This blog devoted to news and other interesting information to us, the Leuzinger High School Class of 1963. I hope you enjoy reading it and adding your comments.
In addition to leaving comments, you can also contact us via email.
We really want to hear from you. Tell us what you are doing, who you still stay in contact with from our class, or anything else. Especially, make sure we have your latest mailing address, home and work phone numbers, and of course your E-Mail address if you have one! Email is the best way for us to stay in touch with you and let you know what class activities are coming up. However, knowing your home address/phone is also important. We occasionally send out newsletters through the US mail, and besides email addresses tend to be pretty dynamic. So, please remember to update us when either of them change.

The above are currently our committee or core group members. Most of us have been involved with planning our previous reunions and activities for many years now. BUT, the group is not static by any means. We would love to have more of you join us. This is a standing invitation, so please let us know if you would like to get more involved. We have a great time when we get together, and on occasion even get some work done. 🙂

Class of 1963 
WHEW!
For an unsophisticated blogger, I had to search a bit for an entrance to this new addition! Several times, I tried to enter and ended up on Don’s photo class….ummmm. I really LIKE this format as I have become quite lazy about writing long and/or hand written notes and using snail mail.
My next “project” will be to look at the photos from the most recent reunion in S. Orange County. It sound like it was a small, but enthusiastic crowd. I am sorry I was not up for the festivities, but am working on making myself come out and join the REAL world again.
I have continued to be in touch with Marsha Blankenship, Donna McLaughlin, Ernie Case, Gail /Richard Liebig and (of COURSE), wonderful Don Stouder! Before moving to “out back” (San Diego) it was fun to have seen a few others (Shigeru Watanabe, Ben Warner, Ilona Lehet, Judy/Tom Hawley to name a few. I hope that some of you will remember that I’m in San Diego and would welcome contact with anyone who is so inclined. Does anybody know how I can get in touch with Neil Obright??? He wrote once and I have lost his email addess. Sending warmest regards to all of you, and hope to hear from any one of you.
Margaret Emig Hollins
LOL! Margaret. I am sure you have found Neil by now. He is on Facebook. If not let me know and I will give you info. Hope all is going well with you and yours. Love and miss you my dear friend!
Love, Sylvia

Laughed because this letter was dated back in 2009
Hi Margaret,
I’m so glad you wrote a comment. I wonder how many others will see it, since it is not on the main page. I know many others would want to hear from and about you.

Hello! I received a message from some “63” reunion committee…I assume it is this one!
Are we planning a reunion soon? Most likely, before we are all to decrepit to attend. Let me know what is going on….I am up here in San Francisco removed from the festivities of LA
Wishing you all well. Rita (Roney) Mundis

Hi Rita,
How you? I am so glad to see your comment. I trust things are still going well with you? Are still flying? Still flying the long legs to asia?
You came to the right place, blog-wise to see what is going on. We definitely are having a 50th – at least if I have anything to say about it! It is now less than two years away. Here’s what I plan to do within a very short time. I will send out an email asking the members of our normal “core” if they would still like to help plan our 50th. You would most definitely get a copy of the email.
About the same time, I plan to send everyone on our email distribution list basically asking if they would like to get involved this go around. I know Vicky Sechrist is interested. In today’s world, we certainly do not have to be local to help in the planning. One thing we all can help do is find missing classmates.
Keeping up with what is going on with our class has gotten easier. Many of our classmates are on Facebook. There is Leuzinger Class of 63 group and a Leuzinger group, which is very active and lots of fun. That is a good place to start. If you are already a Facebook user, I’m sure you know more about it than I do.
Look for the emails I mentioned coming shortly to kick off the whole planning thing.
In the meantime, take care.
Don
I am so happy to receive information of the 50 year class reunion I attended kindergarten first and second grade at Roosevelt, third forth and fifth at Kit Carson. Sixth grade Mark Twain, seventh and eighth Will Rodgers Ninth and Tenth at lulu tech. We moved to Compton where I graduated. I recall seeing Leuzinger class mated at Disneyland’s grad night. In 1993 I hosted a small 30 year reunion in San Pedro a few 63 class mates attended. I cant wait to visit with great people I was blessed to grow up with.
Hi Elbert
I am so sorry that it has taken me so long to Approve and Reply to your comment. Normally, I get an email that tells me someone has commented, Somehow that did not happen. I was there when you graciously hosted a great meal at your award winning restaurant in San Pedro. I believe it was called Sugars. Great food! I have added you to our class email distribution list, and will be sending you some overdue emails. I really hope you can make our 50th Reunion.
Thank you for responding. Do not concern your self with any return email delays. Believe me it’s ok. Heck I was coming anyway pay at the door or something. But add me to the list. If possible the comment I left on 63’s Leuzinger web page with Marsha Cochran’s name. If possible please delete I found out she has past. God bless her soul. Thank you i’m looking forward to our reunion.
Kelley.
