Hi. I did not grow up in Leominster, I grew up in Auburn, MA.  My father was raised in Leominster, his name is Bradford
Wass and he is turning 60 on May 10th. I would really like to do something special for him and I know he has tried to
get a Wass milk bottle from the farm he grew up on.  He has not been successful yet, but if anyone could help me or know
someone who could help it would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

Just browsing and found this site. What fun. I married Jerry Richard, also of the class of '53. He passed away quite suddenly this
year. Miss him terribly. Wonderful memories of the class of '53. Hope to hear from some of you. I live outside of Atlanta now.
Would love to see Leominster again. Keep up the good work.

Just wanted to say that this is a great site.  Browsing through the site brought back so many memories. If anyone
who graduated in '97 sees this, email me. I'd love to revisit those days. Go Pats, Sox, and Celtics.

I am searching for a friend of many years ago whom I presume attended LHS. Catherine who's last name I think was David or
possibly Young. She lived at 21 Franklin St. I last visited in 55 or 56.  I think Catherine would have graduated in one of those years.
If anyone would have any information that might lead me to reuniting with Catherine I would be very thankful.  Dave Davis,  4790

you for posting my request.

Your pic of the rollercoaster at Whalom reminded me of a burger joint that was behind the park. It was called Furies and had the 
best burgers we could find. This site is great, thanks,

Hi Gang, I'm just looking for further info on the passing of my friend Peter Leon who died 6 years ago.  I was just curious where
and when he went to school, etc. I also miss my friends Dickie Boyd, Dennis Caro et al and all the pretty girls from the Class of '66.
Best wishes to any who read this.

Still looking for 1968 classmates Kevin Donegan (believed to be living in Maine?) and Mike Lastella (believed to be in Mass and retired from Mass Electric.) Guys, we need a reunion, as awkward as it might be.  I saw Mike at the 20th reunion, but Kevin wasn't there.  I heard from David Mathews at Christmas, 2004, nothing since.

Great website! I am a 2001 graduate, currently a Suffolk Law class of '08. Leominster and LHS were so great to me that I can't help moving back after I graduate to work / live.

Greetings -Although I never had the privilege to attend Leominster HS, I did grow up in Leominster and hold many fond memories of it. I lived on Eva Drive, in a red cape cod style house. My best friend at the time was Todd Davis, he lived over on Pleasant St. We had a blast when we were kids, riding mini bikes thru Wass farm, bottle hunting, swimming in Barrett Pond, and the State Forest. I was back in MA. in the mid 90's doing a little reminiscing and tried to locate him with no luck. Another buddy of mine who lived in the area said that Todd had passed away, but gave no further information about it. I've been surfing the web lately, looking for more of what's happening in Leominster, and I found your site with a picture of Todd as part of the LHS football team of 1980. That's the most information I ever had. I had left Leominster back the early 70's. Todd went with me to the airport, we flew from Leominster to Logan in a private plane my Dad had arranged, Ft. Devens days. That was Todd's first flight I remember, and we lost contact after that. Just trying to garner a little bit of my past, I guess I'm getting homesick, or just cherish the good ole days. Any insight would be most appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hi!  I graduated from LHS in 1948.  I was born in Leominster and my roots there can be traced back to 1769.  I was employed by DeLisle's for 19 years and managed Allen's Department Store for eight years.   I left in 1972 and moved to Texas but still get homesick at times.  This is a great site.  I spent a lot of time exploring it and got nostalgic at times as I read familiar names, especially from the 1951 and 1952 graduation programs.  I will check back often to see what has been added.

Thanks to whoever put the site together. Always have loved Leominster. Graduated in 1956. Always glad to hear from anyone who graduated then. Got married in the First Baptist Church there in Dec. of 1958.

Hi! I am trying to locate any relatives/friends who may know relatives of my biological father James Bourque.  He died when I was 3 years old, and unfortunately I have had no contact with his family, but would love to know them!  If you have any information I would really appreciate it. He married Sharon Bailey and I have two sisters who would also like to know more about our father's family. Peace

Happy to see that there is a web site for Leominster High School grads! My name: Lorraine (Taylor) Girouard.  I graduated from LHS in 1956 (married the same year, so celebrating 49 years, on both counts).  It's very unlikely that I'll be able to attend the 50th Class Reunion...because we live in British Columbia, Canada and that's quite a distance to travel. We love it, here on the West Coast: we are 20 minutes from the Pacific Ocean and 20 minutes from the USA border.  The weather is very pleasant: long summers and very short winters (many years, we get no snow at all). British Columbia is a rainforest - that is why we get so much rain: it does make everything green, though.  And, in the summer, we don't *tan*....we ~rust~! We had 9 children...then, 9 grandchildren; and currently, we have 4 great, grandchildren. My husband, Joseph, retired in the year 2000. Being a 'housewife'...I shall never retire!I hope that all my classmates have had long, happy lives...and that most of them are enjoying their retirement years!

Hi! Trying to locate anyone who may have known Sharon Bailey or Jimmy Bourque - class of 61 or 62? I'm their daughter - trying to find avenues to locate my dad's family. Any information, or memories of my dad (he passed in 65 or 66), would be greatly appreciated!

I think whoever put this site together should be recognized for all the great articles and information in it. I especially loved the article about Doyle field since my house was on Grand St. and all of my many siblings used Doyle Field as a very large backyard. If you're interested in doing another article on a distinguished allumni you might consider James Natchwey. I belive he was in the class of 1966. He is an internationally reknown New York Times photo journalist and was recently in the news because he was blown up in Iraq with another journalist. He is recovering. Maybe there's somone who would want to write about him. Thanks for the stroll down memory lane!

Was looking for a old classmate by the name of Joan Peters, aka, Joan Fallon. Was a good friend of mine. She was in the class of "57", I was in the class of "55". This is really a great website and amazingly deserves a lot more responses. Please keep up the good work, the old alumni appreciate it. It's just a great venue for old L.H.S. grads to continue to communicate. Hope to hear from you all.

Brownsville Station sang it best with SMOKING IN THE BOYS ROOM. Then LHS switched it to the smoking area. To many memories not enough space to type it all. The Thanksgiving games rally, seniors day, two period in the last year of school, study hall almost all day long, skipping out to have lunch at McDonalds and the list can go on and on and on. If I had to do it all over again knowing what I know now, I would have no problem going back. The care free days, what a time. Blue Devils will always live in my heart.

As a B-Ball player (1976), I was addicted to the Bennett School as a kid. "T" Miller, like Leins Market was always there. On my annual pilgrimmage back to the homestead I often pass the school, and envision the pick-up games and summer league hoops that were so much a part of my coming of age. We'll miss you "T".

What a great site to finish and read the dedication to "T". "T" was one of the most special people in my life. We shared so many good memories from Junior High to H.S. No matter how much time went by if I saw him, he would be so happy to see me. What a warm loving person, I will never forget!

The site is looking good!! Sure makes you want to go back in time when we didn't have a care in the world. Well, except maybe hoping somebody would call and ask you to T.A.G. for that weekend. People think I'm crazy when I say I'd go back to high school in a snap as long as it was 1964 again. Guess they should have lived in Leominster and gone to high school with us!! Good job, Moose!
