WEST LIBERTY – The West Liberty-Salem class of 1977 got together Sept. 2 at the residence of Peggy and Neil Wirick for the 40th class reunion. Thirty-four classmates, 26 guests and nine teachers attended, catching up with each other’s lives and posing at the photo booth supplied by Christine Yoder. Mike Flora traveled the farthest, from South Haven, Mississippi. Valerie Dickinson put together a booklet for those who filled out the questionnaire to see what everyone’s been up to, since there wasn’t enough time to cram all the information into one evening!
The group will gather again for Labor Day weekend in five years.
