Faces of Our Past

1990 Reunion of Lee High School Classes 1964-65-66

(Parts 3 - 4 - 5)

A Video by Niles Prestage, LHS '65

One of my prized possessions from my Lee High School association is a copy of the VHS video tape Niles Prestage, LHS '65, made during the 25th Reunion get-together which took place in 1990. I am happy that later in my life I converted it to a digital format and was able to upload it to youtube.com. I have shown these video clippings in Lee's Traveller in the past, but now is an appropriate time to once again feature them. Previously they were only shown in five minute clips per week, but since the next reunion is quickly approaching I decided to show them in groups of three (approximately 15 minutes total per week). There are 22 5-minute segments available. Included in these videos are many who are no longer with us, and it is great to once again see their smiling faces and hear their voices. 

As noted above, I regret we don't have any better information on the passing of George Vail, but we will update the newsletter when we get it.

Thanks for the positive responses to viewing the old reunion videos and don't worry we will continue them.

The reunion committee is still working hard on the final plans for the upcoming reunion. Again, we ask any of you who talk to your classmates to please let them know what is going on.

Linda Taylor, LHS '64, has created the Facebook group "Lee High School Huntsville AL Reunion 2022" and everyone is encouraged to join it and participate in the discussions. Please look it up and join if you are a Facebook user.
