Re: It's a Wonderful Life I attended with my cousins and highly recommend this great production! Michael Thomas (son of Larry BRACKENBUSH ('58) and Barbara SESLAR Brackenbush ('60), acted his role to perfection. Our own Terence Knox, aka Terry DAVIS ('65) was the angel who kept "George Bailey" (Michael Thomas) from committing suicide when Bedford Falls' bank was failing. Terry won his wings by showing Michael the misfortunes that would have happened if Michael had never been born. A talented cast played several roles apiece, including Christmas song-leading (with audience participation) and constant sound effects. Applause, laughter, and good humor lifted our spirits. Re: Sonny http://AlumniSandstorm.com/Xtra/Sor/191208-Muscles.jpg I remember that cheerful young man weaving from side to side on his scooter. He called out to everyone he passed... "Hey Hey, ho ho!" Re: Maren's Tumble What a relief to know Maren's recovery from her tumble downstairs is progressing nicely without bruises! I still have bruises from my easy fall across the room on soft carpet. Bomber cheers, -Norma LOESCHER Boswell ('53) ~ in chilly, smoggy Richland ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Nancy MALLORY Johnson ('64) Re: $$ for SS Maren, My $$ for SS will be in t he mail in a day or two (check is written). Weather report has snowflakes and talk of sleet on tomorrow so may wait til Wednesday. Temps are not bad today but will plunge with this front - Tuesday night will be frigid. Re: Gmail Sandstorm seems to be on a roll lately and has gone to that **** place. [Yes, my Sandstorm has gone to SPAM the first 8 of 9 days in December. -Maren] Re: Big Day Is everyone ready for the big day? I know it is hard for many. My sister will be missing her daughter (who was the same age as my daughter). Re: Daily Sandstorm Maren, Sure do look forward to reading the SS with my cereal each morning (orange juice, not coffee with it). Thanks for all you do. -Nancy MALLORY Johnson ('64) ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Shirley COLLINGS Haskins ('66) Re: Bomber Boys' Basketball The basketball season for Richland opened on Friday for the boys with the team travelling to Spokane to play Lewis and Clark. Richland won 67-66. Saturday evening Central Valley travelled to Richland where the Bombers beat Central Valley 60-57. The next game will be at Dawald Gym on Tuesday, December 10, where Richland will play Coeur d'Alene. -Shirley COLLINGS Haskins ('66) ~ Richland where it is 38° at 2pm Monday afternoon. ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Don Sorenson (NAB) Re: It's Prom Time http://AlumniSandstorm.com/Xtra/Sor/191210_Prom_Time.jpg To: All Bombers I think I have the "other" article on Sonny but it will take sometime to find it. The two images accompanying this post contain names of former Columbia High students from the 1960 prom season. [Anybody remember who the King and Queen were? I'm glad folks enjoy what I send along and very appreciative of Maren for reducing the large images I send so they fit. Anyone who would like the large version of any let me know. -Don L. Sorenson (NAB) ************************************************************* ************************************************************* That's it for today.
