Grade 8A 1958 - 1959

Grade 8A teacher I believe is Miss Cue, Randy's sister. First row (2) is Diane Gibson, (4) is Rose Hill and (6) is Diane Miller. For row two, (1) Rick Petrzilka, (2) is a Wood and (5)may be Diane Schuenaman. Third row has Fessler, ?,?, Bob Gould, John Brader and Don Evans. Fourth row is Nail, Dunnett, Schacht, Duber Westrom, Sprague, Thompson and ?, ?

Amazing how the faces are familiar and the names won't surface.

Thanks, Tom. I looked in yearbook for Wood's first name. There was a Francis Wood in our freshman class, but he's a male. Row 2 person 2 is female, so I did not include a name for that position.

You are certainly correct about familiar faces but names not being forth coming!

Reid, You have Diane Gibson listed as Donna and I think Jim Thompson is really Jerry McVicar. This is going to take lots of collaboration to get all the names correct.

I guess I should check the website more than once every nine months. Just going from the photo captions (I have not read the other comments) here are some more names: The homeroom teacher for 8C is Joseph Cheli, who died the following school year. Staying with 8C, L2R, R1-3 is Anita Zarate. R3-1 is not Randy Cue, it is Larry Nelson. R3-3 is Neal Ronzheimer, R3-4 is Fred Schnitker, R3-7 is Fran Kammes. R4-2 is Robert Estrada, R4-3 is David Metzger (graduated from Wheaton Academy), R4-5 is Eliot Gage, R4-6 is George McGrath, R4-7 is Reginald Haag. Moving to Homeroom 8A, L2R, R1-3 is Barbara Phillips, R3-1 is not Tom Fessler, Tom is next door at R3-2. R3-3 is Jay Kramer, R3-4 is Peter Moore. R4-7 is William Baxter.
Homeroom 8B, L2R, R2-3 is Randy Cue, R2-4 is David Bruce,R3-7 is James Vidlak.
I think folks at a reunion could make short work of this, because just about everyone remembers someone from those years!

Thanks Terry. I finally got around to updating the 8th grade picture IDs. Check it out. Also, you helped me remember some 7th grade names, so DOUBLE thanks.

Your reunion suggestion is perfect since we have our 55 Year Reunion later this year. I will print these pictures on plain paper so we can write names directly on the photo.

Hope to see you at our 55 Year Reunion on October 20th.

What ever happened to Colin Pinkerton?

I don't remember Colin. Was he in 7th, 8th or both grades? Do you recognize him in any of these pictures?

Hey, Terry, FYI - Several classmates at today's winter event filled in most of our missing 7th and 8th graders. One problem in class 8A, the back row 7th person has been identified as both William Baxter and Jerry McVicer.

8A still has 3 people without names.
bB still has 3 people without names and one, Row 2 1st person, whose last name nobody could recognize (Norma Jean ?????).
8C still has 3 people without names.
7 still has 3 people without names.

3 seems to be the magic number..

Thanks for your input Terry. While I was a Winfield student it's good to have the right names with each pic. Reid can get into more detail with you on that subject. Hope you're seeing the early planning for a 55 year event at the Holiday Inn and that you'll be there once again.
