Ralna's Lubbock Friends & Family
 |
My sister Sharon and brother-in-law, Carl, came in from Dallas for
the performance. Any time spent with them is always treasured by me. |
Here I am with my precious niece, Michelle, who like Julie, is a teacher. Can you tell I adore her?! |  |
 |
Michelle
had three children...in this order: Shea, Taylor and Clay. Taylor is in
school in Dallas and could not make it. Here I am with Texas Tech
student Shea, and eighth-grader, Clay. |
 | Shea
is working her way through school at an 'upscale boutique' near the
campus. Here she is giving her Great-Aunt Ralna a new look. |
| I
was so touched that good friends, Burns and Ginalu, opened their beautiful home
to many of my old school chums with a lovely party. |  |
 |
Burns is a true artist. This is his creation carved by his own two hands. |
Aren't my high school friends beautiful?! (l. to r.): Here I am with Kay and Marilyn Monroe look-alike, Donna. |  |
 |
Donna's husband, Jerry, was the piano player for the Ad Libs. |
 | (l.
to r.): Ann, Kenneth, Kilmer. Ann and Kenneth graciously opened their
home to me while I was in Lubbock. Here they are at the party with
Kilmer, the saxophonist for the Ad Libs. |
| Jerry and wife, Patty. As many of my Lubbock friends, I have known Jerry since grade school. |
 |
 |
Early the next morning, I went to the mall and got my ears pierced for the second time. It was scary the second time too!
|
| Then
my Lubbock High friends and I went to lunch and everyone had a great
time. I truly love these longtime friends. (l. to r. top row): Jan, Donna,
Karen, Nicky, and Pat. (l. to r. bottom row): Ralna and Ann. |

 | Here's Nicky...you couldn't see her in the last picture. She bought my lunch that day...thanks Nicky! |
