Marilyn White Doolittle The reunion was the greatest! I hadnīt seen some of the girls in over 35 years. It started at noon--still going strong at 9--I stayed in N.Y. for three days-- didn't want to miss anything. On Monday morning I flew with Betty Broderick--Pam Suett to Belize (Central America) for 5 days. Most of my best women friends are the O.N.A. girls. Love Marilyn Bob Hughes I loved the reunion! Thanks to reunion organizers for putting this wonderful reunion together! Greetings Bob Ted Stowe had a ball at reunion! Barbara Stephen had a wonderful time at reunion! Nettie Miller extends the warmest greetings to reunion committee for the perfect organization of this fantastic event! Nettie only wishes it would have lasted longer! Paul Stark made it!!! So very nice to chat to him again! Many, many compliments about the organizational skills of the magnificent four! Big turnout and lots of fun! Hope it wont be long til next reunion!! Sandy (Marx) Van Curan The ONA reunion was a blast! There was quite a few people I hadn't seen in ages. I joined ONA in 1969. Lots of screaming and kissing! And even tears....boy how I miss those good olde days. We were young and fun and whipped around all different places in the world like we were going to the corner drug store. And we forged friendships that are still in place 34 years later! Amazing! Sandy Ras Nielsen, This last re-union was really a blast! I really enjoyed it! It was great to meet that many old friends.
