Condolences for You & Family

I met him when He was in 10th grade at CHS...

I was in 7th grade, My sister Susie was best friends with 

Caroline (Curly) Curtis. This was circa 1959, I believe that

Tony & Curly did marry after Graduation in '61.

Your Father was so accomplished, in His own right, plus the

on-going dedication to His Father (Millard) .

This Site, thanks to the continued efforts of Sharon Esterly, is an important avenue for CHS Alumni. Sadly, so many have not been in touch since 2011 - 2014... Life is too short ??????

My guess... written by Sharon Esterly...

We lived at 763 Santa Barbara Drive and 

You were on Tulane corner at Santa Barbara Drive

I was friends with Paul Filoon ('63)

I recall being jealous of the Filoon Family as it appeared

(on the surface) to be the Ideal ??

Condolences to his Wife & Family.

Twenty-twenty three ... if only, knowing "then" that which We know now ! Nineteen forty six - nineteen sixty four, brief in scale to the span of life !
Our "paths taken", bifurcations abound, those choices formulate, adding to Our wealth of experiences ! We are the "numerators", this forum is the "common denominator" in the equation of life as We know it. Interchange of thoughts as well as ideas is crucial for Our joys and Our sorrows. "Retired" connotes ( fill in Your interpretation) a myriad of opportunities ! Twenty years retired, shifted paradigms allows for plus chapters in "My book" .
Regardless of graduation chronologies, dare to be a part of something larger, be another "town crier" for Claremont, CA !! Accolades sent to Sharon
Esterley, CHS- nineteen sixty one !!!!

The Pete Fullerton...he was a childhood friend and neighbour! The mid 1950s...the best time to be a kid in Claremont, CA! The "kids" were better at socializing and being adventurous! My fragmented family moved away from St. Bonaventure Drive in 1959, 12 years young, and will remember those days of innocence and laughter! Pete and Gaylord would always be involved in the street games when We stayed out until it was dark! Honored to have known the earlier version...with all his potentials yet to bloom! Rest knowing Your amazing contributions are Your legacy !!!

Lost but, not forgotten...or has he simply outlived his loved ones ! Imagine...his life lived as a Geologist, events to take him "into the field" and yet, apparently, made his home close to Claremont in Pasadena, CA !!  Perhaps, as You read this, You may be inspired to author sentiments here and/or otherwise souls !! R...I...P !!!

Billy Barbour...a fellow classmate  at Oakmont Elementary School. The summer between 8th and 9th, I had to move away from Claremont and all My friends. Fast forward to 1984...My wonderful wife, Marsha, accompanied Me and when We registered on Friday, he was just behind Us in line. 24 years...was how long it was since seeing any classmates, not enough time to attempt to "fit back in"! He was MIA here and on Facebook and now his story remains  untold, RIP My long lost friend !

Alex Hughes - I have, finally, solved "The Great Mystery of 1961" - in the summer of 1960, My Dad moved My older sister and Myself to live with his fiance (she was 28 - Dad was 51). i started 9th Grade in Fontana at Fontana Junior High. Mr. Hughes taught Student Government and Civics there and signed My 1961 Yearbook "Ladle" (part of the steel-making process). I asked him to sign next to his photo. Found that yearbook today, Jan. 9, 2021 (Joan Baez's 80th B-Day) published 60 years back! He was an excellent teacher, I let the teachers I enjoyed sign, very likeable and gave respect where respect was given. I read that He started his Claremont Career in 1966 - I believe He left the Fontana School District after 1964.smiley
