Bill Riddle, '59, in Army Initial Entry Fixed-Wing Flight School at Wright Army Air Field, Ft Stewart, GA, 1970.  That looks like a T-41 Mescalero in the background -- also known as a Cessna 172.  Click HERE to look at the Colts Who Served Page again.

Sorry to disappoint so many people, but George Fogelman's annuals went to a good home.  Marcia Sleet '59 desperately wanted the '58 annual.  I had to break it to her that it was from Horace Mann, not Crawford.  Click HERE to look at the on-line version sent a while back by Bob Richardson.

Tom Cassie's scanner isn't working, but he still was able to send a pretty good photo of his 7th Grade Horace Mann C Championship football team.  Click HERE for an enlargement -- with names.

Dale Adams ‘60 passed away February 27th, from pneumonia, in Lake Havasu City Arizona.  He leaves his wife Ruby and his son Paul and daughter Renee.  He was a heavy equipment operator here and retired to Lake Havasu City -- Gary Morris ’61

Celeste Persley Lilley graduated in 1975, one year before her peers.  She passed away May 13, 2021 in Washington state from extended health issues. Celeste and I met in drama class at Horace Mann Junior High and became best friends. She was adventurous, spirited, and daring – everything I wanted to be.  She had a lovely singing voice and played the piano beautifully.  We lost touch after high school. Celeste met and married the love of her life, Bill Lilley, and they moved to Gardiner, Washington, on the Olympic Peninsula.  I reconnected with Celeste after I moved to Washington with my husband. It was like no time had passed.  Celeste and Billy would stop by for a visit on their annual motorcycle tours, and we would visit them on the peninsula.  Celeste was a passionate animal lover, and a fierce friend.  She loved rock and roll, dogs, the ocean and her beloved Billy. The world is a little less wild, a little less adventurous without Celeste in it -- Wendy Williams ’76
