CLASS PROPHECY To the Teachers of Menno-Union High School: In June of 1959 the class of 1954 of the Menno-Union High School had a class picnic. I thought you might be interested in knowing what your old pupils are doing five years after we left Menno-Union High School. Although most of us are married we are still employed at various places of business. All but three of the members could be with us. The absentees were Ray Fultz and Jake King who are in the United States Navy and Quill Peachey who is serving with the United States Army. These are en- joying a prolonged picnic with Uncle Sam. Had any of us gotten sick at the picnic we would have been well taken care of by the two nurses in our presence. Rachel Esh is Super- intendent of Nurses at Lancaster General Hospital, and Patricia Mateer is a nurse at the Geisinger Memorial Hospital, Danville, Pennsylvania. We were very fortunate in having Helen Bigelow with us on this day, for, since her graduation she has traveled to many different coun- tries in the interest of Professional Girl Scouting. Tom Collins is an electrical engineer with the Westinghouse in Pittsburgh. His friend Don Smith is working as an electrical tech- nician at New Holland Machine Company. As you remember, Ken Grassmyer was always talking about Michigan. He is now working for his Masters in Engineering at Michi- gan University. Although J oe Young is now owner of Shirk's Motor Express of Lan- caster, he still has the urge to pilot his own trucks instead of hiring drivers which he can well afford. With Joe came Ernie Kauffman who is a diesel mechanic and takes care of Joe's fleet of trucks. There are seven of us girls still following the typing and dictation instruction Miss Nason and Miss Runkle game us in High School. Helen Krepps is working for the Sentinel Company in Lewistowng Donna Miller is a secretary at the Standard Steel Works in Burnhamg Geraldine Knepp is employed at New Holland Machine Company in Bellevilleg and Shirley Stuter and Janice Boxe are secretaries in the United States Navy. Patricia Grabbe and I are working for the Ameri- can Avisco Company in Lewistown. While seated around the table we looked back in thought over our years in High School and recalled the many happy hours we had spend at Menno-Union. We all now realize what you, our teachers, contri- buted toward our preparation for life. A member of the class of '54 SAW' Fu-vvvh-2 o-wivv Doris Anne Yoder
