Never in Another Class...
Never in another class will you find so many siblings to graduate the same year...
This is what make the CSHS 1974 Class so S-P-E-C-I-A-L!!!
Did you know, after congregating at the 35th Class Reunion, we found that there are many siblings in the this class that are NOT twins (only two sets of siblings were actual twins)?
If you know of others (and how this came about), please submit to Audrey Merriweather-Hurst or James DeBouse, so that we may update our website.
Check out the list below:
Truly Twins:
Donald & Ronald Hodge (Who's the oldest?)
Derry Lynn & Sherry Lynn Walpool
Other Siblings:
Bernard & Oliver Bell
Betty & Diane Green (per the yearbook)
Wilbert & Linda Harris
Wilbert and I were born in the same year, 1956, Wilbert, Jan. 3rd, and myself, Dec. 26. The school allowed me to start early at mama's request, so that we could go together. Like Audrey, I was the one who did the homework, listened in class and of course, brought home the books.
Wilbert just showed up and made sure that no boy ever talked to me... Ever, never, especially his friends. You do know when he began to drive, he would take me, only if I would lie down in the back seat (so that no one would see me with him). He was so cool.
Delores & Doris Howard
Larry & Tommie Love
George & Audrey Merriweather
All this time you've wondered, but was afraid to ask. Well, here's how the fight got started...
(When we moved to LA from MO, Audrey was in 1st grade and George in 2nd. She started crying to be in class with him, so their mother asked Ms Katie Boone to let George sit in class with Audrey for a couple of weeks. After they tried to move him back to his original class, the crying started up again. Mom said, "Just leave them together.")
Believe me, Audrey has paid for this time & time again. She learned how to fold The Shreveport Times (for his paper route & even for his best friend, too), do double the homework, get George his first girlfriend-Deborah Gafford ("No, it wasn't Irene"), and the list goes on...
