Paul Hale

It was with great sadness to read about Paul. We traveled to school together on the same bus route through Elem, Jr High and HS. He was always so very sweet. Maria

I'm so sorry to hear about Paul's passing. We knew each other from the earliest grade school years on. He was a gentle bear of a guy. We were in the 4-H together as I recall and often were in the same classes and rode the same buses. In those days there was only one bus that took all us kids from the outlying areas to and from school.It was sometimes a very long ride.
I'm sorry and will miss a childhood friend.

Margaret Balinsky Hartman

 

Tribute from Camilla Zankowski Daniels

June 22, 2011
Margaret came from a demanding family. When she did not win all the awards at our high school graduation that were expected by her family, they did not give her a graduation party. She changed her clothes and soon appeared at our picnic table, where my nine siblings were in charge of my graduation party. On hearing what had happened soon a cake was redecorated and everything that went with the celebration was shared by both of us. Margaret was always welcomed at the Zankowski home. She definitely enjoyed the hubbub of my family.

Bill Adams


From Dave Wells on October 13th, 2011

I only attended FM for two years and it was a great change for me. Bill arrived for the senior year and lived down the street from me. We became good friends quickly and he was interesting and a lot of fun. It happened that we planned to attend college in the same town and so there was anticipation of the fun to continue. His life ended abruptly prior to graduation in a swimming accident.

He was quite a remarkable person who could be a bit larger than life. He was well liked and well respected, and I still think of him quite often - he was a great addition to our class for a short period of time.
