Just wanted to add a comment that i received my 2nd Maderma vaccine with not even a sore arm this time.

So glad all are doing well.  So disappointed that Alameda Co and CA isn't doing more.   I do hope we can reach the people out of city and hospital areas.  Everytime i hear about people driving 500 miles to a drug store I give thanks for all the people who dreamed, built, paid taxes to supply infastructure, yes that needs repairs, so we do have what we have.  Look back at our school, then torn down too soon.  We were blessed to have what we had. Bus lines, cars, walkability, and the campus itself, food running water, teaachers, coaches, and choices!  Not perfect, nothing is, but we had the use of it and reading what all of you say, it was pretty good.  Look who we have become.  I hear caring in a lot you post and to me that's very important.

Chris, I am so sorry for your loss.  I have just found some pictures of Locust St.  Two of little blond boys appear to be "fixing" a car, in front of my house 14354 Locust.  You first lived accross the street from me and then then Rielly Family bought your house and you moved 2 houses down from me.  The Jardine Family lived between us.  Your family was really involved in mine.  The 4 family, adults got together a lot for "theme" parties and Johnny Goodman and his wife Blance lived 2? blocks from us were a tight group.  Funny how it never turned to parties involving the kids.  Your mom took care of me after school, because my mom worked and later I took care of you guys.  I can say I always felt so safe and good with your family.  I'm now feeling the loss of not  having our families closer.  Peggy Wood

Dear fellow Vikings, this is a bit unusual.   I am a member of several Facebook groups, including Paul Revere and the Raiders FB group, Devo FB group, Anza Borrego Desert FB group, Madison Wisconsin FB group (I lived there for 4 years), Death Valley photographers FB group, and Joshua Tree National Park FB group.   Some of the FB group administrators are tough, and they delete photographs that are slightly off-topic.   However, just for self-amusement, I posted a photo of my rock'n'roll band on the Paul Revere and the Raiders FB group page, and added a paragraph listing the songs that we did by Paul Revere and the Raiders.  Also, I explained that Drew Johnese was our leader.   Strangely enough, the group administrator allowed my remarks and allowed the photograph, and the photo attracted 14 LIKES in one day.  

Peggy Wood (Guernsey) (1968)

Tom,

Micky Myers was in the band too wasn't he?  He's in Castro Valley last I texted him on Facebook.  I had talked to Drew quite a long time ago when he worked for the Fremont Fire Dept., my son also worked there.  Then at our 50 yr reunion Randy dumped the info about Drew having died on me.  I hung out with them while in school, but don't remember if I ever saw you guys preform.  I hung out with Drew's cousin Mike Castleton, and Tony Fleharty's group the Remaining Few in Hayward.  Linda Babbino was my next door neighbor and that's how I met Drew.  A really sweet kid.  I remember going to Battle of the Bands helping move equipt. and taking pictures.  I'm going through boxes and boxes and I promise to post if I find pictures from any of them.  Peggy

What a BLESSING Sam,  Your special Day has been given to you again.   

Hope you have a great Viking Proud day of fun and maybe your favorite gake.

Happiness is wished for you,

Peggy Wood (Guernsey) (1968)

Hey there, as I read Sam was having a BIRTHDAY I wanted to share a special time in my life too.

My Grandson Charles has been accepted to grad school.   He will be pursueing his masters in History to teach and couch football.  His goal is to come back to, one of our rivals, Tennyson High in Hayward.    Charles just also celebrated his 25th birthday.  This Grandma couldn't be prouder of anyone.  I believe Charles has the Viking Spirit in him and the compassion to explain the plays to Grandma when I miss something; ;-)  Kiss those kids, hug them well and get down on your knees and say thanks.  We are blessed and I do care about all of you.

I may not know you or see those I do often, but there is something so SPECIAL about all of you.  This forum brightens my day and sometimes my heart gets broken, but in the long run to know we are Vikings, we are here and we care about so much.   

Love to you all, Peggy

PS is Sam sharing his cake?

Janet Morris (Campbell) (1969)

This morning I lost my sister & best friend.  Linda Morris Henderson, class of 1963, passed away after a battle with Parkinsons disease.  Thinking of her I'm reminded of growing up in Mulford Gardens on Aurora Drive & what a fun childhood we had.  Even though I am 6 years younger than her, she occasionally let me hang around her and her friends.  She was a very cool sister!  I will miss her dearly but glad she is no longer living with this life sucking disease.....

Donna Bohrer-Abbott (Mayfield) (1963)

Janet, so sorry for the loss of your sister.  Linda and I had a couple of classes together and did a couple of projects together and had a lot of fun.  Rest in peace Linda

Kathy Almand (Wharton) (1969)

Jan, I'm so sorry to hear about Linda. She was always so sweet to us and later I remember going to her home and playing with Caroline. My heart is broken for you and your family. Keep your sweet memories of Linda close and cherish each one. I'm praying for you all and may God fill you all with his Peace and healing. 🙏💔🙏>p>

Elverta Yoshida (Yamanaka) (1963)

Sorry fir your loss Janet. Rest in Love Linda🌈❤️🌈

Jacqueline Willis (Pucci) (1963)

So sorry to hear of Linda's passing.  Although we drifted apart after high school, I considered her a good friend. She was sweet and funny and we had lots of laughs.  She will be remembered fondly. RIP
