Golf Tournament activities update

Bob O’Connor wants to remind classmates that the upcoming golf get-together in Palm Desert is not just for golfers. This activity is for all Azusa High Class of ’61. Non-golfers are invited and encouraged to attend the gathering on Saturday, May 22 and the Sunday BBQ following the tournament on the 23rd. The get-togethers are always a lot of fun and a good way to reconnect with classmates.

Bob is asking non-golfers to RSVP and donate $15 for an individual or $25 per couple. The reason he is asking for an RSVP and donation is because during a previous tournament weekend the host almost ran out of food.

Please mail your checks to Bob O’Connor, 26342 Mirar Vista Dr., Mission Viejo, CA 92692. You can reach Bob at (949) 364-0792.

Barbara Hawley Hartley needs our prayers

I visited Barb and Dave Hartley at OHSU yesterday and was deeply touched by the love they have for each other. They are truly best friends and soul mates, which their daughter, Betsy, so poignantly captured in this photo she took a few minutes after I left. Betsy wrote this caption for the photo “Dad says ‘Bring your camera. Mom’s skin is so soft and her color is just beautiful, even though we’re in the hospital.’ So I did. :)”

Barb and Dave want to thank Azusa High classmates for all of the uplifting cards and phone calls they’ve received.  Your continuing support means so much in her healing process.

Keep your prayers coming because they really need them right now.

Palm Desert Golf Tournament update

The Class of  ’61 Spring Golf Tournament is still being held at Shadow Ridge Golf Course in Palm Desert, however the location of the hospitality house has changed because the first location is no longer available. The bad news is that the new location is not within walking distance to Paseo Drive– it’s about two miles away. The good news is that the new location is only about a mile from Shadow Ridge. Another change is that the BBQ will now take place on Sunday after the tournament rather than Monday. Also, some of the early arrivals plan to get together on Saturday at the hospitality house for chips and dips, so be sure to bring your favorite golf stories.
