Looking for memorabilia from the class of 1984
Hello alumni!
My brother, Tim Lipham, was a 1984 honor graduate of DHS & was also a defensive starter for the great Tiger team that went to state ('83-'84). He now lives in our hometown of Floydada & his home burned on June 18th, & they lost everything. They are all safe and financially fine, but what they are grieving about is the loss of photos & memorabilia. Floydada schools and friends are helping to recreate the memories for their 2 sons- Mason was a 2010 honor graduate from Floydada & currently attends Texas Tech, & Haden will be a FHS junior next year. Our family is trying to gather memorabilia for Tim, so I was hoping that fans and classmates woudl be willing to dig up some of your memorabilia so that I can make copies to recreate the scrapbook that we presented to Tim at graduation. Team pictures, group pictures, newspaper clippings, etc. would be great. And I really hope to get a copy of the video that the TV station made of highlights of that year... If you have any of these items that you would let me make copies of, I would appreciate it so much. I still live in Daingerfield and work in Mt, Pleasant.
We have a friend in Floydada that follows Texas high school football that has already contacted friends that he has at UIL & has gotten Tim another state medal, and they are also getting Tim another letter jacket. This is all a surprise to Tim, so if you remember what patches he would have gotten for his jacket, that information would be a great help to us since we are trying to get this all without his knowledge.
I have also placed a letter in the Bee asking fans & classmates to let me make copies of pictures or newspaper stories that they may have, so I've reached out in every way that I can think of.
Any help that you can provide would be so appreciated!
Thanks,
Charlotte
