Subject: Vocational Technical High School 1965
I'm the son of Robert B. Kimber, Jr. - I called him this morning to go through some names in the class photo from 1965 and he asked, "where in the hell did you get those names from, I can't place them but I remember them."
"Bob" Kimber retired from the USAF in 1989, serving 2-3 tours in Vietnam, serving globally, and has been married now for 41 years. He currently resides (since 1983) in South Carolina.
Please keep me informed of any future reunions or if any would like to contact him. He mentioned a name of someone who used to cheat off of him and someone having some weird car. Memories came quick to his mind and I'm sure he'll think about it all day. Great Page - nice to see him in his younger years!

Hi my memory fails me but I believe I attended Voc-Tech in 1964-65
Harold:
I went to Carpentry and Cabinet Making.
My brother Carl was in Auto Mechanics.
I remember Mr Walker was my favorite teacher.
We would go to the Italian Restaurant on top of the hill for lunch, and grab a meatball sandwich.

Don,
I just stumbled on to the web site and I think it's great. I graduated in 66 from Automotive and every time I drive by on 146 the memories just come flooding back. From Paul Charon's Dodge Charger to Charlie Pickles 58 Chevy. I still sing Mr St. Piere's "What do you do when the rent comes due, Pay up or screw". I still think of Frank Dolan's towering presence over the Auto Shop. If anyone from the class of 66 wants to communicate I'm at pabouvier@comcast.net.
This is just a great site.Brought back a ton of memories.
Thanks for the memories,
--
Paul A. Bouvier

Just observing Memorial Day, trying to give a few minutes thoughts to someone from RI that died in VNM. [I was still a kid in Warwick.] I came across George Jacob Mack, and then on this page Lucien Carpentier. I've given these guy's who died so darn young some thought today.

Special thanks to my longest and dearest friend Donald (Duck) Deluca for creating this site and keeping all the wonderful memories of our youth alive. What I'd give to walk those hallowed halls of the school once more as a teenager. Who could have thought that the memories of those school days would be so precious to us in our old age.

Guy's it was wonderful getting to visit with everyone, after 47 years away, at the reunion Oct. 4, 2008. It was emotional for me, being a graduate of the first 3 year 1961 class. It was especially great to see and visit with Mr. "O" and the guy's from the 61' class. Keep me posted on any upcoming events and anyone from the 61' or later classes can keep in touch for networking etc. Thanks guy's - keep up the site. Mike
