Semi-retired attorney and community activist in Pacific Palisades. Found this Website too late for 50th Reunion. Sorry I missed it but no one at Samohi had any information about it.

Happily retired from Accounting/Business Management career;very happily married for 18 yrs.; 3 great"kids" and 7 grandchildren. I keep in touch with many Samohi friends and would love to be in touch with more! I still have wonderful memories of great times at Samohi and would enjoy sharing them! Be in touch; I'd love hearing from you!

Would have graduated midyear 49 at SaMoHi, but moved back to Iowa and graduated there. Would like to reestablish connections with those I knew at Franklin and Lincoln Jr high (1942-1943).

Never left Santa Monica. Two sons attended Samohi and expect my five grandchildren will likewise attend Samohi. Retired Attorney. Author of "Beyond the Grave--the Right Way and the Wrong Way of Leaving Money to Children," Harper/Collins

I was known as Paul Huntsberger during high school days. I'm very proud to be a Samohi alumnus. I am retired from teaching at The University of Texas at Austin and enjoying summers at my cabin in south-central Colorado. I would enjoy communicating with other members of the class of 1949. I have several hobbies: astronomy, 4-string banjo; 35mm photography; and birding. Mr. Max Silvernale, biology teacher, made a very permanent positive impression on me at Samohi and influenced much of success as a teacher.

I am married and have four children. I would love to hear from any of my old friends.

My sister and I are entering this in memorium for our beloved father, DAVID LOUIS KOHLER. He was a Santa Monica police officer from 1956 to 1960. He was killed while on duty in a traffic accident. Many of you knew him better than we did, since we were only 6 and 7 years old when he died. My sister and I would love to hear from anyone who knew our father. Please e-mail us. Thank you! With much love ...

Hi to all 49'r. I'm well and healthy as 74 years can be. Playing jazz guitar in four different groups keeps me out of trouble. Due to retirement planning and dumb luck, I can now afford to be a "Starving Musician". With wife Lee (52 years) we travel a lot and play with our eight grandchildren. In June, 05 we will attend graduation ceremonies for our oldest, Tyler Burdick, Samohi '01, at U C Santa Cruz. then we will continue on to Yelm, Washington for Lee's 55th high school reunion.

Married Di Ann Blanck (a Puny Uni Hi grad) in 1954. Have 3 children, 14 grandkids. Live in San Juan Capistrano. My career was in local government. Served as City Manager of South Pasadena, Baldwin Park, San Jacinto, and San Juan Capistrano. Was adjunct professor of Government in the Masters of Public Administration programs at both USC and Cal State Long Beach. Happy, healthy, and enjoying retirement.

I was salutatorian for the class of 1949 (the forty-niners), an editor of the Samohi paper and played flute in the band, marching in the Rose Parade with my brother who was two years ahead of me. I was more than a little disappointed that our 50th anniversary (1999) passed without any notice at all. I was told I would be welcome at the usual picnic! I hope some of my classmates are still around and that through the website I may find some of them. I am retired, but still busy after founding the department of Religious Studies at the University of Missouri, Columbia in 1981 and teaching there for 20 years. I also was a professor at Duke University (1973-81) and UCR (1969-73). My Ph.D. is from the University of Chicago (1970). It's been a good career and a good life and still is, I'm happy to say.

I can't believe I turned 70, It's scary. I married Loretta Gordon (52) and have three great kids and three grandkids. We retired in Las Vegas the entertainment center of the world. We love it!

Hi, I've been thinking of going on the internet and looking up Samohi information, had no luck until I tried plain old "Samohi". I'm divorced, widowed, have one son, one Snauzer and am living in Valencia, CA. Like Santa Clarita but really miss the Ocean!

A retired radio broadcaster that would love to hear from old friends from Samohi.

I would appreciate being able to see if any of my old friends are on line. You have a great site. Congratulations. Keep it up.

This is a great website and a great way to get in touch with old friends. My wife, Mary Jane (McCully), and I graduated together in 1949. We were married in 1954 and this year we are celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. I am still practicing dentistry in Santa Monica and hope to retire in 20 years. Bill Werner
