The highlight of our 35th Reunion in June 2000 was an amazing video produced by Dave Crawley especially for the Class of '65. Dave spent innumerable hours of personal time and many sleepless nights to produce this special treasure. By combining current and vintage photos submitted by classmates, footage of old home movies, new video selections and taped "interviews" with classmates, Dave created a memorable and very professional keepsake. Its premier showing at the Saturday evening dinner was received with a standing ovation and teary eyes.
Here's what the critics had to say:
- "If you missed the reunion, whatever you do, don't miss out on the videotape. It's one of the most beautifully crafted stories I have ever seen. Dave Crawley should get an Emmy for this one. He has blended humor and heartache so beautifully that you are laughing while wiping tears from your cheeks" Vicki Forsht Williams
- "What a piece of work that video was! Dave, you RULE. For any of you who weren't there, buy it and be prepared for the best wringing out you've had in a while. It'll rock your world" Jenny Griga Austin
- "The reunion video means more to me then I can say. It brings laughter, tears and memories of our youth that will be cherished forever" Marge Alvaro Richardson
- "I received the video yesterday and have watched it four times now. WOW! What a treasure" Don Cummings
- "The video was great, great, great" Dave Weber
- "Unlike most of today's films, this one more than lives up to the hype. I gave it an enthusiastic thumbs up! The video has all the drama, passion, nostalgia, suspense and romance of Gone With The Wind" Dottie Grooms Preston
Copies of the video are available. (Ron Callahan is contemplating buying copies to give as gifts to classmates unable to attend the reunion). To purchase this special keepsake, contact Judy Gordon - "Judy-Gordon@Surrattsville65.org".
