Good idea, John. I like having spouses on the list, and even kids, as we old
farts can barely keep track of our own family, much less everyone else's.
And if you ever find yourself on Route 66 (I-40) you are more than welcome to
visit us.
Side note, I don't recall that Leslie Abernathy was ever in the Band. He was a
CT, originally from Tulia, here in the Panhandle. He passed away a decade or
more ago.
I think he made the list because he was friends with a lot of us.
As far as A&M giving us info, "Find an Aggie" on the AFS web site brings up
about 60 names that I knew were BQs and some I don't know. That's using the
search terms Band and 1977. Brings up some Symphonic Band members.

Not trying to take over, but wondered if it might not be easier to just have a
shared spreadsheet and let everyone update their information or enter
information they have on our classmates. Would also be nice to keep the
Deceased list updated for us all. Maybe someone can enter the years.
Something like this:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bFeH2fhMEU7JQNP8khGABz20qdFRci1GJ5ZTFyRSoGg/edit?usp=sharing
This is the information from one of the spreadsheets you shared.
This also lets others consume the information for their own needs.
Don’t know if A&M has a way for us to get more of our classmate contact info so
we can get them back in our chats.
I enjoy hearing the stories that I have long forgotten. Also, now that Sandy
and I are both retired we are traveling and I am looking at the list to see if
I can stop in and see you all when we are driving through.
