Dick Hatch '58

I received an email from Larry Beddes '58:

I have some sad news to convey to you. Dick has been diagnosed with acute leukemia and it is terminal. I was told recently by Harvey Young the Dr. informed Dick he would have days and/or weeks/months to live. Dick's daughter lives close by and has been very involved with helping Dick in recent months/years. Harvey and I spoke last night and Dick told him recently that he is content and at ease with the current situation.

Dick doesn't have e mail but his other contact information is:

Dick Hatch
247 E Idaho Springs Drive
Pueblo, CO 81007

Phone: 719/647-9035

Dick passed away last evening at 6:30 with his daughter Nic and Hospice at his bedside.

Our Reunion Committee Plans

I had a call today from one of our committee members on their plans for August 9 and 10, 2014.  Nothing, at this time, is set in stone, but they are well on their way planning the Event.  Saturday:  They will decorate at Oscar's Dreamland from 8 a.m.-10 a.m.  At 10  a.m. we can join them with possibly hay rides, games, etc.  Mixer at 5 p.m., Dinner at 7, and Music at 8.  All is casual attire for both days.  Sunday: 10 a.m. for Coffee and doughnuts, then Generic Bingo with us each bringing 4 generic wrapped fun prizes.  They are thinking about a Football Game, selling small footballs, for players to toss through a bulls eye.  Also, Horseshoes.  Afternoon is potluck.  I suggested they ask our classmates who have 50's cars to parade down Main Street and be parked in a special spot.  Oscar's Dreamland is in a town setting with a Church, Library, General Store, etc.  You can view their website @ http://www.oscarspark.com/Oscars_Park/Oscars_Dreamland.html
