I do not see my post on here so will try again, sorry if it shows on here twice later. I lost my class ring in 1972, the year I graduated. It was gold and had a mother of pearl stone in it. It was very special to me and sure would love to get it back. Thank you for your time.
My ring has been miss since 1972, it is gold with mother of pearl stone. If by any chance it is out there, please let me know at darcyjokassin@gmail.com. Thanks for your help, would really love to get that back.
My ring has been gone since 1968 so the chances of seeing it again are slim to none. Its a 1966 IM with a blue stone. Thanks for the posting. Linda Janssen Ciochetto Lindalu52@comcast.net

Hi,
I didn't find a ring, but I bought something at a flea market in Rochester, Minn. this weekend that might be of interest to some alumni of your school. It is 2 large poster-sized paper boards with some portraits of students done by the teacher, Mrs. H. Stahmann. There are very lovely, colorful crayon portraits of the following children -
Margaret Johnson, Patricia Visintainer, Brian Barglind, Chris Alberti, Jonnette Bell, and Betty VanGinkle. 4 portraits on each board. At the bottom of each poster the teacher (also the artist) wrote "Quinnesec, Michigan Kindergarten 1954-1955 H. Stahmann. I bought them from the daughter in law of H. Stahmann, who's husband had recently died. She was selling some of her mother-in-laws' artwork.
They are charming pictures and I bought them for that reason and then thought that if I could contact any of the "kids", maybe they would want them. It sounded like she was a very special, dear teacher who kids would just go over to her house and ask her to "draw me!"
The little Quinnesec school is probably closed now after 50+ years...
Would you be able to locate any of these names in your database, or list of alumni somewhere? This school must have been in your area....I'm from White Bear Lake, Minn and don't really know anything about UP Michigan except that it's gorgeous and you get lots of the snow that always passes us by.
Anyway, I would appreciate any info you could give me. I am not selling these for profit or anything. I just want the "kids" to have them, if it is a precious memory. If they are not interested, I am happy to keep them. Do you have any advise on how to contact them? Thanks so much for any help you can offer!
H. Stamann's daughter-in -law was also excited when I told her that I would try to find the kids in the portraits. She wanted me to let her know how it turned out.
Thanks,
Karen Thorson
