Sally Strong Saculla (HHS 59) has lost her husband, Frank Saculla (HHS 57.) I'm sure that everyone remembers Frank, and those of us who were at the recent 58 reunion were lucky to see him again shortly before this obviously unexpected tragic event. This is the obituary that appears on-line today: Frank C. Saculla, age 66, of Griffith, IN passed away Thursday, November 11, 2004. Born in Chicago Heights, IL, the son of the late Charles and Elizabeth Saculla, he is survived by his wife of 42 years, Sally; daughters: Beth (Michael) Wimmer, Amy, and Jennifer Saculla; sons: Scott and Charles Saculla; granddaughters Emily and Megan Wimmer; sisters: Frances (Wally) Demith and Julia (Ted) Walsh; brothers Marino (diane) Saculla; and numerous nephews, nieces, and friends. Preceded in dearh by his granddaughter, Alyssa Wimmer. Memorial Service will be held Monday, November 15, 2004 at 11:00 a.m. at the Westminster Presbyterian Church, 8955 Columbia Avenue, Munster, IN, with the Re3verand Richard Rogers officiating. Visitation will be Sunday from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m. at the Burns-Kish Funeral Home, 8415 Calumet Avenue, Munster, IN. Frank was a graudate of Hammond High School, class of 1957, Purdue University, class of 1965, and received a Masters degree at Indiana University. Member of Hammond Sports Hall of Fame, Purdue Alumni Association, and Izaak Walton League. Former director of the Parks and Recreation Department for the city of Hammond, retired from Scott Lad Foods, he was currently employed at Purdue University Calumet Fitness Center. He served with the U.S. Army in the Far East. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions to the family to establish a scholarship in Frank's memory would be appreciated. Sally's address is in the address list on this website.

I had Ann Noldin ask if any one else had been tatooed with their blood types (Kay & I have NEVER found anyone from other areas who have this feature!)! Perhaps other classes of HHS during the 50's had this done too? We are very satisfied with our being "Eighters from Decatur, county seat of Wise (of course it's in Texas!)" because we now consider ourselves Texans (we got here as fast as we could!)!

I have been in Anderson, Indiana for the past 35 years. After reading, on this great web site, about what some of you have achieved, I'm a little embarrassed to report on my activities for the past 45 years. Graduated from I.U. in 1963 and Butler in 1965. Taught school for a few years while my husband was in law school. Retired in 1969 to become a mom. Now I play a little golf and a lot of bridge. Because there are no duplicate games in Anderson, I spend a lot of time on I-69 going to Indianapolis for bridge. For many years, I played in tournaments all over the country, but we are currently building a new home in Noblesville, Indiana (crazy, at this age)so that is my current obsession. I will probably miss the reunion, as we hope to be in the midst of moving in early October, but I would love to hear from anyone who has the time.

I am amased at the number of HHS classmates that I lived near in the Bay Area but didn't know were here in the San Francisco area. Now that I've moved to Oakhurst, I've learned of several through your website and others. Thanks for the effort you put into this website and I hope someone will organize a multi year class reunion as suggested in one of the postings. Take care and keep up the good work.

Don't get back to Hammond much anymore as all my family are either gone or here in VA. But I loved reading the thread about Maid Rite on Classmates. My first recollection was when I was about 5 years old--we lived at 840 Drackert St. and it was all my Dad could afford when we ate out. Thanks for a great website and a little taste of "home"

As best I know, the last reunion was the 25th. It is fun to see who has registered with Classmates.com. I sell for IBM in the San Francisco area, and we live in the South Bay in Los Gatos, CA. I suspect that there aren't too many HHS grads around here. HHS seems far away, although I was able to see a bit of Hammond in May 2002 when we were back in Indiana for my nephew's wedding. A suggestion for Rich Barnes -- why not have a multi-year reunion covering '57-'60? Hammond, maybe the Civic Center, would have to be the site so that those of us who no longer have ties there can visit old haunts.

Really brings back many memories. Still working at Ispat Inland (formerly known as Inland Steel) with plans to retire in about five years. Widowed after 36 great years marriage, with three children, and four grandchildren. My web site has not been updated for a long, long time, but I am going to attack that chore with "Great Vigor" one of these days. Looking forward to the 2004 class reunion Terry Lovell has been describing. Really enjoyed hearing from him and all the active work he has done keeping track of so many of us. Hope many can make it back to "Da Region" for the event. Much success to your new web site. Thanks again for your stellular efforts. Will be checking back frequently to see who has "been found."

At 50,(I think) he could still swim me into the wall. That shot of Indland Steel also brought back stuff.

We are meeting tomorrow night (3-7-02) and I will mention your website. Wow! how did you get so far from Hammond? Do you still have family there? Everything has changed so much it is hard to recognize. Someone mentioned at the reunion there was talk about tearing down the old building and building a new one back where the football field is.
