A surprise Facebook message made my day.
A sweet friend of mine found a newspaper clipping from 1964 that featured me as one of the candidates for Homecoming Queen. Honestly, can't recall seeing the photo, so you can imagine how good it felt to see myself as a senior in high school. Thank you from my heart, dear Cindy, for forwarding the photo on to me. This was an act of kindness that puts a gold star beside your name!
As it turned out, I was chosen to be the 1964 Homecoming Queen, and that was the only year that our school had a Homecoming King. To this day, when we see each other at class reunions, he calls me his queen and I call him my king. How sweet the memories that soothe the elderly heart.
A charming blast from the past. Thanks for sharing.
