Garland High School Alumni

Here is an interesting story that was sent to us from friend Jackie recently.
Dear Tony and Elaine,
Do you remember Adella?  She was a neighbor of the Armstrongs when she was growing up.  She attended most of the Garland reunions.  She also worked for Frontier when Don did.  Anyway, she just had a book published about her Grandfather called "Undocumented" about him making it to this country from Bohemia.  I just ordered it from Amazon.  It is doing very well.  She has been writing for some time.  She has sent me several short stories that were published in magazines.  She used to work for Lida when she was in High School.   She wrote a story about Lida, too.  I just ordered her book and am anxious to read it.
Love, Jackie
Adella Graduated from GHS with the Class of '54, married Robert Schulz(GHS Class of '51) and moved to Colorado in '57. He worked in construction and started his own company in 1970. They raised a family of 4 boys. 
    Some of this information came from a Garland High School, Alumni Directory 1923-1969 published in 1990. The picture came from a book of all the Graduation pictures that I scanned some years ago when Elaine and I refurbished all the pictures in a new book. The total number of GHS graduates during its 46 years of existence is relatively small and yet the group continues to maintain an annual reunion with formally elected Officers, Agenda, and Minutes. Adella is just another one of the many of us who have done very well with their early education.
