Jane Whitefield
Janie
says that growing up and attending
John
Burroughs
elementary school was the fun time of her life.
She loved the parties at
Linda
Wolfe
’s, going to the Pines Theatre. She
said she could not understand why the boys were so bashful, but then again she
said she was bashful also.
Here first kiss was Dickie Hill (whatever happened to
Dick
?) at one of those “spin the bottle” parties.
At Roosevelt Jr. High her first love was
Roy
Hess
.
After CHS Janie worked as a long distance operator for the Telephone Company.
Then she went to work at Tri State Insurance and soon afterwards met her
husband who was a fireman. After 32
years of marriage,
Janie
’s husband passed away of a heart attack.
They have two daughters and four grandchildren.
She is now retired and loving it.
After never dating for ten years after her husband’s death, she attended the
2001 reunion. She saw a good looking
fellow CHS and
Burroughs
graduate by the name of
Billy
Harrison
and wondered if he were single.
Fred
Benford
(Fast Freddy) stepped into the picture, brought
Billy
over to the table and forced them to get acquainted … again, after all these
years.
Billy
called her for a date and she refused, being so shy.
Donna Lane
got on her case and she called
Billy
back and set up a date. They have
been going steady ever since.
Janie
’s hobbies are Grand kids, Bunco, working crossword puzzles, bowling and of
course going to all those hockey games with
Billy
Harrison
and watching all the OU games with
Billy
,
Donna Lane
and her husband
Leroy
.
