Don Ball '59 and Sharon Bentley '60 were joined in Holy Matrimony on April 9, 1965 at the Wesley Methodist Church at 54th and El Cajon Blvd. Recalls Don, "During the ceremony it rained and hailed a lot. Afterwords my best man, the late John Whaley, drove Sharon's 1963 Mercury Comet to the Town and Country in Mission Valley. However, the San Diego River had flooded most of Mission Valley and some guests could not get into the parking lot. Next day we flew from the old Lindbergh Airport to San Francisco."

Anybody have any ideas on what to do with 1,000 Ramona's Marriage Place postcards? I published the cards 35 years ago, using -- I believe -- a 1928 Walter Averett photo from the San Diego Historical Society. Unlike some of the other cards in the series, they never sold. I thought maybe I would donate them to the gift shop of the Estudillo House (there never was a Ramona and she didn't get married here) but I don't think there IS a gift shop in the Estudillo House. It's part of the State Park System I believe.
I'm giving Ron "The Cannon Man" Dixon '64 the final word on how to blow up night crawlers. "Any old Dynamite Fisherman knows either BP, C4, or Gel Max works wonders," says Ron

The U-T San Diego, on April 3, reported the passing of Danny Griggs. He was born October 3, 1954 and died February 23, 2015. We think he was the Danny Griggs in Crawford's Class of '72. Does anyone know if Danny had sisters or brothers who went to Crawford?
