Mavis Daniels Tompkins ('52), a longtime faithful contributor to this site, lost her husband Loren Tompkins ('52) yesterday morning. Here is her message:

THE FAMILY OF LOREN  TOMPKINS
  We are so sorry for you loss, Mavis.

I have not seen anyone say anything about Goble, and his barber shop on Afton Parkway? He had  people coming from Virginia Beach to get him to cut their flat tops. One day I was going into his shop to get a hair cut, and he told me , no more today I'm closed  I am going fishing   George Presson class 1954.

Note: Goble's Barber Shop was located at 64 1/2 Afton Pkwy. Mr. & Mrs. Goble lived at 12 N. Fairview Ave. Mrs. Goble was living at that residence when she died in 1993. Mr. Goble died in 1981. Does anyone else remember Mr. Goble's flat tops? Thanks George, for the memories.

To whom it may concern,
My name is Melinda Seckman. I am the daughter of Diane Scott Black, Cradock High School Class of '61. I wanted to inform you that my mother was killed in a car accident on January 25. Below is the obituary that was printed in the Richmond Times Dispatch on January 27th. My family would be honored to have her listed with the other fallen Admirals. Please include her senior portrait if that is still available.
Thank you very much.
Melinda Seckman

Melinda, I am so sorry for your loss and thank you for allowing us to include her on our site.

A disturbing discovery about the Northern Star Credit Union (formerly Navy Yard Credit Union) was made by The Allison boys when their father passed away recently. I am posting this because so many people from Cradock worked in the Navy Yard and some may have this same account. If you do, you should inquire as to the status of your account.

Years ago, the Navy Yard Credit Union offered accounts ($2,000) that would double at death. They allowed an account for the member and one for the spouse. Mr. Allison signed himself & his wife up for one of those accounts forty three years ago, but when his boys went in to claim the benefits they were told that benefit program was stopped. When Mr. Allison's wife died in 1992, the benefit was honored. No one in the Allison family was notified of this change.

Both of the Allison boy's had this same account for themselves and their wife but when told it was no longer in effect they removed the money and placed it somewhere  that it will draw some interest. There's not much interest available anywhere now but think about the years gone by that it could have been drawing interest.

The Come Home to Cradock video from 2008 is back on YouTube. It may be temporary. Last time it was removed from some reason. Click on the link below to get a preview of what's in store for you this year.

Cradock Alumni & Friends is now on Facebook.

First, I'd like to say thank you so much for your efforts and devotion to this web site.  I had no idea the school had closed.  I attended for two years, 1964 and 65.  I've recently been looking up old friends.  I would like to find a person who was my best friend when I lived in Cradock.  Her name is Sheila Michaels.  That was her maiden name.  I have no idea if she is married now or not.

Thanks again for your hard work!!

Lynn Jenkinson

Update: This gentleman has found a family member in California who may be able to help him with information about the Burnham family. Thank you to anyone who offered suggestions.

Yesterday, a triple "Cradock thing" happened at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond.  I, Glenn Stephens (Class of '74) gave my brother, Charles Stephens (Class of '68) a bone marrow transplant, as his wife, Carolyn Stanley Stephens (Class of '72) stood beside him.  Please keep our family in your prayers.  Charles has a long road ahead of him in his battle with leukemia.

Received this from Len Hamilton class '69. Rocky Smith was in the class of '68. Steven Smith attended Cradock but dates are unknown. I'm sure some of you remember him. Please keep Steven and his family in your prayers.

Hi fellow ADMIRALS  This is my message to all Cradock alumni....My name is Shelly Wilson (Doolie lil sister). I'm from the best class of *1988*....I would like to say hi to everybody that had the HONOR to attend the great DOCK, even
if it was for a semester. I  want all ADMIRALS to know I am one of the biggest Cradock fans ever.  I still talk trash to
my non Cradock friends about the best PORTSMOUTH school  and marching band  ( FLAGS )....Something to make all proud ADMIRAlS smile, when I attend I. C. Norcom's game and they sing the alma mater at the end of the game I shout loud as possible CRADOCK'S alma mater   LOL. When they say the school that we love best I shout OUR UNCONCOURED CARDOCK HIGH....I saw a message from c/o 85 Dennis White and Craig Cook they both should know my brother Hermon Wilson or (Doolie)  and c/o 92 Admirals should know my cousin Tinishia Stephenson. I
would like to purchase a Cradock T-shirt I can be contacted at imabrat301@hotmail.com

If you are on Gail Baker's email newsletter list, you have already received this.

Do any of your remember Mr. Smithey?  Seems like janitor at Cradock for 900 years.  Thanks to Larry Hollowell (61) for letting us know about him passing.  I was positive there was a picture of him somewhere in one of the annuals but can't find it in any of the years in my possession.  If any of you have a picture please forward so we can
put it along with the obit on the memorial page. (Photo found)

Is it possible to add this to our web site. I think it would be a good idea for alumni to be in touch with the current concerns of the Cradock Community and to have access to the council members.
Thanks-
Bev

Eight more issues of the newsletters published by the class of 1953 are now online. Several of the newsletters are in color and really look good not to mention they hold some very interesting  and comical information. Those kids knew how to have a good time in the 50's and continue to do so today.  Take a look at them at this link

"The Admiral"

(12-30-2008)

There are additional issues of "The Admiral" newsletter now online. "The Admiral" is the newsletter published by the CHS of 1953. These are some of the original issues when "The Admiral" first came into existence and Fred Zerkle was the editor. Many of them are in color and have different fonts, icons and some great pictures. They are very interesting and appealing to the eye. There are four new issues now online and many more to come.

Barbara Toth Underwood, class of '57.  My current email address is bpunderwood@bellsouth.net.  Thank you for all you do to keep this great site up to date.  What a great site! 

An old issue of the school newspaper, The Shipmate, was provided by a 1960 senior. It is dated June 9, 1960, the last issue of the year. It was printed on 10 x 14 paper.

The Shipmate, Thursday, June 9, 1960

Note: An obituary appeared in the 12/14/2008 issue of The Virginian-Pilot. Odford would probably have been in the class of 1959.

Hello, My name is Derek White. I graduated from Cradock in 1987. I played 3 years of varsity basketball. Some of the old timers are playing in an Old School basketball tournament at Woodrow Wilson high on 12/26/08 starting at 4pm. I wanted to know if we can post this on our site? We would like all alumni to come out and cheer us on. The field consists of: 1st game young Wilson vs Norcom......2nd game Manor vs Cradock and 3rd game Old Wilson vs Norcom.....Norcom has posted this information on their website and you know their fans will be out. The cost for all 3 games is $5 for adults and $3 for kids.

Janie, Sammy Baugh died this week at age 94-95.  He was a great Redskin Quarterback from 1938 to 1952.  Our Cradock Coach Larry Weldon played with him on the NFL Championship team in 1942.  In the photograph above from the Virginian Pilot this week is #31 Larry Weldon’s backside as he pulls out to block pass rushers for “Slinging Sammy Baugh”. bk

It was reported to me today that Roger Glenn Williams, class of 1954, passed away Feb. 8, 2008.

Welcome back to Cradock, Michael. Class of 1973, remember Michael? Why don't you contact him. Sounds like he would be delighted!

Today I did a blanket email verification for all of the classes of the 1950's. I received this from the email address listed for James Aydlette. Please keep James' family in your prayers. I'm sure the holidays are going to be rough for them.

To update your website, my husband James E. Aydlette passed away October 30, 2008.  We live in Greene, New York.   He graduated  from Cradock High in the class of 1958. I am including a copy of the details.  Thank you ,
Alice Aydlette See James Aydlette's Memorial Page Here

It is with great regret we report the passing of Donna Hahn class of 1962.

This is a great start to Carol Galford's request to hear from or about former Cradock teachers.! Any other teachers out there? Please contact Carol Galford at hollydune@verizon.net  or call 757-422-3060.  
Thank you Mr. Affeldt. We truly appreciate you and your support to the Cradock website. This is such interesting information. Feel free to add to it with another edition at any time.

I received email identifying another child in the old Williams Court Kindergarten Photo located at my Rootsweb site.

Hello--
My mother is in the photograph.  She is second row, #4.   Maureen Ann Doyle.  She is retired and living in Virginia Beach. 

Thank you to Sean O'Connor.

A message to any former Cradock High School teachers who may visit this site. I have heard comments such as this from other students of yours. They appreciate you more and more as time goes by and they will never forget you and your guidance!

Hi Janie, Thought you might put this on our website when you get a chance.  It would be great, as Ken stated below, to let all the teachers know how much they are still loved and appreciated.  I know many have passed and don't really know how many are still with us.  I know Vito Morlino, Charlie Wade, Richard Huneycutt, Harriet Heath and Sharon Harold are still alive, to name a few.
Thanks,
Carol Galford Edwards '61'

Hello, my name is Ken Capps and I attended Cradock from 1956 to 1959. I often think about the wonderful teachers I had. I visited the Cradock website and see a lot of them are gone. I wish I would have taken the time to let them know how nice they were to me. Now, for most of them, it is to late to let them know. The ones that are still with us, I don't know how to reach. If you do know how to contact them would you be so kind as to tell them they will never be forgotten.

Re: What made Cradock great for us? (10-30-2008)  

If you want to read a paper packed full of insight about Cradock and its community, then here is your chance. The author’s in-depth perspective comes from an alumnus who lived in Cradock from 1941 thru 1961 and class of 57. The paper is not lengthy or brief, but falls somewhere in between. It is a delightful quick read and a guaranteed very worthwhile account our beloved Cradock and why some of us feel its greatness. Those who have taken Cradock for granted, like myself, will come away with a different perspective.

Thanks Bernie K. for sharing a paper that one can tell after reading  has a lot of your heart in, as well as a huge amount of your time invested. It is indeed an honor to have attended the same school that was blessed to have its halls traveled by you. 

I would love to read some more of your work.

 THE ANGEL WITHOUT WINGS

A humorous, warm and very heartfelt account of a Tennessee country boy's memory of meeting and life with his special angel from the class of 1969.

First of all the site looks great!  Thank you for all the hard work and effort.

I just wanted to express my sincere apologies to Kimberly Chatman for her bad experience at the reunion on the 18th.  Perhaps she does not realize that the pictures on the boards come from participants from the classes represented.  If she saw nothing for her Class that means no one from her Class was interested enough to participate.  Since she indicates that she does not want to be contacted and will not be attending any more of these functions unfortunately this message won't get to her but it seems that judged on her and her experiences the Class of 1990 has chosen not to participate and yeah "that's pretty partial".  They will miss great joy and friendship.  It's a little like voting…..if you don't participate…then don't complain about the outcome.  Perhaps Kimberly should think about contacting some of her classmates and attempt to get involved.  The Alumni Association would welcome any assistance they could receive.

On a positive note:  how nice of Clifford Mann to take time to write about Robert Worrell.  It was a lovely tribute and the main reason we started adding the obituaries to the names.  Those that have passed will not be forgotten!

Respectfully,

(10-1-2008)

Hello Again,

 I was very fortunate to have Dawn Windley, herself, contact  me.
 Unfortunately, she does not recall seeing any of my yearbooks after  her
 parents died.
 So, if anyone ever finds any Cradock yearbooks, '62,  '63, '64 and '65,
 with the name Linda Halpin on them, I'd be very grateful if you would contact
 me.
 There was also one in the group from Deep Creek, 1955.  Who knows, I guess
 it's possible that some thrift store or a collector may have  them.  To  me,
 they are definitely a collectible with many wonderful  memories enclosed.
 And, many thanks to Glenn for maintaining this wonderful  site.

For those who attended dances at the Light House in Portsmouth, the AB Club, Portsmouth Catholic, the Casino at Nags
Head, Battle of the Bands at the Dome which they won, Sloopy's on Canal Drive in Chesapeake VA you know what I mean.
They were by far the best band of their and our time. It gives me a great sense of pleasure to think
of all the times I have seen and heard them play. Please take a look and send Evan an email and let him know how much
you appreciate his effort to share the history of a group we all enjoyed. He will take you back in time and
brain tease you and may remind you that you were actually there.

The second website is where you can hear their record (2 songs) they recorded in 1967 and see a picture of the members
of the group. I hope this will all take you back and bring wonderful memories from our school days.

My name is Vanessa Townsend. I am an alumnus of Cradock. My husband, Allen Townsend, is too. I am trying to help
him get the word out to all of his customers. He worked for a business called Old Town Tire and Auto Center on the corner
of London Blvd and Effingham St.. About a week ago his uncle and owner of the business became ill and had to close its doors.
We are trying to let people know that he is now the Service Manager at John's Automotive,
at 4650 Portsmouth Blvd. in Portsmouth, 488-1964, starting this Monday April 28th. Thank you so much.  

Kirk Wood, Professor of History at Alabama State University, and a member of the Cradock High Class of '62, has published

check out the first of his series, "Volume One: James Madison, Not the Father of the Constitution", you can find it at http://www.univpress.com/Catalog/Flyer2.shtml?SKU=0761840117 (link not valid)

I went to Alf J Mapp 1965 thru 1968. I would have graduated at Cradock High if they had not started the busing that landed me
in Harry Hunt. It was horrible at Hunt. I dropped out and got married to the first guy that paid me the time of day.

Anyway, water over the bridge. I went to school with Belinda Hale, Renee Cherry, Judy Pate, Rose Bruce, Pamela Shumaker, Debbie and Peanut Shelburn. Mr. Harrison was my music teacher and Miss Mary Ann Jereme was my homeroom teacher and English teacher. Mrs. Early and Miss Atkins as well as Mr. Huneycutt were the physical education teachers at Mapp during this
 period of time. Mr. Mitchell was the math teacher with the roving eye and "TAB" AKA Mr. Bernard was my science teacher.
If you have any information on any of these above mentioned people, please email me at letsgotoboston@yahoo.com. Thanks
a million, Sandy Singleton

Hey all you Cradock folks....It's hard to think that 35 years have past. My name is Bill Grimsley, some would call me Big Bill
others would call me something else. I was in the class of 1973 and proud of it. During that year I was voted Most Friendliest
and was the DE president. I would like to say a Big Thanks to Brenda Darlene Anderson for allowing me to take part in the
Come Home To Cradock 2007, even though I was working with Sheriffs Department Motor Unit, I had a few moments to see some
dear friends, also she allowed me to take the top seat in the Christmas in Cradock, it was good to be back home.

I married my high school sweetheart, Robin Miller class of 1974, we have been together for 33 years, our daughter Kimberly is
an RN and works in the Portsmouth area, our son Nick works part time for the Carrie-B and full time for Columbia Gas Transmission.
We all now live in Portsmouth.

Robin and I own a scuba diving business in Suffolk and I have been diving/training with the Portsmouth Police and Suffolk Police
Dive team for years. I currently volunteer with the Portsmouth Sheriff Department and ride with the traffic/motor unit along with
other details.

It has been a thrill to visit the Cradock Web Sight and read e-mails from so many people I grew up with and on the same note,
sad to see the ones that have gone on before us. Cradock will always be a BIG part of my life and I will always be honored to
say I am a 1973 grad of this fine school.

Anyone wishing to contact me can do so by e-mail at biggbill98@aol.com.

After graduating from Cradock in 1965. I started in the Apprentice School at Norfolk Shipbuilding and Drydock.

In 1966 I met my wife at a church convention and later that year decided to move back to North Carolina. I moved to Charlotte,
NC in 1968 and started working for The City in October and got married in November. I lived in the Charlotte area for 35 years.
I retired from Mecklenburg County Engineering Department in February 2003. I had my own computer consulting business for
a year and a half and decided I wanted to do something different. In May 2005 I started working at Northeast Medical Center in
Concord, NC in the Emergency Room as a Patient Advocate.

Also, in 2006 my wife and I moved to Linwood, NC this is about 5 miles from where I was born so I guess you can say I have
come full circle.

My wife and I have two daughters and four grandchildren. My wife and I love to travel and have been on several cruises and taken
many trips across country. I love to write and am presently writing a historical fiction which I hope to publish one day. I also do
woodwork and make hot sauce and barbecue sauce which I sell under the name JEB's Sauce.

It does not seem so many years ago since I was enjoying my years at Cradock but time does move on.

To all my old classmates I send my greetings.

ATTENTION - CLASS OF 1957 ALUMNI!

Loretta Willis Marshall, CHS '57, and her husband Bill Marshall, Princess Anne High School, attended our 50th Reunion and
took many photographs of the scheduled events posted on their Picasa site. Loretta has done a great job of editing and cropping
and identifying folks from long ago and their spouses. Her cut lines are fun to read. Some of her videos are charming.

In addition, as a reunion project, the Class of '57 hired Cradock's own Tommy Odom, CHS '59, a principal in Hampton Roads
Video Production, to provide us with a DVD of our reunion activities. His work product included a nearly 2-hour retrospective look
at the Class of '57 from our school days beginning in the first grade in 1945 through graduation from high school. It has photos
from many class reunions through the years. Tommy did a masterful job of filming and producing our 1957 Class Memories DVD
and those who attended our reunion received a complimentary copy. To defray production costs and as a fund-raiser for future class projects, we are selling copies of the DVD for $40.00 each. To order one send an email to revelerbk@cox.net. It is the next best
thing to attending our class reunion, and for those who have lost their yearbooks it will be a treat.

Hello Admirals from the Class of 1977! This is Lex Pittman and I want to say hello to anyone who remembers me. I was hoping
to make the October 1977/2007 Reunion but ended up not being able to. I know it was a lot of fun because I emailed with Gary
Stokes after it was over and he said it was great. It was awesome that we had such a small graduating class because we all knew
each other, some of us since James Hurst Elementary School days. My Mom still lives behind the high school. Even though I haven’t really kept in touch with too many people from high school, at times I still think about all the fun we had. I am hoping all is well with
you. Send an email, I’d love to hear from you! Take good care. alexiapittman@aol.com

December 8, 2007

I am looking for Connie Clayton, or anyone who may have responded to her message some time ago when she was looking for me, Jenny Lassiter, Class of '83. The email address that Connie posted is no longer valid so I hope that she is still reading this message board. I am no longer in the Hampton Roads area. I live in Chesterfield County and I would love to hear from you! Please email me at Jennynva@verizon.net.

December 2, 2007

I would like to invite all Cradock Alumni to our "Christmas in Cradock" Event. We are working hard to pull it together in a big way
and hope it will be well attended. We are inviting organizations to participate and would love to have the Cradock Alumni and the
C.P.R. represented.
The event is on Dec. 1st, from five to eight p.m. So far, Santa will be arriving on the Fire Truck at SIX. We have a Bell Choir who
will be performing a Christmas program, also we have: a Christian band ensemble, many choirs for caroling, a table will be set up
to sign a banner for our military and our police and sheriffs dept., we are going to have a crafts area for children to make "gifts" for
their parents, (i.e., hand prints and Christmas cards) and lots of information tables will be set up to educate the community about the services offered and available both here in the Cradock area and in the city of Portsmouth.
The Boy Scouts will be selling chili and hot drinks while the Cradock Little League will be selling hot dogs, sausages, and cold drinks.
If you would like to set up a table, please let me know. If you have a different idea of how you would like to participate, just give me
a call! We are being flexible and everyone is welcome. Any ideas on what could be incorporated is also welcome. You could even
do a fund raiser if you would like.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon,

Hi:

I love the web site. It is fantastic! I am Sherry Wooten Byrd. I think I would have been in the Class of 66. I lived in Highland
Biltmore and attended grammar school in Cradock and Cradock High School in the 8th grade. I was a Junior Varsity Cheerleader.
I was selected as a cheerleader for another year and my parents moved us to Virginia Beach. I was devastated. I married Larry
Chinn. We later returned to the area when he coached and taught at Cradock High School. Larry and I moved to Morehead,
Kentucky while he attended Morehead State University. Our first child, Lisa, died. We had two other children, Kevin and Nichole.

Kevin was brain-damaged at age 3 and now functions as profoundly retarded. He lives at home with me. Larry and I were divorced
shortly afterwards.

I remarried and had 2 more daughters. I have 7 grandchildren. My second husband and I owned an electrical and plumbing
contracting business. I am a registered nurse. I have lived in Suffolk, VA for 20+ years. I am no longer married.

The best memories of my life were in Cradock. I ride through the area frequently and become so nostalgic. It was a great place
to live and love.

October 7, 2007 My name is Shelly Wilson or (Doolie lil sister) I'm from the best class of 1988..Shout out to Mrs. Butler formerly Ms. Jones
(Home economics). I would like to say hello to everyone that was honored to teach and/or attend CRADOCK even if only for a
semester. From 83-88 and to this day I am one of Cradock's biggest fans. I still talk trash to this day to my non Cradock friends
about the best PORTSMOUTH school and marching band under Mr. Thomas Hardy. Here's something to make all proud
ADMIRALS LOL. When I attend the Greyhound's home games and they sing the alma mater I sing CRADOCK'S alma mater
and when they shout ***the school that we love best*** I shout OUR UNCONQUERED CRADOCK HIGH :). I did see a few
emails from c/o 85 Dennis White and Craig Cook who both marched w/my brother Hermon Wilson (Doolie) and c/o 91-92
who should know my cousin c/o 91 homecoming QUEEN Tinishia Stephenson. I could go on and on about our great school,
I am interested in purchasing a Cradock T-shirt. Please any class mates or persons in charge of homecoming events that can
get me a T-shirt, I can be reached at imabrat301@hotmail.com.

Hello Class members of 1977, This is your Admiral Sonny Allen, I pray all of you are doing fine and are in good health, It has been a very long time, and I am looking foreword to the 30th reunion, if anyone of you are interested in contacting me please feel free to e-mail me at: sonny1on1@hotmail.com. Hope to hear from some of you all. Best wishes,
Sonny Allen

I would personally like to thank the Cradock High School Class of 1966 Reunion Committee for an outstanding job. The entertainment, food and atmosphere were wonderful. The “Remembrance Table” was so beautifully done and touched all. It was good to see everyone and to be able to reminisce about the good old days and to catchup on each others lives.
Thank you,
Vickie Helvey Thomason

Terry Wilburn,
Hi. I don't know if you remember me. I do remember you. I graduated in the Class of '74. Cheryl Jordan (back then it was Gustafson in my last year) now O'Connor. I live in Herndon, VA, a suburb of Washington, DC. It's close to Dulles Airport. I am coming down for the Come Home to Cradock Parade, October. 21. Would love to see you again. I am trying to get a few people to be there. I think I can get Sheree Beecher to be there as well. We had a kind of mini reunion in September. Kind of spur of the moment. It was me, Linda Ford, Nancy Faust, Donna Whitt, Bobby Garza, Rusty Tracey and Alben Sellers. We had a ball. We met at the Taphouse in Norfolk, close to Waterside. If you go on the Classmates.com website there is a photo album there with some pictures of us. We are trying to get a group together that night to talk about a reunion. So far, I have not gotten a whole lot of interest. Maybe you know some folks who would be interested. We could do a combined reunion for the Classes of '70 to '75. That would be cool. Hope all is well with you.
Take care, Cheryl Jordan // email me at fgcgpoco@aol.com.

Hi- My name is Dani Sue Jones Overton, and I would have graduated in 1974. In fact, I did order my announcements and senior pictures. I was very quiet and I doubt anyone would remember me. I was the quiet, small, long dark hair girl. Anyway, I almost graduated in 74, but left 3 months before I was. Now is that smart or what? -lol Did recieve my GED, went to work with insurance, and they sent me to training and school. I would love to connect with people back then. I live in Galveston TX, and have a wonderful husband. I am trying to find yearbooks from 71-74. Dani

My name is Ronald Bracy Class of 1966. I finally found the Cradock website and the date of the class reunion. I and some other seniors joined the Air Force while still in school. We all went to basic training 18 days after graduation. We drove the drill instructors nuts because most of us were on the track team at school.. I retired from the Air Force after 25 years, and now live in Durham NC. Looking forward to seeing my old friends at the reunion in October. A note to Richard Cessler, who joined the AF with me, My e-mail is rbracy1@msn.com drop me a line. Also, What ever happened to Rod Wade???

From Tommy Scott..Class of 1947
One of my grandchildren recently bought an old home in West Norfolk and found a trophy that was left behind. Here are some pictures of it.

The front of the baseball says "City Baseball Champions 1934 Cradock"

On the back it lists the players as follows :
Treakle - P I assume this was "Beef" Treakle
Wallace - P
Gartman - C
Roop - C
Lee - 1 B
M Dennis - 2 B
Barnette - 3 B Maybe this was "Hank" Barnette
Parker - SS I think this was "ACE" Parker ??
Mitchel - LF
Powell - CF "Pearle' Powell ??
Hewitt - RF
Savage - 1 B
Chapman - C
Askew - RF
If anyone can identify these guys it would be interesting. Also, I would be glad to find a place to display this trophy. It is 6 inches tall and the ball is an official ball.
My email address is dfishdaddy2@cox.net

My name is Doug Taylor, class of 66, and I would like to say upfront that I love the Cradock website and I would like to offer a "ton of thanks" to you and all who work so hard keeping the website going.
Hardly a day goes by that I do not have remembrances of the great times and wonderful people at CHS. I can honestly say the years at CHS are at the top of my list of good things that happen to me in my life. The best thing that ever happened to me was meeting my wife and friend of 36 years Aggie. Together we raised a family of two wonderful sons; Ryan our oldest (32) an Army Ranger for 15 years and Adam our youngest (30) who is an Electronic Engineer. In addition we also have two wonderful grand children Grayden and Noel.
I have worked in civil service for the past 28 years in various capacities with the last 19 years as an Equipment Specialist with the Navy/Marine Corps and the Air Force. These positions have afforded me many opportunities to visit and live in strange and different places. I have had extended visits to Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia, and I have lived in Hawaii and England. Currently I am assigned to Eglin AFB, Florida and live in Mary Esther, Florida which is on the gulf coast of the Florida panhandle near Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Aggie and I intend to retire in 2007 and relocate to a golf community south of Ocala, Florida called the Villages.
I would love to hear from any of my classmates or any Cradock Alumni.

Jane Cox writes: "Each time I happen to meet someone from Cradock from so many years ago (rarely happens), I get such a giddy and nostalgic feeling. It all seems so "Norman Rockwell-ish." I recall my wasted youth with such fond memories and gratitude because it was my personal path to enlightenment, fortitude, humor, and peace of mind. In middle age, I don't deal with demons from the past... I just enjoy some really good laughs!

So much fun reading the emails from classmates of CHS....I graduated with the Class of 1970....what a great school. Wonderful memories...Friday night football games...against Wilson or Deep Creek...oh, if we could have only beaten Wilson in 1970...we all prayed so hard!! :-) Still go through my annuals every now and then, and lots of great memories come back. I still keep in touch with Cynthia Ruiz and Pam Wiseman, but after moving to Northern Virginia, it seems I have no time for anything. Would still like to keep up with old friends, like Shelia Widener, Perry Allison, Dreama Tilley, Glenda Ervin....you just wonder how your old school friends, that you swore you would not forget, are doing. I can be reached at tommybeacham@yahoo.com. I did return for my twentieth class reunion, and it was amazing how much fun it was! 35 years since graduation...boy oh boy...time does fly by. :-) Tom Beacham '70

Hello my name is Dennis White and some of you may not remember me. I graduated from Cradock High School with the class of 1985. I played trombone in the Cradock Marching Band under the direction of Mr. William "Bill" Gibson and Mr. Thomas O.Hardy. I held the position as drummajor under the direction of Mr. Larry Lemasters. Mr. "Photo" Bailey was the assistant principal during that time. I was a Law Enforcement Officer for the City Of Portsmouth, Virginia for (17) years. I'm currently based out of the Detroit Field Office as a Federal Agent for the United States Government. After the events of September 11, 2001, I felt the need to assist my country with fighting the war on terror from the front lines. I'm currently married and blessed with seven wonderful children. My years at Cradock were great years. I made so many friends there and a few of them still keep in touch. I often think about those who stated "Dennis isn't going to amount to anything". English teacher Mrs. Vivian Brown from the Cavalier Manor section of Portsmouth, Virginia told me not to be discouraged because I wasn't an (A B) student. She stated the following to me when I was in the 11th grade (#1. Look at where you are, #2. Look at how you got here, #3. Look at where you wanna be, #4. Work your #%! off to get there and to be successful). I would like to thank Mr. Bailey, Mr William Gibson, Mr. Thomas O. Hardy, Mrs. Joyce Wiggins, Coach Darnell Johnson, Mrs Betty Ann Wright and Mrs. Vivian Brown for pushing me to the limit. I wish all Cradock gradutes "God speed".

Greetings,
I would have graduated from Cradock High in 1991, but my parents bought a home in Chesapeake. I've been living in Atlanta for the past 7 years and I married a wonderful guy in May of this year.
The last time I went home, I drove by the old high school and realized the concession stand was still on the football field, along with a few bleachers.
I have a lot of wonderful memories of my time at CHS. Memories I will cherish for the rest of my life.
Thank you Cradock High!
Erica Lemons (formerly Erica Mingo)

Saw Terry Wilburn's email and I think a 30-yr reunion is a must!! Since we were friends with so many from the classes of '74 and '73, I think we should invite them as well. I live in Portland, OR, but promise to journey to the reunion if you plan it!!

Hi!
My name is Debra Tidmore. In looking up and trying to catch up with old friends, I also have a friend who needs to be listed with the fallen of the Class of '71.
Alice DeArmond
She and I were neighbors here out in Oklahoma in the late '70's but she moved back to VA. I called and we kept caught up on the latest with each other but after she moved back to Va she married, lost him, married, moved to Indiana, lost him, and she died in Sept. 2001.
Alice's health went bad, she got pneumonia, went into the hospital, put into a nursing home, got well from that but after that, refused to eat, died Sept. 2001 before my latest letter reached her. I talked to her "Step-Grandson" and he told me of the latest that Sept.
I will always miss the Class of '71's tall, red-haired girl, Alice DeArmond.
Please list her with our precious fallen Cradock Alumni.
Sincerely,
Debra Tidmore, debtidmore@sbcglobal.net, Class of '71
