Of the nine still living today, four gathered recently at the home of local resident Bill Ramsey for a cookout and to remember old times.One class member, John L. Hudgins, made the trip from Georgia to attend. Also in attendance were Anna Thomas Harris, Robert Harris and Ramsey.“I had not seen John since he went into the Marines in the mid to late ’60s,” said Ramsey.
