Does anyone know how I can get an annual for the year of 1960. Yes I said 1960. I don't know what happened to all my annuals after my grandfather died. All of his kids sorta got rid of all the items without telling or asking anyone (such as myself). Since I was offsite during this time I lost out on everything. Anyway, if anyone can help I would really appreciate it. If possible, can anyone scan some picture from the year 1959 and 1960 to robytexas.com. Thanks

Hey class of 1960!!! Let's help Nelda out and make this a good reunion! We can't go back in time but we can sure talk about it. I go to Roby about once every month just to enjoy myself. Trying to purchase those benches we used to sit at when it used to be "Noles Drug Story". Hope someone replies. Like I said, let's help Nelda make it happen!!!!

Just thought I would let everyone know that after several years, I am renouncing the rite of bachelorhood as of tonight. If anyone is in the vicinity of Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano around 7:00 PM tonight, they are more than welcome to attend. If not, you may meet the new Mrs. Brown at homecoming. Fenton

POSTED FOR MIKE & JOANN TERRY (content of an email) Thank you God for blessing Jason, Wendy,their new baby boy and our family. We are very happy to announce the arrival of Cooper Whitt Terry, 6lbs. 10ozs., 20 1/4 ins. long, born at 7:22pm June 21,2001. He is perfect in every way and just as beautiful. Mother and baby doing fine and so is Dad. Cooper had 22 waiting room guest eagerly awaiting his arrival and 6 of those guest, who were cousins (ages 1-6),,just couldn't figure out why it took all day long to get "baby Jason". Of course at that time we didn't know his name. But they hung in there and thought it was well worth it , and of course you know what happened next , they all wanted to hold Cooper! It's been a great day and may God bless this little bundle the rest of his life.Love Always and Forever, Jo-Jo

Class of '59-'60 That is hard to do -- be a part of two classes but I managed. Live on a mountain top now, and I still yearn for flat spaces.

Yogi--Great idea. Roby is too important not to have it's own website. Since Annyce passed away, I haven't had many chances to get to Roby, but I will be down homecoming.

Hello Yogi. Appreciate the effort. Great job & yes I will clutter with photos. Would like to see some current pictures of some of you other guys, since it seems impossible to get together, ie New Orleans, State Fair, etc. Obviously the class of '64 was the greatest, right!

Hi Yogi. My sister sent me the link to your web site. This is great! I can't believe its already been approximately 23 years since I last saw you. I think Carolyn told you about our Dad passing away last December 1st, 2000. One of my little brothers, Mark, is doing some business with Brit (sp?) Stuart in Roby at the bank. Anyway I'll check you later. Lee Wood

This is great!! Glad someone finally thought of this! Let me hear from someone else from the class of 1970! I teach business at Hamlin High School and helped do a historical PowerPoint presentation for Hamlin's Homecoming. It was so neat, we brought in pictures from Hamlin's beginning, original settlers, through the old schools, pictures of downtown, old churches, etc. We also had narration to go with each picture, and music in the background. I would love for Roby to have something like that. I would be glad to help with the presentation, but the main thing is to get old photos, and memoirs from some of the people and start building a story to make a presentation for Roby's homecoming. How does that sound?
