During Festival Ironwood in July, a 70th birthday party was held at Tacconelli's in downtown Ironwood. A lot of LLW '59 classmates attended as well as some '58 and '57 visitors. Thanks to Jackie (Hariu) Sathers for doing the organixing. Seventy? How did that happen?

50th Reunion

I'm looking for some pictures - send me some if you can.

The Viet Nam Era LLW Site

It is sadly discontinued, at least for now. The list-master, Ed. Estola, is working on his commercial pages and can't devote the time to maintain it at present. We hope that it will resurface soon.
