Welcome Class of '65

July 10, 2010 

The 45th Reunion is history, but what a great weekend it was getting together with old friends...

I believe the concensus was that we all had a terrific time.  Thank you to everyone who came to make this reunion such a great success.  I will be posting a lot of pictures over the next few weeks and a couple of videos too, be patient...  I am slowly adding pictures every day. I have loaded a bunch so far, Steve Momot just sent me almost 100 more to post, so keep checking back as I add more.

Also, anyone who took pictures at the reunion who would like to share them please send me copies via CD, email, etc. I will post them in the Photo Gallery.

For those of you that didn't get a copy of the "2010 Yearbook" and would like to purchase one, send a check for $20 made out to "MPHS Class of '65" and mail it to:  MPHS Class of '65, C/O Bruce White, 117 Hockessin Drive, Hockessin, DE  19707.  The "yearbook" is a 440 page PowerPoint presentation on a computer flash drive.  There is a "yearbook" page for every classmate with bios and pictures on a large majority of our class.

Thank you also to everyone who donated money toward our next reunion... the 50th, we raised almost $1000 to continue our efforts to make the 50th Reunion our biggest event ever.  We still need your support to reach our goal of $3000.  We spent almost $2500 putting our 45th together.  If you would like to donate please send your check (also made out to "MPHS Class of '65") to: Marion Cashell, 605 Swallow Hollow, Greenville, DE 19807.  Anything you wish to give is much appreciated.

FYI - I updated the Email Page again, it is current as of June 22, 2010

I NEED YOUR HELP...  I AM STILL TRYING TO LOCATE OUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CLASS PICTURES.   I CONTACTED THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OFFICE FOR HELP FINDING SOME OF THESE PICTURES.  I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND OUT THEY PROBABLY HAVE BEEN DESTROYED.

The State has recently adopted an archive policy and now strives to save this kind of information.  I told the district official I would copy our records (pictures) and provide them to the State Archive.  We would become the only class from that era with a full history if we can come up the pictures.

The goal is to gather all the Elementary Class Pictures (From River Road, Edgemoor, Silverside and Carrcroft) so look through your albums, somebody must have these, First through Sixth Grade at all the schools.  River Road, Edgemoor and Silverside no longer exist as schools, so if we want to preserve any of our history it is up to us.   Please check to see if you have any of these pictures, your classmates would love to see them.

If you have pictures, you will now need to e-mail them to me directly.  We had to stop allowing direct updates for security reasons, please send them to me via e-mail ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) and I will add them to the site. Try to have the pictures in a JPEG format, GIF format, or a BMP format.  I prefer them to be less than 2 MB in size, but I can convert almost any size or format.

PHOTO GALLERY - UPDATED February 22, 2010

In the new Photo Gallery you will see some changes, I did add a few new pictures too.  You now click on a picture as before to view it, but you can move forward or backward by clicking the bottom of the picture you have chosen.  There is a slide show feature I am still working on.  Also you will note that when you glide your mouse pointer over a picture a caption will also appear, if there is a caption.

THE UPDATE PAGE - UPDATED February 23, 2009

You will find that the UPDATE PAGE is different, we have removed the form layout, now you just type freeform any thing you want us to know, after adding your Name and Email.  Please keep us informed if you move or change your e-mail address.  You can also email me directly.
