Sorry to report that Mr. Olbrys passed away on February 4, 2017 from an aggressive form of cancer. Many of us had him for biology, for driver's ed, or as a sports team coach. He and his wife Diane joined us 2 years ago at a small Newtown get-together at Sue Jones Higley's home near Orlando, and he was still the same feisty, funny guy.

Hey guys, it's one year to go for our 40th reunion! After the Great Newtown Reunion in 2013 I'm sure a lot of us would like to get together. Panacea (which evolved into Woodwind Clejj, Emily Band, and Voices, all of which played around town during our school years) is actually planning a big Newtown Reunion for Sunday, September 4, 2016. It would be awesome if we could plan our class reunion to cooincide with that! Maybe something Saturday/Saturday night for just us, then the bigger get-together on Sunday.
Anyone interested in helping plan? I'm in Florida so can't do much, but I'm willing to help as much as I can!
