Welcome to the St. John's Class of '76 Page!

This is where we'll post info we think you'll want to know and refer to regarding future get-togethers. 

(And one note - it's probably easiest to refer to the women by their maiden names, so we all know who we're talking about.) 


NEWS: 7/23/26 - Anthony Potesta died last weekend of a heart attack. Arrangements at this time are unknown. If you become aware of any, please let dianesheibley@gmail.com know. 


Hello Classmates!

 

You are cordially invited to the 50th Reunion of the St. John the Baptist School Class of 1976! See the enclosed flyer for details. We truly hope you can join us.

 

You can RSVP by clicking the link below, or by mail. The deadline to respond is SEPTEMBER 15, but we hope you will do it sooner. It will help in our planning. You'll also avoid getting reminders to do so from us.

 

Pictures! You are invited to send a picture or two from “back in the day”, that we can display for all to see at the event. Send in .jpg or .png format to JCusumano13 @ gmail.com, and Joanne will create a nice display. We already have the 8th grade class picture, as well as a few others, but your pictures would be a great addition. Please send them by August 31.

 

The cost is $30 per person, and you are welcome to bring a “plus one” if you care to. (If cost is an issue, get in touch with one of us privately – we have options! We’d hate for anyone who wants to come to have to skip it due to cost.)

 

Get in touch if you have any questions. See you in October!

 

Your reunion committee,

Diane (Wershing) Sheibley, dianesheibley @ gmail.com

Joanne Cusumano, JCusumano13 @ gmail.com

Mike Peters, mfpeters05 @ gmail.com

Reach out to her or me if you need help getting up and running on it. Then drop us a "hi"!
