Hello everyone- just tossing this out there. In my previous post I mentioned that I’m a licensed insurance agent in the State of NH - so here we are again looking at Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period and we already know there will be more changes coming as of October 2025 for Medicare, Prescription Drug Plans and Medicare Advantage Plans effective January 1, 2026.

If you’ve already got a healthcare insurance plan that’s been working well for you year after year I’d say stick with it. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it!

Anyone who already has a Medicare Supplement Plan (or has been able to keep their employer health plan) should be fine.

Anyone with a Medicare Advantage Plan - these are affected every year along with prescription drug plans because Medicare’s system is rewritten annually based on what Congress approves and passes.

If you have questions or just need…

Sorry I didn't make the 50th reunion but I will try and God -willing make the next one. So here's a little synopsis of my life since high school. I hated school and luckily was able to get through with good grades and little effort. Went to UNH because I had no idea what else to do. Carl Davis and I used to commute together often.

I graduated UNH in 1978, took a "summer job" at Pepsi Cola and married Mandy Stuart that fall. We had 2 children and spent 22 years together. My father died from a heart attack in 1980 at 50. A few years after that Mandy and I moved to the North River Lake house my parents owned, and built an in law apartment on the side for my mother. I spent the next 18 years as a route salesman, waterskiing, windsurfing, coaching youth basketball in…

I wanted to thank everyone involved in putting this great 50th Reunion together. I was a great night getting caught up with everyone and desperately trying to remember names!

It's quite amazing remembering the path you thought your life would take take as a teen, and then looking back 50 years later at its actual course.

After graduating SHS, I spent the next 4 years at Bowdoin College, graduating with a degree in English and visual arts, spending my first semester senior year studying at Wroxton College in the Cotswolds of England. Upon my return to Bowdoin, I fell in love for the first time - with a man. I'd known I was gay since early childhood, but never thought I'd meet anyone.

Three years later, the clandestine relationship a part of history, I moved to Denver to start a new life. Starting in 1984, I began my career in the computer industry, and in 1987 met my future husband, Jeff. Moving back to New England in 1989 we have now settled into our home on the ocean in…

First I would like to personally thank to reunion committee for your work and dedication over the years to hold this together. It takes time and effort and I am sure everyone appreciates your work even if they can't make it. I had attended a couple of the early reunions over the years but things sometimes get in the way like health, other commitments, last second problems and brain cramps.

I believe it was the 40th reunion that I attempted to come to. When I got to the Inn I went into the event room that was filled with people, looked around and recognized no one. Not a big surprise but no table for iD's etc. So I went to the reception desk and asked what room the SHS reunion was in. The woman looked at me funny and said "Oh that is next Saturday ". Feeling kinda stupid I…

Alex (Smith) Steelsmith has asked that I share his story of the image on the cover of our yearbook. I never knew this. Thanks for sharing it, Alex!

From @Alex S:

Seeing the yearbook on the reunion website reminded me of an interesting story about the cover from 50 years ago. I recall that one day Mrs. Anne Smith, the art teacher, suggested that we paint an image of an Indian for a potential yearbook cover.

I was honored when my painting was later chosen, but when the yearbook came out I was surprised that the image had somehow gotten “reversed” (like a photo negative). I never found out how it happened, but I assumed it was an accident.

Back then, reproductions were often made photographically, and it would’ve been an easy mistake to make—to use a negative of the photo rather than the correct image.  I’d like to send…

Auto mechanics, I got a hold off Austin Healey one of those little sports cars, convertible and everything like that I used to take it in there and get it worked on fix it up back in the day when you can do that kind of stuff.

Hey Dave & Deb Hemeon, Glen Tuttle with the Chevy Nova '72(?) 350 SS, it's me down here in Southern New Mexico and enjoying the dry heat. 😀

After High School, I joined the United States Air Force in June of 74, retired January 1995. I drove truck for 15 years locally and then I worked out on Holloman Air Force Base, NM for 10 years at Base Service Center. I retired at 65 and am just enjoying retirement retirement and doing the retirement thing.
