Lost Classmates, Lost Souls...

We certainly hope no one's soul is lost, or will be lost. But if this helps catch your attention, then it serves its purpose. Unfortunately, despite extensive efforts, there are a substantial number of classmates, friends, and faculty whom we have been unable to find to date. Perhaps making the List of the Lost publicly available will help locate them - many, it is hoped - but we will settle for what we get. Searching is, frankly, time-consuming and we are shamelessly appealing for help in this endeavor, asking all of you in our Band of ILS Brothers and Sisters to lend a hand - or two.

The list is also going out in the mailers being sent to those we have found but for which no email address is available. There are approximately 50 invitations going out to Immaculata alumnae, and about 25 for LaSalle alumni. We will keep our fingers crossed and pray for a good response from them.

In finding people, there are many search methods available today, and thank God for that - these range from WhitePages.com, to Zabasearch.com, Google, and others available to professionals, such as LexisNexis. Sometimes all you need to find someone is a little bit or byte of information - date of birth, place of birth, parents' names and even last known address. If you can provide any facts, information, data about any of our friends and former companions on these lists, or even want to do some sleuthing yourself, please share your findings with the Infernal Committee and the quest shall continue until we find all, or as many as possible, of those still with us. Nothing is impossible...remember our graduation theme song was The Impossible Dream! Re-read the words and you will understand.





An update to the lists above is in order; just as your bloggermate was about to publish this post, a copy of the Twentieth Reunion directory was received, courtesy of Rick Astray-Caneda. In reviewing the "In Memoriam" section, found some of our classmates listed above had passed away by 1988 - which unfortunately effectively ends the search for them. They were:

A. Zeida Arocha, Michelle Ann Callahan, and Margarita Lejarza. Before the Reunion, we will honor and remember here our ILS men and women who will be with us in spirit.

If you notice anyone has been missed, or have another classmate/former classmate/faculty
member you would like added to the list - and help look for him or her - please let us know as soon as possible. Time marches on and before we know, it will be Reunion Time!
