Comments: I can’t wait to hear from my classmates. Going to FHS was such a good time. Although I did not graduate with the class, (because we moved to Wisconsin in November 1983) I still consider myself a member of the class of ’84 because of the strong connections that I had with a wonderful group of people. For us that have children, I feel so sad for the children because they won’t get a chance to experience what we did, everlasting friendships. So many children don’t get a chance to go to school with the same group of people as long as we did. Many classmates went to the same elementary or middle schools; an excellent way to develop long lasting friendships.

Comments: It's great to see the names of classmates from my elementary, junior high and high school years. Although I graduated from Lumberton I still feel close to French High and the friends I made those years. I've been in Baton Rouge with my wife and 2 children for 2 years now but we still miss Texas. It's great to find this website. P.S. I've been searching for yearbooks from 80-81 & 81-82 to purchase.

Comments: I surfed on by referral from Susan Heinen Robinson. We work together. I am a legal assistant with a lawfirm that I have been with for 18 years and worked for my boss for 16 of those years. I love my job and I love that Susie-Q has come to work with me. I went to the 20 year class reunion at the urging of Regina Barnes and had a better time than I expected. It would have been nice if more people I knew had been there. I hope more people go to the next one - whether it's the 25 or the 30.

I have five wonderful children: Drake (17); Michael (7); Ally (4); Abby (3) and Elijah (1). The youngest three are my foster children that I am hoping to get to adopt this year. Hope to hear from old classmates and friends
I just wanted to say hello to everyone. I have been trying to find Nicole Malbrough but I haven't been too lucky on finding anything out in regards to where she is now. I have just adopted two boys, Drake is 11 yrs and Michael is now 2 yrs. I became their foster parent when they were 10yrs and 11months respectively. It has been a great experience for me.

This was the game between Beaumont French and Odessa Permian. If by some miracle you did, and still have it or the French vs SA Madison Semi, I would be glad to pay you for a copy. If you know someone that might have it, please forward my email. I would be very grateful. Thanks, Charlie

Of course Mrs. Slaughter and Mr. Cantu were my favorite teachers. One of the funniest memories was when the band went to Florida and we marched at Disney World.

Comments: I found this place again through a Google search and thought I'd update my profile and email address. I still live and work in the Tampa Bay area and am the mother to a 21 yr old son. I'm an interiorscaper and love what I do. Who'da thunk that I'd have turned out to have green thumbs? I read, grow orchids, workout, and collect horse figurines in my spare time. I still have family in the Beaumont area and try to get home at least once a year. High school was a great time. I have fond memories of cruising Dowlen Rd with my high school sweetheart, John Buehrle, in his old Impala and hanging out with Poochie and Steven Briggs. It's great to see so many familiar names here. It's hard to believe so much time has passed. I still picture all of us as we were in school. You can see what I look like now on Classmates.com
Wonder what happened to my favorite teacher, Mrs. MacMillian - art?

This is too cool!!! I always gripe that I don't see any of my classmates. Now at least we can talk to each other and learn about each other. I've been married for 13 years to my wife Michelle. I have a good job that I love. We live in a small house in Sour Lake. My favorite teacher was Chuck Lowe. He taught us more about life than anything else. He was a great man. But boy, could he swing a paddle !!!
