Reunion - Class of 1959

Hi Class of 1959:

At our 50-year reunion, we had discussed getting together every 5 years instead of waiting for 10.  Some of our classmates are planning to be in Vicksburg the weekend of the annual Alumni Banquet, which will be held on Friday night, April 11, this year.   The class of 1959 would like to invite all our classmates to a Brunch at the home of Myrtle and Bobby Alvarado on Saturday, April 12, 2014, at 12 noon.  While we are visiting on Saturday morning, we can discuss any further “get-togethers,” for our classmates and spouses and members of other classes from St. Aloysius and St. Francis who would like to join us.

The address for the Brunch is:  2125 Cherry Street, Vicksburg, MS

Please contact Sue Fowler at (601) 429-5489 (preferred) or (601) 529-0825 (cell); or you may e-mail fsuziewong@att.net if you plan to attend.

Hope to see you in April!

Walter Pitts Little, Jr, died of congestive heart failure on December 13, 2013 free from fear, being confident of resurrection and eternal life in Christ. Dr. Little was born in Shreveport, LA on November 14, 1941 and was raised in Vicksburg, MS. He attended St. Aloysius High School graduating in the Class of 1959.  A graduate of Tulane University School of Medicine (1966), he completed his residency at Charity Hospital, New Orleans in 1970.

He also held a masters in theological studies, was board certified in anatomical and clinical pathology, and was certified to demonstrate special competence in dermatopathology. Walter found great happiness in learning, applying his knowledge to difficult diagnostic problems, and especially in the particular joy that is teaching. Upon his retirement from the clinical faculty at UAB, his former students established and endowed the Walter P.
