I spoke last night with Barb McGee regarding Jim Marshall's passing.
It sounds like his death was likely a result of congestive heart failure, or at least complications that often go with that sort of problem.
Barb said we would see an announcement in this coming weekend's StarTribune. The plan as she understood it was for a 12:00 PM visitation at the Cremation Society of Minnesota (4343 Nicollet Avenue South) on Friday, April 26th, followed by the funeral at 1:00 PM.
I'll keep you posted if I hear more.

FYI.......
I was contacted Saturday with the news that Jim Marshall died Friday night. No additional information yet: I just went online to the StarTribune, but there was no obituary at this time. I'll keep you posted.

We received this message from Kathy Heikke this afternoon: wanted the two of you to be aware.
Having a good (non-snowy) time in Florida. It's rainy and very windy today, but that's not too hard to take at all.
Today was Mardi Gras..... party and parades, beads galore, followed by "Bushwackers" ( a frozen drink with lots of Bacardi 151 in it).... Let the good time s roll!!!

It goes without saying.... but should nonetheless be said LOUDLY...... that none of what we experienced the past two days would have been possible or nearly as enjoyable as it was without each of you and the many contributions you made on behalf of our classmates.
Friday evening was great fun and made even better by last night and this morning at the DoubleTree. The past 30 years of being involved in the planning helps me to realize that as fun as the evenings have been, it's the closer connections with with people like you that creates the best memories and feelings of accomplishment. It's the coming together that makes the staying together so special.
Thanks again for all that you have done for each other and our group. It will be fun to see the photos later on.
P.S. ..... remember, we'll be planning a post-party celebration, probably on our patio, in the very near future.... stay tuned for details. Thanks again,

To all NHS Class of '66 Grads and friends...........
Experiencing a last minute change of plans? Wondering if you can still get in on the 45-year class reunion?
While it may be too late to attend with the guarantee of a dinner, it's NOT too late to join your friends and classmates for the rest of the evening!
Graduates (and guests) who would like to attend w/o dinner can still come....... just check-in at our registration table and enjoy the reunion at a reduced cost of $20 per person (to cover event expenses).
If you are still thinking about it..... stop, make the decision and plan on attending!!
Remember: Friday night several of us are meeting at the MEDINA Entertainment Center (an on-your-own, come as you are gathering with great music).... and Sunday morning, we have arranged an on-your-own group breakfast time at the DoubleTree Hotel (around 8:30 am).
We hope you will be able to participate in one or more of the reunion events!!
"If you have never attended a reunion, we encourage you to come to this one and create a "fond memory" for yourself. We guarantee you'll be glad you did!!"

Hi to all........
Last week there seemed to be agreement that our next meeting to coordinate reunion events should take place at the beginning of August.
Carol and I spoke today and we propose meeting at her home ( 2338 Roosevelt Street N.E., Minneapolis.... 612-788-1700) on Wednesday, August 3rd beginning at 6:30 PM.
This will be an important time to finalize plans for the reunion; to coordinate who's doing what; and to anticipate last minute details that need follow-up.
Please plan on attending.

Hi to all...........
Only 7 weeks until the NHS '66 Reunion........ hope you plan on attending!
Not yet registered? Please contact us ASAP...... doing it sooner rather than later REALLY helps our efforts.
Special note: don't be fooled by a name change....... the Sheraton Bloomington (Hwy's 494 & 100) in a matter of days will officially transition to become a DoubleTree by Hilton. We suggest reconfirming any reservations to avoid surprises.
For additional information be sure to visit the website created by Floyd and Linda Ruggles........ go to nhs66.com and click on the school picture to access the site.
We do our best to spread the word and invite everyone...... you can help by sharing information with friends you are in touch with.
If they haven't been contacted, it's because we don't know where they are. Please have them contact either myself or Carol Pagel Haider (dhaider@isd.net or call 612-788-1700) for more information.
Best regards....... see you soon!

Dear NHS 66 Grads ..
About 345 reunion announcement and registration flyers went out in mid-May.
Of these, approximately 40 were returned as undeliverable in the U.S. mail.
Twenty of these have been re-sent to addresses that, hopefully, will find their way to our grads.
Below is a list of returned mailings that we had no immediate way of forwarding. Contact us ASAP with new information for anyone you know. In addition there are many, many more (about 190) whose locations have been a mystery for some time. Unsure about a friend? Call Terry Tompkins (612-922-9448) or Carol Pagel Haider (612-788-1700) to check on or share new information.
