Keith DePolo
From Gail Tulley Jensen: I was just going through the Pirate site. It's great. I wanted to add Keith DePolo to the Lost List. I know he didn't graduate with us. He went on to fight in Viet Nam. Larry Copeland e-mailed me last year before I moved that Keith had passed away. Keith was involved in school sports, he was the guy I wanted to go to the Gab Dance with. He was the guy across the street with his big brother Carl. SEE PHOTO OF KEITH & BANCROFT STUDENT BODY CARD. Gail is wondering why she still has it after 45 years....

** Go to: http://www.cdva.ca.gov/memorial/cvvm.asp and search for Lloyd Martin Hammond Jr. under Alameda County. "It is very touching.I cried my eyes out when I saw it," says Kathy Tucker Lawrence. " Marty was a great guy! I loved him like a brother during those school years, Halcyon thru High School.I told him to wear that sweater for the Yearbook when he got Best Dressed."

I will always think Girl Scouts when I think of Jean. And smart. She inspired me.

I went to Christmas Ball in our Junior year with Glenn. He didn't go much for dancing, so we talked most of the night. He encouraged me to quit acting like I didn't have a brain. I'll never forget that. Jan Hansen Coleman

Terri Pace
I'll never forget summers in Clear Lake with Terri & family. She could flirt like nobody I ever knew, and get away with it. She was carefree and crazy, and I loved her for it. I spoke to her just before one of our reunions, and she was excited to see everybody, a bit scared because she'd "gained weight." I said, Terri, we all love you. It doesn't matter. She suddenly died a few weeks later. Jan Hansen Coleman

Craig Stompro
Craig was the brother I never had. We grew up on 140th, and our parents played cards together all the time. When we were in junior high I used to sneak out of the house at 3 a.m. and go on his paper route with him. The last time I saw Craig it was the early seventies. I was working at the courthouse in Oakland, and he came in for trial. I later saw him in the jail upstairs before he was sent to prison. He disappeared years ago. I never thought he'd go for a life of crime. He was so smart, too smart for his own good, but troubles obviously ran deep. I will always miss Craig. Jan
