[QUOTE="donna723, post: 387228, member: 1883"] We moved from St. Louis to Florida when I was a kid and I've been on Facebook and managed to reconnect with several people I went to school with that I haven't seen since I was eleven years old! One in particular was a girl who was my best friend throughout my childhood and I was so happy to find her again! We've been emailing back and forth ever since. And through her, I've hooked up with several more. It's been [U]53 years[/U] since I've seen these people! Then after I graduated from high school in Florida, I lost track of virtually everyone I went to school with there. We all went our different ways and then we moved to Tennessee and I didn't think I'd ever hear from any of them again. It's not easy to find anyone because most of the womens last names have changed and everyone has scattered, but then we all managed to find each other on Facebook! There's a page now for our high school and most of them are on there. It's so neat to find out what happened to everyone! These are people that I haven't talked to since I was 18 and now we're sharing pictures of our grandchildren! I've even met up with a few who now live close by! Two of them actually live within an hours drive from where I live now! Most of my family (my dad's side) still live in St. Louis over 300 miles from me but I can keep in touch with them so much easier now. But there is one cousin on my mom's side that I would love to reconnect with but probably never will. My mom was an only child and we've pretty much lost track of that whole side of the family. We were raised closely with the daughter of one of my mom's cousins and we were constantly together throughout our childhood. We had so much fun and got in to so much trouble together when we were kids! I honestly don't even know if she's still alive - I assume she is, but who knows? I know her first married name but she divorced and remarried and I have no idea what her last name is now. I've searched on Facebook for her two daughters but they've probably married too and have different names - I can't find any of them. I even went on Classmates.com and posted a message on the page for what would have been her high school graduating class but have heard nothing. [/QUOTE]
