I regret to inform everyone that Paul Jaenike passed away on Thursday in Morhead City North Carolina. He was surrounded by his wife Kay (Crowther) and his family. He's been a friend for a long time and will be missed. Kay is planning on having a Celebration of Life ceremony here later this year. I will let you know when am aware of plans.

Hi everyone, it's been a minute since I was last posting anything here but I'm looking forward to attending the 50 Something Reunion (at least one of the events) in late September.
My email address changed a while ago to sheiladeclerck@att.net so I believe some of the notifications about news of our classmates was going to my former address. I was just in updating my contact info. I hope you are all thriving and I look forward to September.

Good Morning 69ers
As you are aware we graduated from Pittsford High School 55 years ago. Kind of hard to believe that many years have passed but we are still here and going strong.
This year we are going to join in on the Pittsford 50 Something Reunion. This will include the classes of 1966, 1967, 1968 and 1969. Will be fun to mix with friends and family we went to school with. I will be sending out information about this event in the very near future.
I want to take this opportunity to thank someone who has been the glue to having a reunion every five yeras since we graduated. She has led us through 10 reunions that have all been fun and exciting. While there have been many people who have been part of the team, there is one person who was the leader of us. From the entire Pittsford Sutherland High School Class of 1969 we say thank you Kathy Lockwood Benson!

I echo what Bill had to say about the role that Kathy has played in organizing the many reunions we have had. Without her energy, we might have had a few of them, but not one every five years. Really well done. I have made all of them and have enjoyed each one. It is funny that I have better (any?) memories from high school than from any of my college stints.
I won't make this year's event....travelling, but I sincerely hope there will be more to come down the road.
Kathy, again, thank you so much for the years of work.

I am so sorry to report that Barb Olmsted Aaker passed away on December 20, 2023. She lived most recently in Oregon but her obituary appeared in the Steamboat Pilot in January 2024 because she lived in Steamboat Springs, Colorado for many years. Here is the link:https://www.steamboatpilot.com/news/obituaries/obituary-barbara-jan-aaker/ Though I did not see Barb when she and I both lived in Colorado, I had a wonderful, short visit with her daughter Mandie in Fort Collins, Colorado because of mutual friends. Barb's life sounds like it was rich and loving. She and her family are in my thoughts.
Sincerely,
Susan Dischinger Kirkpatrick
