Started the planning stages for our next reunion - our 50th -"Cheers to 50 Years" which is going to be October 5,2024. Working with a great committee to put all the pieces together for a wonderful evening. As the plans come together, they will be announced via this website.

Our 45th Reunion -"Take time for the Sea" September 24, 2019 was a success!! It was an evening full of awesome music, great food and amazing conversations.  A big THANK YOU to all who made it the evening one to remember.

Planning our Reunions has brought together a great group of classmates & friends; it is a privilege to work them - the '74 Class Reunion Crew. Our goal is to continue planning events and gatherings that will provide opportunities to come together as group (large or small) to reconnect & reminisce with old friends and classmates. Looking forward to our next Reunion - we hope to see a huge flock of Condors!
 

As for me, a few changes in my life since our last Reunion.  I sold my house, moved in with daughter and son-in-law, we are planning to purchase a home together in the near future.  My sweet fur baby Mollie crossed over the Rainbow Bridge in Sept 2021 -  so grateful for the 13 awesome years with her.  We missed having a fur baby in the house so in December we brought home Zoey, a deep brown Boxer pup full of puppiness. She has brought us bounds of happiness for almost two years now.


In the meantime, this website is for the Class of ' 74 to enjoy - I hope everyone who visits this site will take a moment and leave a message for their friends & classmates. Please make sure you update your information so you are included in all the upcoming events. If you get a chance drop me a line and let me know how you are, what you have been up to lately and how you like the site.

 

Take care – see you there,

 After living in blissful solitude for many years, Dana Postil (Cal Hi '75) and I got married in December 2010.  He was the funny guy who sat in front of me in Mr. Mathews' Theatre Arts class for two nonconsecutive years.  We connected on a 'social network' in the summer of '10.  We'd both been single for several years, and it all worked out just great!  I loved being single, and I love being married, too, ...MOST of the time!

After High School I went into the military, after 3 years in the Army I finally got serious about studding. I moved to Houston to be with family and go to college. I have been here in the Houston area now for 29 years working as a designer the Petro/Chem industry.
I have two boys, 26 and 19 both still here in the Houston area.
 I enjoy unicycling, table tennis, softball, gardening and computers.
I have been happily married for 2 whole years now.
I have been a way from Whittier sense I was 17, I did not keep up with anyone so I would really enjoy hearing from ya’ll. 
Thanks to all that gave me great memories from the Calhi band and drill team. God bless you all. 
I hope to be able to make it in October.
Bill
