Someone wanted to know who
were the Cherokees of my class of '55. My old yearbook has been bled dry
from "friends" snitching pieces from it. I can't even find some of my own
pictures in it. Off the top of my head I can remember: Mose July, Leonard
Ross, Galedia Adair, Monty Lee Rogers, Sandy..........
Here is what I have so far but I will keep searching. Really someone like
Ken Ellis, Trent Tilly or one of the alumni would be better for this. James
Edwards, past president could be more informative.
