Name: Leslie Hamburger
E-Mail: laburger@cyberdude.com
Maiden: Carlisle
Class: Lawndale 1974
Message: Hi! I graduated from Lawndale High in '74, but grew up in Hawthorne (Holly Glen). In 7th grade (R.H. Dana Jr. High), we found out Hawthorne was overcrowded and those of us living south of 138th St. would have to go Lawndale. My four years at Lawndale were lots of fun, but I did miss those friends that I had known since kindergarten. Fortunately, one friendship survived the separation and all the changes of growing up...my friendship with Sharon Shufler (now, Demarest). She's my dearest friend, my sister and blessed to still have her in my life. I live in Maryland now, but when I visit my parents in Hawthorne (still living in the house I grew up in!), my memories of growing up in the South Bay are fond ones.

Message: Message: Boy does this page bring back some great and not so great memories....mostly great. I recognize a lot of names but wish my yearbooks hadn't been lost in the move of '78. Does anybody know where one could get old yearbooks.
Looking through the teachers list brought to mind some of the unusual teachers/staff that were ommited, Kermit Bennet, Mr. Cracciolo, Mr. Lordi(God did he hate me!!) and Miss Joyce Selz, in whose office I spent a lot of time. Anyone knowing the whereabouts and/or staus of any of these let me know. Thanks.
Hardy
p.s. didn't we all love the convex mirror located in the norteast corner window of the girl's locker room.

Class: 1975
Message: John, You contacted me a year ago and I am amazed at the web pages you have put together since. Especially the number of people on the list. Cruisin' from A&W to the Witchstand, then up to Stocker St. to Dance at Monty's on the Hill was a pastime my sister did in the 60's. She attended Lennox High (unfortunately). The principal of Lennox school came to Hawthorne but I can't remember his name or how long he stayed.
Thanks for a real nice effort on your part!

We love you, John for the gift you've given us.

Note: Karen, And no one woulda' known either, if it wasn't for my good friend Linda Reynolds. :o)
Thank you for your kind words, however it's all the Alumni and people like Coach Chauncey who contribute to the site through Remembrances, adding themselves to the Alumni List or through this Feedback Page and Reunion Information. That's what it's all about to me. If all the people who visit this site would add something, then the Site would be enriched through them. Oh, and yes, I had a great birthday today. It was THE BEST.
