A moment of silence was held for the nine deceased members of the class. A short class meeting was held in which a message from William “Billy” Ouellette, who lives in California, was read by the chairman.

The door prize, a hand-painted pitcher filled with seasonal flowers, was won by Laurette Poulin. Another prize, a lined basket filled with home-made jelly and ham, was won by Bertha Pomerleau.
