Do you recognize any of these Kerrville students from the late 1960s?

If you were in the Kerrville public schools in the late 1960s, you'll probably recognize at least one person in the photos below.  Please use the comments to help me identify these kiddos.  Thanks!

  3. In the fifth photo, entitled "Tivy students rehearsing a play, Kerrville, late 1960s,"

    on the back row, the middle person is Becky Dozier. Standing to the right of Becky is George Hammond.

    The girl who is sitting in the chair is Heather Sutherland:

    (her mother was one of the best teachers ever to walk through the Tivy High School Doorway)

    (her mother also loved to doodle - I have a final exam paper that is covered in doodling as proof - the students loved that teacher).

    (Note to Mrs. Sutherland - while I was too shy to stand in front of the class and recite the Preamble to the United States Constitution, I knew every word by heart - still do.

    Therefore, I hope that you will change my grade in your grade book :).

  10. Looked at this a few times and don't recall anyone identifying the dairy team member lower second from left.. I moved from Kerrville in early '66 (fourth grade) and he brings to mind a classmate whose name I believe was Bobby Love. But, though I still have family in the area, I never kept up with classmates well so take that for what it's worth..
