The enemy death claims another friend and classmate. During the thousand year reign of Jesus Christ, he will ressurect the dead to a paradise earth. My wife and I will again renew our friendship with Lydia and our worship of the Creator Jehovah God under the Kingdom rule.

Thank you, Michael, for articulating my own feelings at Lydia's passing. When I read Lydia's obituary, I thought of you and hoped you would comment since my denomination is not as word exact as Jehovah Witness. When I pass, I hope you and your wife feel welcome to comment online. Thank you!

I hope everyone who reads this understands how lucky we were to have attended CHS when we did. The education was extraordinary. I know, because when I transfered to a brand new high school in Everett, WA, I'd already had all the math and science they offered.
I've never been involved in the Class of '65, and looking back I want to thank all those fellow classmates that made the Class what it was, a special experience in time and space. And that especially includes the surging number of classmates we've recently lost.
Thanks again, and I hope you're all eating well and exercising.
