Class of 1959

We, the Class of 1959, celebrated our 50th reunion on April 24 and 25, 2009. This blog is about sharing memories of our class reunions and a long-ago life at our Alma Mater, S.F.X.A. and S.A.H.S. Good memories of days gone by but not forgotten! A gift to my classmates. ~Marian Ann Love ~

Kay's Halloween Visit

Group getting together before Kay returns to her home in Concord, California. Standing left to right, Pat Stamm, Ina Lott Whittington, Vera Marshall Brown, Katherine Meyer Turcotte and myself, Marian Love Phillips. Kneeling, Kay Hess Simms and Myrtle Loviza Curro (Alvarado).

(These are also our sorority pictures. When Kay came to town she wanted to come to our PAK meeting so she could see everyone. Pat Stamm attended S.F.X.A. until she reached high school and then transferred over to a public high school as did Barbara Ables Kinnebrew who passed away on Monday, December 15, 2008)

George Brown and Vera Marshall Brown and Kay Hess Simms.

Sue McNamara Fowler, Katherine Meyer Turcotte and huband, Roy Turcotte.

Kay Hess Simms and husband, Jim of California.

Myrtle Loviza Curro (Alvarado), Ina Lott Whittington and Sue McNamara Fowler.

I'm not sure when these pictures were taken but it was around Halloween a few years ago when Kay Hess Simms and her husband, Jim, came to visit her classmates and friends here in Vicksburg. Kay and Jim live in California and try to make it to Vicksburg every other year. Here we are eating out at Jacques in The Park, at Battlefield Inn. Left to right, Barbara Ables Kinnebrew (deceased), myself, Marian Love Phillips, George Brown, Vera Marshall Brown's husband and Myrtle Loviza Curro (Alvarado).

A View from the Past

Most of the buildings in this photo of Crawford Street taken about 1948 by Robert McCord from the top floor of the downtown post office are no long standing. Starting on the left was the Merchants Bank, the Catholic Church rectory, St. Paul Catholic Church, First Baptist Church and the telephone building. In the background is the Colbert Hotel, better known as the Carroll and in later years as the Jefferson Davis. The photo was given by Marjorie McCord Strickland to the Old Court House Museum.
