While others rejoice in turning another year older, turning 60 can be traumatic for some. With that being said, the Lincoln Class of 1974 recently welcomed their classmates into the 60s club with a class reunion appropriately named: Lincoln Class of 1974's 60's Birthday/60's Hippy Theme Reunion.

On Sept. 30 and Oct. 1, laughter, music, dancing, and memories were shared by all. Those attending either one or both nights were: Janet Barker McConnell, Wendy Barker Baker and David, Colleen Crooks, Cheryl Danforth Robinson, Patty Fields, Davy Finical, Mary Flannigan, Bryan Freeman and Mary, Allen Haegele and Marweta, David Jameson and Melissa, Johnny Loftin and Kelley, Vera Napier Hall, Thomas Nichols and Jana, Karen Osborn Coleman, Marsha Pharr Hash, Janet Reed Mobbs and Mark, Darlene Reeves Cheatham and Jody, Bobby Russell and Dianna, LaRita Sturdy Carlton, Stacy Verity Dobbs, Darlene Walker Roach, Donna Williams Cross, Steve Williams and Sandy, Beth Wood Capehart and Art.

We would like to thank the following: Coach Bar-B-Que (Jim Sposato) for catering Saturday night; Harps for making cupcakes; Tony's (Jacquita) for making no-bake cookies; Mary Flannigan and Beth Wood Capehart for helping with the decorations and baking; and especially Bryan and Mary Freeman for letting us gather at their Rat Room Garage and for all the hard work they did to prepare for us to have such a great time together.

I am still looking for our class prophecy, graduation pictures, class trip pictures, sixth and 12th class trip pictures, slumber party pictures, and any other kind of pictures that you might have of our classmates. If you have any pictures, you can call or text Patty Fields at 479-966-7984, or email me at [email protected] .

Since we did have such a great time, we will be having another reunion next year. We missed the ones that could not come this year and are looking forward to seeing our Class of 1974 classmates next year. I will contact our classmates when final plans are made.
