Welcome to the Bladensburg High School Class of 1959 Home Page! This web site was developed for and dedicated to the Bladensburg High School class of 1959 and also to the graduating classes of 1957, 1958, 1960 and 1961 as we all briefly passed through the same hallways some 50 years ago.  All members of these classes are welcome to use this site and sign the guestbook.  Some of the pages at this site are password protected but if you attended Bladensburg during the 1956-1961 period then you should know the username (our mascot) and password (our principal’s last name). I started by creating a music jukebox containing some of the great music of our era, the mid 50s to the early 60s, in the hope of attracting the interest of classmates and making it possible to add new content.  With your help I hope to add a NOW and THEN page that would include a current and an old photo of each classmate side-by-side; an IN MEMOIAM page that would include information about deceased classmates; and a MEMORY LANE page that would include contributions by classmates of their fondest memories from our school years.  So if you have any photos in digital form, whether current, from past reunions, or from our school days, that you would like to share with classmates, then SCAN THEM (if necessary) into digital form and send as email attachments to bladensburghighreunion1959@yahoo.com.  Along with the photos, please include the name or names of those in the photo as well as where and when the photo was taken. Please NOTE that I plan to password protect all of the personal material contained at this site so that it can only be viewed by our Bladensburg High School classmates. Click HERE if you'd like to send me a message. Enjoy the site and thanks for visiting.

That is why we are asking for your help to populate this page with photos and other memorabilia from our youth.  So, if you have photos, newspaper articles or other memorabilia that you would like to share with classmates, then please send those items to bladensburghighreunion1959@yahoo.com Let's get started now. Search through your albums and scrapbooks for any items that you feel would be of interest.

Your Prayers Can Help We need the power of all of your prayers to help classmates and their loved ones who are going through difficult times. Marla Gerster Allen is asking us to pray for her oldest daughter Kim. "My oldest daughter Kim has had a double mastectomy. She will learn soon what follow-up treatment is needed. Two lymph nodes were positive. Prayers appreciated, please! Marla Gerster Allen (1/25/2012)" Dale Woolwine is recuperating from quadruple bypass surgery. Please join with family and friends in praying for Dale's full recovery and return to a full and active life. Ron Franks is fighting the effects of two strokes. Below is an email from Bootie Avery Mason describing her conversation with Ron on 8/1/11. "Talked to Ron Franks tonight and it is true that he had a stroke last September and then a second one five months later. He has had a lot of rehab and tomorrow he will fly with his wife to Mayo Clinic to see if they can help with his left leg and foot. He is not in a wheelchair but does use a walker. He will be back next week and I will call him then to see how things went. Prayers would be good to help him get better. I plan on seeing him before I head back to Florida. Bootie" Doug Moreland is battling cancer. Below is an email that Doug sent to some of his friends on 3/30/11. "Hello All, I went to the Dr. yesterday, he showed me the readings of my Cat Scan on the computer monitor, the Cancer tumor has shrunk one half the size it was before my Radiation treatment. I asked if that meant I had to have more treatments, his answer was no it would keep shrinking & we would keep an eye on it. We made an appointment for another Scan in July with hopes to see more shrinkage. I hope all is well with all of you & your families & look foward to seeing you as soon as possible, come see me when you can. Love you all, Doug" Update: Doug wrote back saying he is doing better, playing golf, and tumor is less than half original size due to SBRT radiation. He still uses oxygen but is otherwise free to do what he wants, and sounds upbeat as of 10/14/11. Arlene McKinney Grove Please keep Bootsie, Ron and Doug in your thoughs and prayers during this special time. If you would like to submit a prayer request for someone that is going through a difficult time please click HERE and complete a short form. I will post your prayer request here within a day of receipt. And please remember to pray for the safe return of all the brave young men and women serving in the Armed Forces.
