Join Your Classmates and Friends

HAFNERS — A Moline institution where the food is excellent and the fellowship even better--especially at lunchtime when members of the MHS class of '65 gather. Come say hello to your classmates as you share memories as well as news, tips, a joke or two, and talk about baseball and local sports today. 

All are welcome--join in on Wednesday, June 1, at 11:30ish and every first Wednesday of the month in the future. Mark your calendar today and ask Alexa or Siri to remind you, too.

On May 7th, 2025, these classmates lunched and visited: Barry Curtis, Sharon Shaffer, Mitch Strach, Joyce McMinn Strach, John Katherman, Christine DeCastecker, Sally Robbins Weckel, Ron VanDaele, Jerry Miller, and Bob Groene.

Meanwhile some other classmates sought warmer weather in both the southwest and southeast.

In April 2025, Jeff Johnson found Perry Hansen nearby Jeff's daughter's home in Phoenix, Arizona  

In Naples on April 7th, two friends from the class of 66 joined us at the Naples Village Pub; seen here are Claudia Cunningham Greenleaf (66), Linda Swanson Nygaard, Val Miller (66), Dee Karstens and Cheryl Anderson Lehew.

On March 19th, 2025, several classmates who met in  Punta Gorda, Florida, were Deanna Rohrbach Rossow, Stephane Sundine, Linda Swanson Nygaard, Merikay Jones Willer, and Audrey Verberg Olson. While on the 21st Judy Pieper Wyatt and Marie Flatley enjoyed key lime pie, the sunshine, and catching up at Keegan's in Indian Rocks Beach.

On February 26, 2025, a balmy 66 degree day in Omaha, these guys stepped out to join others from the Moline class of 65. And life looks pretty good from the smiling faces of Jeff Johnson, Mike Best, Ivan Streit, and Nick Eastland. 

On December 2nd, 2024, classmates Jeff Johnson, Carol Peterson Weisheit, Vikki Carss Odell, and Sue Harper Amour met for a visit and a meal at The Huckleberry Restaurant in Lewisville, CO.

In February 2024, sunny Florida drew Marg Rosborough Duer, Pam Peterson Verhille, and Linda Swanson Nygaard to meet in Naples.

Our Foreign Exchange Student -- Nazek Fahmy Habib

It's been far too long (50+ years) since we've heard much from our class exchange student, Nazek Fahmy, but Mary Parsons Caisley, her Moline host, recently met up with her in Alexandria, Egypt. It looks like a joyous reunion.  And we've been given the okay to post these pictures of them now.  Hopefully we can get a little more information later.

More photos. . . 

If you'd like to post photos, just let us know or just add to the albums already available under the section called Photos: Then and Now.  Two more albums were added recently for the 30th and 35th reunions.  Please feel free to include your photos in them.  You never know when they might put a smile on someone's face.
