Welcome, Class of 1957
June 25 and 26, 1982
   Our 1982 reunion was held just a few weeks (June) after the disasterous, deadly F-4 tornado that hit Marion at 3:15pm on May 29, 1982 and cleaned out a 100-300 foot path clear through town from West to East. While we celebrated at the Holiday Inn, many in Marion did not have a home. Ten (10) people died and over 200 were injured as a result of the storm. The damage was in the 10's of millions of dollars. We had much to be thankful for that year.
