He who has imagination without learning, has wings and no feet.
During the year that I attended St. Joseph’s High School, my dad was in Viet Nam. Since Huntington is where most of my extended family is from, My family and I lived here for the year my father was away. I did not graduate from St. Joseph, but if my dad had not been in the Army, I probably would have graduated, because Huntington is where I was born. My mother went to St. Joseph’s(Catherine Mary Butler), as well as various aunts and uncles(Elizabeth, Dorothy, James, Bill Butler).
I graduated in l972 from Lawton High School in Lawton Oklahoma. I went to college for 1 year at St. Gregory’s college in Shawnee, Okla. and 1 year at Potomac State College in Keyser, WVa. My dad retired from the army and we moved to Columbus, Ohio. Since then, I married Bruce Fingerhut in l993 and we adopted 3 wonderful boys. I worked 20 years as a childcare teacher.
I am hoping to recconect with classmates that I went to school with at St. Joseph’s. If any of you out there remember me or maybe knew the above memtioned family, I would love to hear from you. Also, I attended the 5th grate at St. Joseph Grade School. I would like to hear from Patti Pellegrini or Joe Johnston. Those are the names of classmates that I remember. If you graduated from high school in 1971, I’d like to hear from you.
