as Lincoln, Nebraska May 21, 1965 Dear Joan, Just a short note to tell you the latest word I have received of some of the students that were in our class back in 1959. Remember Rozella Beasterfeld, the one with the red hair? The one that thought Harvey' was all it. 'We1l, she is now married to a football player from Peru, and is coaching football in a reform school. Just yesterday I received a letter from Neal. He said he and his wife, the former Joyce Haeffner, are living a life of ease as janitors of Cook High School. After Joyce and Neal were married they had a long talk and decided to come back to dear Cook, one way or another. Then there's Shirley! the one living in Brazil. Do you know the guy she married? Well ---- it wasn't Clarence! You see there was this Big Thunderbird. I guess Shirley liked blue better-than she did red so she traded and that's where she ended up. Her husband and six childrename trying to build to their trailer house, with little luck. Delbert's mother wrote me the other day, that Delbert married that blonde he always flirted with in school. They are living on a huge ranch in western Nebraska. Delbert is quite busy training :his show horses and his twin sons. Mary Jane drove up to see rme' the 'other day. She' still Hasn't decided to get married. I guess 'cause she's so proud of her aqua and white chevrolet, and she's afraid her husband might end up to be a Ford man. That would be just horrible. She told me she saw Dale at the dance the other night. She said he looked just darling in his Air Force uniform. He said it wasn't as much fun as he thought it would be when he was way back there in the senior class because the first two years he was on K.P. duty most of the time. But he had the time of his life visiting the Tiajuana jail. You know he hasn't gotten married yet as Joyce is still going to school. Yes, Joyce is learning to be a registered nurse even though it 'is hard to believe. Joyce taking care of people, now, who'd believe that! She couldn't make up her mind between the Air Force and the academy, ann though the Air Force seemed like a much better deal. 'We all know she'D. get it straightenedxout sooner or later.
