Happy 70th Mr. "Johnny P." Johnson


In the school year 1959-1960 we encountered an extraordinary teacher that set us each on a course, a journey, that we probably least understood or foresaw. For some of us, me included, it was the class best remembered, the defining moment of such malleable minds. To look at us then...... One could but wonder the promise.....


We dedicate this site to an extraordinary teacher.


We also want to forever and fondly remember two friends, Linda and Larry, who have gone on before us.

We recently gathered to celebrate Mr. Johnson's 70th birthday. It seemed a surprise to him. Ten of us were there in body and many others in spirit. Some travelled "around the corner", others many miles; and for a Sunday evening, in the mid of winter, the camaderie and he are still the bond.

What has happened to us? How have we done?

For as much as we remember him, he remembers us, "We Few, we precious few"....
