Michael: So sorry for your loss. Many years have gone by and your classmates have often wondered where you are living. The last address was Montana.
Our 65th reunion is coming up this year. We have lost 35 classmates out of 79.
Sure would like for you to keep in contact with you. Best wishes.

I met Mrs. Riley in the fall of 1966 when my husband was a student at what became CTC. We had moved to Springfield to reduce his commute between home, school and job. [Classes were at North HS when he enrolled at the Springfield-Clark County Technical Education Program in the late summer of 1966.]
Mrs. Riley provided emotional support to both of us a number of times during the years (four years & two additional children) he was a student with a family and full-time job. He persisted and graduated with his Associate Degree! She was an amazing woman and I remember her fondly!

I am so sorry to hear of Margaret's passing. Back in 72-74 she appointed me to the first student veterans counselor as I was a student. May she rest in peace and my condolences to her family. She was a highly intelligent and sweet lady/
