I have taken over as the webmaster of the CFHS web-sites that Jerry
Mooers has been doing for the past several years. Jerry let it be known that
he was retiring from doing the web-site and was looking for someone to take the site over, and I decided to volunteer.
I have never done the type of web-site program that the CFHS web-site Jerry did so I have
made up two complete different websites of my own that is listed at the top of the page. The website Jerry did will still
be online but will not get updates. I am only keeping it so I won't lose things that I don't want to lose. You will still
see many pages that Jerry has done as I will link to them until I figure out a better way to do them. There is nothing wrong
with the website Jerry did it is just a case that he could make it work and I cannot and since I have two other programs I
can work I will do them.
I am glad that I had the opportunity to grow up in Cedar Falls, and found myself
periodically checking out the web-site, mostly the 1954 and 1955 years, to see old friends. I have many fond memories as I had/have several friends that went to CFHS. I see many of my friends have passed on like Bruce
Billings, Junior Larson, Gordon Cranston and Dale Sharon to mention a few, and I feel fortunate to have known
them.
I hope that people from CFHS who want to put things on the web-site will not hesitate to contact
me. I will be glad to work with people that want to improve their class web-site between 1950 and 1959. I am sure
their will be many things that I will have to learn to be able to work the CFHS web-site so if a problem comes up please be
patient and keep the faith.
I now live in Florida in the winter and Massachusetts in the summer. I can be reached by E-mail,
listed below. If you have anything to send I will give you the mailing address that I can be reached at.
Thank you Jerry Mooers for letting me take over the web-site, you have done a great job and I will
make an all out effort to do the same.
I give my best wishes to all that went to CFHS in the 50's.
The next three pictures below are of me in case some of you have forgotten me. Believe me I have not
forgotten any of my classmates at CFHS and to this day I am convinced they were/are the best.
The picture above is one of three pictures I have of my CFHS days. I'm in the
front row 1st person on the right when you look at the picture. There is another one of these pictures that makes up the complete
class of 1954 these pictures were in the 1951 yearbook.
The above photo was when I started the 9th grade. I started the season on varsity at 95 pounds but
it didn't last long as I was a
passenger riding with my Father in his pick up truck and he came upon a bunch of ICE and ended up rolling the truck
about three times. I was alive but my body did not function very well for about six months. I did not end up finishing the
wrestling season and was replaced by Gordon Cranston. This picture did not make the yearbook. The three people behind me were
my favorite wrestlers, and people I looked up to: Duane Thomas, Don Hartley, and Jim Boysen.
I just received the above picture from a member of the class of 1951. This one
brought a lot of memories as I was a freshman and this was at initiation at Washington Park. I am the middle boy
wearing knee length trousers. I believe I am shining Jean Wilkersons shoes which I was very willing and happy to do.
I mentioned that I use two other type of programs and here is a link to several of my web-sites
that I have done :
Here is a link to the Cedar Falls High School web-site that I can work very good so for the time
being I will first put everything on this web-site. This will be the most up todate web-site until I master the old web-site
which I don't think will be very long.
When I took over the cfhs web-site from Jerry Mooers I also kept the domain with it which is : ( cfhs-alumni.org
). I also purchased a domain for the Tripod website in case I need it and it is ( cfhs-alumni.com
), and I also purchased a domain for my Angelfire program in case I need it and it is ( cfhs-alumni.net ). I
may use them all and may not but they were available so I bought them.
Here is some sites with the domains ( .org ), ( .net ), and ( .com )
I have sent e-mails out to several class members listed as a member with an
e-mail address and several came back because the e-mail address did not exist or was incorrect. I will be glad to update your
e-mail address for you.
