I received the following email from Frank and Judy Fulkerson on Feb 13:
"Hello Tom and our other classmates, Judy and I received the info today on the 1968 Joss Reunion. I had already made our plane reservations. We are going to be flying into Sacramento on Wed. Sept 12 and renting a car. We will be staying in Calistoga, CA that night with our daughter and son-in-law. We will check into the Super8 in Cloverdale, CA the next day and stay there throughout the reunion, celebrating my 70th birthday on Sept 15, before returning to our daughter's after the reunion. Cloverdale looks like a great place to get together. We are somewhat familiar with both Napa and Sonoma Valley because our daughter Susan has lived in that area both before and since her marriage to a Sacramento man. She is a personal trainer in Napa valley and lives in the neat little town of Calistoga, CA which is across the mountain from Santa Rosa. Some of you might be interested in us taking you on a tour of Napa valley through Calistoga and St Helena, which we are familiar with and down to the town of Napa at the bottom of the valley which we really aren't very familiar with. Susan actually got married up in the mountains above St Helena. We are really looking forward to the reunion and spending time with all of you. Regards, Frank & judy"
WELCOME to this blog for the JOSS Class of 1968. This blog is for us, members of this class. It celebrates all of us, all that we are individually and as a group, and honors those who have died. Each one of us is uniquely graced and gifted.
Most of us first came together in 1956 at a little-known place in Central Ohio. Others arrived later. Whether we left the Josephinum before ordination or were ordained in 1968, we all followed uniquely individual calls.
We have journeyed through significant historical times - "Camelot", Vatican II, the Vietnam War, exploration of space, the civil rights movement, advances in communication technology, sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, growth in and loss of relationships, terrorism, medical/surgical breakthroughs, "Arab Spring", and much more.
The vision for this blog is to connect anew, share our stories, support one another.
Greetings! Jump on board! Peace and Shalom!
