Gray Panthers North Get Together in Blairsville, GA

Ceil (Duke - 1956) and James Jordan hosted a get together of MHS dislocated alumni at their home outside Blairsville, GA, on Friday, October 20, 2006. There were 18 or so dislocated Mulberrians and spouses at the hamburger/hot dog, beans and potato salad affair. We all had a great time reminiscing and telling tall tales! Also attending were: Joan (Moody - 1952) and Bob (1949) Ghiotto, Glenda and Ron (1956) Caraker, Nancy and David (1956) Burdette, Sheila and Richard (1956) Matthes, Martha and Gibby (1956) Mathis, Gayle (Earp - 1956) Speer, Jack and Sandra (Foster - 1956) Amaral, Barbara (Matthes - 1957) Alderman, and Red (1960) and Karen (McQuaidy - 1962) Campbell.

Karen Campbell took this group photo, so she's missing from the pic.
