Comments:

I went to UC for four years, then became an apprentice at Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park before heading off to New York in 1973 to pursue acting and have been here ever since except for the three years I spent in L.A. (1983-86). I was married for 5 years to a wonderful guy I met at U.C., Rob Hegel, and we remain friends. I've had a wonderful life as an actor, although not always financially rewarding, it's always been good for my soul. The short film I shot in '08 (Showers of Happiness) is playing in film festivals -- so far in L.A., NJ, NY in August and will be screened in Ireland in September where it has been nominated for best film under 30 minutes. (Ours is 28, just under the wire!) Bottom line: Life is good!

School Story:

I have fond memories of school dances -- everyone dancing together in a big circle -- then hanging out at Frisches afterwards. I've always been grateful that I went to a school where learning was cool and getting good grades and going to college was the coolest thing you could do. If I hadn't gone to Woodward, who knows? I might have become a waitress at a diner. (Not that I wouldn't mind playing one on TV.)

I was sitting in the Dr.s office this past Friday morning, when I heard about this.  I was devastated.  A very talented and sweet person was taken from us, much too soon.  Rest In Peace, Charlotte.....

I am truly saddened to learn of Charlotte's passing.  I was unaware that she had been ill.  While we had not seen each other since graduating from high school, we reconnected a few  years ago when I decided reluctantly to join Facebook.  I have really enjoyed our intermittent communications over the past six years.  Charlotte was a very kind, thoughtful, loving, and talented person who will be missed.  We should all especially keep her mother, Bonnie, in our thoughts and prayers.

Charlotte, I was shocked. I did not realize that you were ill. I had missed seeing you at the 70th birthday. It was great to visit with you at our 50th reunion, and when I saw you in an off-broadway play and two caberet shows in New York. As you wrote in my year book next to your photo from Showcase, you finally achieved your dream of being the star in Showcase. 

We had such fun in Drama Club plays and working together on Showcase, and of course, taking Drama class with Mr. Anaple and directing plays. You had a lovely voice, a great spirit and a wonderful talent. I enjoyed reading your commentary on Facebook. I will miss you very much. So glad that you were in our lives.

Such sad news to learn of Charlotte's passing. She was such a talented member of our class and will be missed. I loved her quirky sense of humor with a little naughty thrown in. Rest in peace, sweet Charlotte.heart

There was never a sweeter man than John Mathews.  I have fond memories of his smile and warm personality in the halls of Woodward.  What stands out in my mind most of all, was seeing him at several events at the 40th Reunion and his telling me that his memory wasn't so good anymore and he said it slightly apologetically with his warm smile and I saw no trace of his disease, just his sweet spirit.  His light shone brightly on this earth and I will never forget him.  Rest in peace, John.

I'm so sorry to hear of Jerry's passing.  I remember him fondly and the many conversations we had about our dreams and aspirations and encouraging each other.   He wanted to be a lawyer and I wanted to be an actress.  Some years after graduation I ran into him and we were catching up on each other's lives and we were both delighted to hear that  we had both made our dreams come true.  We were almost gleeful in expressing to each other "I knew you would do it."  I'll always remember that day.
