H.B. (class of 61)
passed away today at about 1:30 pm. I received this information from
Jimmy Miramontes. If anyone has any updates as to arrangements please contact Walt Colbert or Danny Linn. I played center for the Bulldogs and H.B. was the quarterback. We were quite familiar with one another. He will truly be missed. Walt Colbert (aka Little Piggy) |

Denver is presently in SMU Law School. Judith graduated from North Texas State University with a B.S. in Education / English; and a M.Ed. '69 Art / Administration /English; She has also taken German and Italian language classes and also numerous computer certifications.

Her hobbies are writing poetry, travel, reading, fishing, collecting Madame Alexander Dolls (8"), antique collecting and selling, tennis (team & club), learning and doing all of the things I dreamed of as a girl. Judith had such a wonderful muse in Miss Mary Clark. Other teachers were grand, but she was outstanding! She was always encouraging Judith to do her best and assuring her that was indeed the best. She told Judith not to worry about being popular, just to be herself. She says that she was fortunate to have been "who we were, where we were, when we were." It was a fabulous time at North Dallas High. Judith's father graduated in 1923 from North Dallas - to Judith, he was the most important person to ever graduate from N.D. She was also glad that she did not peak in high school - she thinks the best is yet to come. | ||
