of found memories of that time in the HEB. John, see if you can get them to move up the start time of the football game. 7:30 is a little late for some of us.

To John and the entire Reunion Committee--a heartfelt "Thank you" for all the hours you have put in on every aspect of our upcoming party! I know your hard work will pay off with lots of laughs, tears, and remembrances of a fabulous time in our lives. I have loved looking at the website, reading about our friends, and enjoying all the pictures! Looking forward to our time together, very soon!

This must have been a lot of hard work, and my hat's off to you for that.  It's more than a little freaky to have you find me after all these years.  I went to a lot of different schools and several different colleges, only one year at L. D. Bell.  Of my best friends from that year, three are dead and two are just missing.  I hope that you all have a wonderful time and that you can connect with old friends again.

Just wanted to say thanks for all the great memories on this website & that I'll be thinking about everyone the weekend of the reunion.  I know it's going to be great & I wish we could be there.  We won't be attending because we will be returning from MDA in Houston that week following some surgery that Bill will be having there.  I do hope there will be some pictures & comments of the reunion for those of us who can't attend. 

Have fun!!!

Kudos to John and the Reunion Committee.  I am so impressed and grateful for all the hard work that you have put into this website and into organizing the Reunion.  I keep coming back to the site to see what is new!  Thank you for all your work and especially for posting the class photos from the yearbook.  My senior yearbook died in a flooded basement years ago and it has been wonderful to find all those smiling faces and names on line!

Thanks for inviting me!  I was at the 20th.  Please invite some other teachers so I will not be the oldest person in the county.  However, i just had my 50th, so I am not that far ahead of you.  Please wear name tags.  i remember your faces and names from the yearbook, but i hate to mention that some of you have changed a little.

I spent hours going through this website before registering, etc. - what a hoot! Hard to believe we look like our parents - except for me..I haven't changed a whit (?!). Truly look forward to seeing all of you, who made a scared transfer student's senior year one of the single best memories of his life. Echoed kudos, John and company.

Hello exes! Our highest regards to each of you!
  I'm still not sure if George and I wll be able to get down there for the reunion as yet. I raise Springer Spaniel 'puppy-dogs' and am not sure I can get a 'baby-sitter' for one thing.

  I am hoping, too, that as we see more and more precious souls of the Class of '65 'go on'you can see the reason that I poured out my heart to you on the registration page. Maybe you'll have a long, boring night soon when nothing good is on TV and will read it for me? :O)  I risked offending you only because you mean a WHOLE lot to me! and we are going to spend eternity in another place. I only wanted to 'check' and see if you know where you are going after that last (next?) heartbeat. AH I'm just 'no fun' huh? but maybe God did bring me-in His love for you. I'm smiling at you. (half-teasing)
blessings to each of you in Jesus'Name,
carolyn brown

Hey there, Class of 65! Congratulations on such a great site, John, and for all of the participation here. The Class of 64 is having our 45th Reunion in Hurst on Oct 10, as Danny Gilbert mentions below.

Please "crash" our party and join us. The details have not yet been finalized yet. Being a year older than most of you, we are a little slower.

It is so nice to see all of the familiar names and so sad to see the number of your class that have passed on.

Keep up the good work. John, This is a great site!!!

The Christmas party for the Bell Chicks which Judy G. and Dixie give is great for visiting with the "girls", so this will be a wonderful chance to visit with the "guys amd girls of '65" again!!

I'm Sue Beth McClure's Sister and Class of 1969.  I'm so excited that Sue has invited me to join her for the Reunion. Ever since she brought home her first Annual ('62 or '63), "little sister" kinda felt a part of everything because I "knew" so many faces.

However, the Class of 1969 is having their 40th Reunion at Texas Star also, on 9/12/09.  We are sometimes referred to as "The Wild Bunch", but most of us have matured somewhat, so we'll try to leave the building STANDING!
