The Class of 1957 Reunion Committee is planning to hold the next reunion in April/May 2010. Many people felt that waiting for 5 or 10 years between reunions was too long to wait to be together again. This is why the Committee thought that two and a half years would be a nice amount of time between reunions. Please email the Reunion Committee at bccclass1957@yahoo.com for more information.1957ChangMerisOn 9/13/05 at 21:42:58:
Now there is a much simpler way to access the B-CC Class of 1957 website -- just use BccClass1957.com to get to it.
More people are registering on the website every day. Their profiles telling what they have done since graduation only confirm the tremendous diversity of our class in their vocations and their avocations.
I encourage all 1957 alumni to check in and check out this terrific source of information about the Fiftieth Reunion which will be in October, 2007. It will give you an opportunity to reconnect with old friends with whom you have lost touch and develop new friends with whom you find you share common interests that developed after graduating from B-CC.

The new look is overwhelming. The last time I passed by the school was in January 2001. It was still under construction. Hope the next time I am in the States to visit. Still remember and love the old building, it had class! Does anyone from the class of 1957 have any news on Fran Schow???? of Margaret Lovejoy - class of 1958??? Please advise.

In Memoriam

James D. Sheldon (1939-2003), 12/11/03
My dad was James D. Sheldon and he was in the class of 1957 at B-CC. I would like to let his classmates know that James D. Sheldon passed away just a few months ago due to a failure in his system. My father was pretty healthy for the most part of his life, but he just started feeling terrible for the last ten days of his life.

James D. Sheldon would always talk about his days in high school and I would like anybody else that recalls my dad to let me know what they know about him. I can recall when he told me about a so-called cool guy passing out in biology class due to examine a frog this would have been either in 1956 or 1957. He even told me a story about how he was on the track team.

If you have any information on James D. Sheldon please email me Jessica Sheldon
