Paschal's 125th Anniversary

A huge thank you to Cockrell Printing for furnishing us with an electronic copy of the program from the 125th Anniversary Celebration. Included are pictures of the old Fort Worth High School, Central High School, and the McLean Junior High campus that became the current site of Paschal. Enjoy! (Note the special thank you to the Class of 1960 on page 11.)

The Class of 1960 was responsible for four tables where donations were accepted for the Alumni Association's general fund. The steering committee for our class's involvement included Carrol Payne Nokes, Billie Roberts Dorris, Jane Wiggin York, Judy Kaye Lamberson Neely, Carol Reid Permann, and Janis Meyerson. Special thanks to Billie for designing the collection boxes and envelopes with her inimitable panther drawings!

DO YOU KNOW ROSALIE MITCHELL??? Rosalie Mitchell is on our missing classmates list. Interestingly, the photographer at the 125th anniversary celebration found her, although we couldn't! Please watch the video and if you can help us locate her, your class would be most grateful! Contact Carrol or Sharon.

THANK YOU NOTES FROM THE EVENT ORGANIZERS

Carrol - Well the class of ’60 not only made their presence known, they put the Alumni Association forever in their debt. With detailed planning and execution, it all ran like the well oiled machine it is. And I also appreciate that you made it possible for me to meet so many staunch PHS supporters. They were a blessing during the celebration. You have a great team.

I hope the shoulder surgery recuperation goes well for you. I thought of you everytime I saw another detail you had thought of that made our day easier.

Thank you so much!

Dear Class of 1960,

The 125th Celebration of Paschal High School was a proud tribute to our great Alma Mater, but also to the fine group of Panther Alumni who represent our school.

Please know your very special Class of 1960 is one of the reasons the pride continues.

Each of you were a big part in making the 125th Anniversary a memorable and fun afternoon.

The Paschal Alumni Association sends a sincere thank you to all your volunteers. and will forever be grateful for your loyalty to PHS.

Memories Ever,
