MessageI am in West Valley, Ut. Thanks for inviting me to this site Vonnie...sorry, I haven't been in touch but look forward to reading your journal. I am sorry to hear of Niels passing, but I know that he is in a far better place, and that someday we will be able to meet again as Warriors in the skies...I missed out on the recent reunions but I remember the one reunion that I attended with Donna Holt (Tolman), and it was a blast seeing everyone even if most of my classmates I knew weren't there. Maybe someday I will be able to attend another one, but know that my days at Yamato are remembered with fondness. As well as my times in Japan period! Love, Velma

MessageGreat site, Vonnie...thanks for the memories. 1961 seems so long ago, and just a short time ago at the same time. Great memories, great times, and great people.
Peace to all....Mary Jane

MessageI enjoy reading each chapter on the reunion. When reading chapter 4 I notice an error on where Mary Garret Frey is from. She lives in Arkansas and not Alaska. I would like to say I have been coming to the reunion since 1999, except the one in 2001 and this had to be one of the best yet. It seem like everyone was having a good time. I know John Irving (66) Bob Mutu (66) and myself had a great times dancing with all the lovely ladies there. Loreen Correll (65), Holly Correll (66), Mary Frey (65) and Pam Mathis (65) were outstanding company for us.

I'm looking forward to reading Chapter 5. smilie

MessageThanks Vonnie for all you do with your web site. I haven't really looked at or read it very often with my busy schedule, but I had to read the story about Jim Short. He touched my life for a short while before he left us all. My husband, Micheal, and I gave him a ride to the last Reunion he attended ('05.) I learned that a fellow Warrior, Jim, was in the close vicinity of our house and we offered to give him a lift. We had a great time chatting and talking about Yamato before my time('68-'71.) Never knew he was a "teetoteler." Never saw that side of him. Did see that Jim loved being in the family of Warriors and enjoyed every Reunion being able to connect with his impressionable young years growing up. Again, thanks for caring so much, Vonnie.

MessageI enjoy reading all your adventures Vonnie. smilie I know if I can't be at the reunions that you'll give the best account as to what was happening. Your so open and candid! The best kind of writer. I bet it has a lot of therapeutic qualities too! Just want to send you my best from "Crispy" Poway, CA! Yes we did evacuate, only a few miles from the fires, but thank God, came home to our home a few days later. We live on the Rancho Bernardo/Poway city lines. It's the second time now that we have come close. A most humbling experience. Hugs to you and I hope to make one of these reunions again. Susan (Hulse, my sister) and I will get there again, I'm sure.

All my best, Jan
