Anna Sparks and I checked off the attendees as they came in, and I kept a list with the intention of using it to post here on the Mavahi site. However, I turned my back to speak to a few friends as they were leaving. When I turned around to gather up my things, my notes and booklet were gone.....??????
Thank you Leon Custer (class of '63), for kindly sharing your list with me. I will only add the name of the town for those living outside of the Martinsville/Henry County area. For the most part, I think this list is accurate, but if I've missed anyone who was there, or mentioned someone who was not there, please feel free to add a post of your own to make the correction.
