Our Departed Classmates: a video tribute
Here is an updated video tribute to our departed classmates. This will be on display at Reunion 2023, in memory of those who can no longer be with us.
The video lasts 15 1/2 minutes, with 9 seconds devoted to each individual, but you can scroll through more quickly, if you desire (just hover your mouse over the timing ribbon at the bottom, and grab and move the red dot when it appears). And you'll probably want to maximize the picture for your device by going to Full Screen Mode (click on the little broken square in the bottom right hand corner).
Just click on this link: https://youtu.be/8MA5TLhUS9E
