10-22-01 Comments: I went to Verdun High School in 1963 and I am looking for my dorm roommate Pat Hill. I last saw her in Miami Florida after she graduated. She was married and had twins in 1967. Does anyone know where she is? [jp note: Pat Hill was not a student at Chas. She attended Verdun & some of those students remember her, but do not know where she is today. But, Kathleen is a very interesting person with whom to correspond. She has nice memories of her years in France.)

KING, Jack - OHS '68

1-18-06  Hello Jenelle, congrats on your web site. It certainly has a lot to offer especially if you like time tripping. Here is mine which is still under construction, joanyonthepony.com. My family was stationed in Toul from 57-62 and Orleans from 63-67.  There are two other web sites from Orleans alumni, Orleansamericanhighschool.com and Orleanstrojans.com.  Another web site from Toul Rosiere and the Toul Nancy area takes place mostly in late 50's early 60's is trab.packwebs.net. Have you seen those? I saw Mike Gagne's name. Same one that attended OHS in the mid 60's, spoke French?  Still exploring your web site. Jack King

[jpnote:  I don't know if Mike Gagne' attended school at Orleans.  He did attend at Chateauroux and graduated in Maine in 1968.]

7-25-04: C’est une expérience extraordinaire pour moi de découvrir tous ces témoignages d’un Châteauroux que je n’ai pas connu (je suis né en 1980) et dont mon grand père et mon père m’ont si souvent parlé.

"It is an extraordinary experience for me to discover all these testimonies [memories; recollections] of Chateauroux that I did not know [about] (I was born in 1980) and about which my grandfather and my father so often told me."
