After they retired, Barbara and Raymond spent their time at their homes in Camarillo, Calif and Queen Charlotte, British Columbia.

Sad news for the Class of 1964... Thank You, Pam, for the notice. May the Lord comfort the family I pray.
Dear Friends...
Just wanted you to know that the BHS Class of 1964 has lost another dear classmate...Mike Jelen passed away shortly before Christmas...Mike was a great guy, very intelligent and had a good sense of humor. Mike was in Miss Imbach's Senior English Class with Jon and me and he used to join us at the weekly "Monday Night Football" gatherings at Sam Licursi's apartment in the early 1970's..He will definitely be missed by his family and friends...

Dear Pam,
I thought you would want to know that Mike Jelen died before Christmas of heart disease, a complication of his diabetes. His sister called me and said that a memorial will be planned for January or February. I will let you know. I know you aren't doing a regular newsletter, but in case you put one out in the next few months, you can feel free to include this info.

Pauline Peterson Cozzens, BHS '64 (1947-2012)
Just received the following sad news from Alan Landros...
Please keep Pauline's family in your prayers.
Pauline Peterson Cozzens passed away last night, Tuesday, November 27, at her home in San Marcos with her family with her. She was officially diagnosed with Stage Four Colon and Liver Cancer on May 24, 2012, six months and three days before her death. She was 65. Below is the message her mother, Virginia, sent me this morning.
Pauline was a 1964 graduate of Burbank High School, and this message is going to several of her classmates. (1947 is her correct year of birth. She finished school early.)
Alan also wrote this...
Pauline was a committed Born-Again Christian. All of her family was looking forward to her Homegoing to end the awful suffering she has endured for sometime now. A pain pump was finally implanted this past Sunday, but she still had horrible pain even with the pump. Pauline had been THE secretary at the Christian school connected to their church in San Marcos, Tri-City Christian School, for 25 years until she was forced to retire last May due to her illness. I've probably told you before that Pauline's dad, Paul Peterson BHS '35, was the pastor of the former First Baptist Church which was across from BHS at Fairmount and Glenoaks all throughout the 1960's while all of us were at BHS. Her grandfather, Emanuel Peterson, was the founder of Emmanuel Evangelical Free Church in Burbank at Harvard and Fifth Streets in 1941. One of her uncles was Roland "Pete" Peterson BHS '39, and longtime BHS teacher and coach. Two of her cousins are Linda Peterson Everett BHS '67, and Louanne Peterson BHS '70. Other family members who were BHS alums were uncle, Reinold Peterson BHS '32, and uncle and aunt, Arnold Peterson BHS '30 and Margaret Basolo Peterson BHS '30, and aunt, Ruth Peterson Finch BHS '44. (note: Emanuel Peterson is correct with one "m"; Emmanuel Church is correct with two "m" 's.)

Doris Adams Remembers Tim Burton, BHS '76
Received my Senior Bulldogs Newsletter today which is full of interesting info including this...
Mrs Doris Adams taught ART at BHS in the 1960’s and 1970’s. she is a very talented artist herself. She is now in late 80’s and still very active and involved in many things. She lives in Aliso Viejo in Orange County.
One of her BHS Art students was writer/producer/director Tim Burton, BHS ’76. About two years ago Tim Burton reconnected with Mrs Adams while he was preparing for the exhibit of his own art at two US shows, first in NYC at the Museum of Modern Art and then in Los Angeles at the LA County Museum of Art from May to October of 2011. Tim had a film crew go to Mrs Adams’ home to interview her in early 2011. That footage was edited into a video that was shown on monitors that the public could see during his art exhibits in the museums in both NY and LA. In the video Mrs Adams shares her memories of having Tim as a student at BHS, how quiet he was, how he always finished his art assignments early, all fond memories of Tim. Tim invited Mrs Adams and her whole family to the opening of his art exhibit in Los Angeles at the County Museum of Art in May of 2011, and they attended!
Recently in mid-September Mrs Adams received another invitation from Tim Burton, this time for her and her family to attend the premier of his newest film, “Frankenweenie”, which was held later in September! Mrs Adams thought we would like to know that Tim does remember his days at BHS.
Another of Doris Adams’ former BHS Art students, Alan Landros ’70, is in contact with her from time to time, and he received a note from her in September where she told of her latest contact with Tim Burton.

Thank You, Teri Hill Clark, BHS '68 for posting the following :)
"We've come a long way, baby! In digging through 'Grannie's Trunk', I found this news article on one of our own forging the path!!! I will be putting the original in the mail to Teri McComas.

Help Wanted! Burbank Senior Bulldogs Website
Received this note today from Carol Brown Baker, BHS '67:
Burbank Senior Bulldogs Website
As we continue to look at the costs to produce the Burbank Sr. Bulldogs newsletter, one option we are entertaining is developing a website. Many people have access to the internet, and if we put the newsletter online it will reduce the number of newsletters that we send out.
In order to do this we are desperately looking for people that will assist us in the development of the website. I know there are many classmates that have this expertise and hope that you will contact us and volunteer a little of your time.
Please contact BurbankSrBulldogs@yahoo.com
PS If in town, please come to the Burbank Sr. Bulldogs luncheon on Monday. Read more HERE.

Group unveils website to promote historic preservation in Burbank
By Mark Kellam, mark.kellam@latimes.com
September 4, 2012
http://www.burbankleader.com/the818now/tn-blr-0904-group-unveils-website-to-promote-historic-preservation-in-burbank,0,3576972.story
Information about how to designate a home as a historic landmark is now just a click away.
The new website preserveburbank.com outlines what the city offers regarding historic preservation, said Greg Rehner, founder of Preserve Burbank, a grassroots organization set up to share potential preservation opportunities with local property owners.
The site features links to applications to begin the historic designation process for individual homes, or to sign up to possibly receive a property tax deduction through the Mills Act, which provides tax abatements for historic properties.
City Council members recently approved guidelines for establishing historic districts — an application for which will be on the website once the paperwork is finalized, Rehner said.
There is also a link to take a visual tour around the city that features homes that have been designated as historic, are in the designation process, or have the potential to be considered historically significant.
“One of the things we often hear from residents in Burbank — and some longtime residents, actually — [is that] they feel there is nothing left in Burbank to preserve,” Rehner said. “If people look at what Burbank still has left, they’d see a lot. There are still properties worth preserving.”
The site also outlines the top-10 myths about historical preservation, including a big one: that a homeowner cannot change a house in any way after it’s listed as a landmark.
Interior changes and renovations to exterior parts of a house that can’t be seen from the street are actually permitted, mirroring historic preservation rules in other cities, such as Glendale.
On the homepage, there is a link to a section dedicated to the Burbank Central Library, located at Glenoaks Boulevard and Olive Avenue. Completed in 1963, the library features a unique architectural design.
“It’s a rare example of Mid-Century Modernist New Formalism,” Rehner said, adding that the building has not been listed as historically significant, but Preserve Burbank members have been talking to city officials about making it a landmark.
Rehner said the organization, which started about two years ago, has grown its membership to more than 400 and the website is already generating new members.
Just three homes in Burbank have received historic designations, but eight property owners have submitted applications to be considered for the landmark process.

Vic Moon, BHS '66 (1948-2007)
Victor Leslie Moon16 August 1948 – 17 January 2007
Today Elizabeth Lynn Moon posted on BHS Memorial Facebook wall:
"Happy Birthday little brother (Vic Moon '66) you are missed and much loved."
I didn't know he had passed away and was sorry to read this. When I asked how he died and if I could put a notice here, she wrote:
"Vic died January 16th (or early 17th), 2007. Five years plus already. I imagine it was the cancer that finally got him, but it was basically Viet Nam and the Agent Orange."
August 17, 2012 UPDATE
Received this from Elizabeth...
Hi, Cathy!
This is an email I sent out letting friends know of Vic's passing back those five years ago.
You're welcome to use any part of it for the memorial page that you think is appropriate.
My dear friends and loving friends of Vic Moon,
The night of January 16-17, 2007 my dear and special little brother, Vic passed peacefully out of his body and on to a much easier existence in his new light body form. I am told that friends who knew it was close stopped by to check on him and his newly departed form was sitting in his chair with the remote in hand in his own home; a good way to go.
For those who measure the value of life in money and accomplishments, please know that Vic was rich in a much more enduring form. He was surrounded all his life with a loving, supportive family of friends and he chose his path. There is no greater wealth.
While we all have every right to express whatever sorrow comes up for our loss, please never doubt that for Vic this is undoubtedly a joyous time, for he has shed a form that has long been difficult, and now that wonderful upbeat, fun-loving spirit bears no more shackles.
For me I ask that condolences not be the form of communication. I want to focus on his release and lightness. I would love, however to hear any fun, warm and fond memories of Vic you have to share. My email is elizabethlmoon@sbcglobal.net.
I don’t remember Vic ever being “down”, although pain was his partner most of his life, and most assuredly daily, since shortly after his return from Vietnam due to a motorcycle accident that almost cost his life.
Vic loved his yearly visits to Nanaimo, B.C. Canada to spend a fun-filled summer week with two dear friends, others he grew to know and love, and the festivities of the week of Silly Boat Races and the famous Bathtub Races. I was so intrigued by this habit that I joined him one week a few years ago and understand completely!
I don’t think there’s a place that meant more to him and so that will be the place his physical form will reunite with the earthly elements.
Because friends and family are in remote places, and because I honestly don’t believe Vic would have wanted a cluster of grieving people to be the last memory of him, I’d like to suggest the following:
On Friday, January 26th either go to a hamburger place (Vic loved Bob’s and we always went there when we were down for a visit) and have a hamburger, send him some love and/or warm wishes and if you feel like it and are with others, share stories of your good memories of Vic.
Or if you prefer, pour your favorite drink (alcohol or not – your preference) or go to a bar or club that makes you feel “at home.”
Vic loved this one and I’m sure his friends will be there:
Blue Room
(323) 849-2779
916 S San Fernando Blvd
Burbank, CA 91502
Map it | Get directions
Have a drink and likewise enjoy yourself, think good and loving thoughts of Vic, share stories and laugh. Let’s make it a virtual (and/or global) gathering of good memories and warm hearts to connect and launch him at 6:00pm PST (you might want to arrive at your target site a bit earlier) on Friday, January 26th.
Laughter is a requirement. Vic was really good at that, had a wonderful sense of humor, and I know he would rather be sent off with laughter than with tears.

Carmen Edwards Meyer, BHS '42 (1924-2012)
May the Lord comfort the family and friends of Carmen we pray...
Carmen M Meyer, 87 passed away peacefully August 10, 2012 with her loving husband, Ted CP Meyer & son, Richard C Meyer, & daughters Lynne C Retmier & Sharon A Adams at her side with Elizabeth Hospice.
Carmen was born December 17th, 1924 in Blodgett, Missouri to Jewell Boyd Edwards & Della Gertrude Holifield. By 15 she & family moved to Burbank, Calif. where she completed HS. She worked at Lockheed, lived at home with her parents who rented rooms. My dad saw this redhead at work & then a picture in the house he was renting a room from & asked about her. This was in November, 1942. The romance started & they were married December 31, 1942. They both decided that was a good day because there was “always a party to go to”! This year is their 70th year together.
Carmen was a meticulous homemaker & fulltime mother in the So Ca, when the children were small. After that she worked at Farmer's as an underwriter & made that her career until retirement. In 1994 Carmen & Ted moved to Oceanside, Ca.
Carmen was preceded in death by her parents, her three brothers, & one sister. She is survived by her husband Ted, son Rick, daughters Lynne & Sharon, their spouses, five grandchildren, their spouses, fourteen great grandchildren, one great great grandchild, & two nephews.
You will be dearly missed & I love you mom!

BHS Mini Reunion Sept 8, 2012
Received this from Dave LeSueur just now, so please spread the word!
And CONGRATULATIONS DAVE, JOHN and ALL 2012 INDUCTEES!
And CONGRATULATIONS DAVE, JOHN and ALL 2012 INDUCTEES!
Hi Cathy! As you know, I am being inducted into the BHS Athletic Hall of Fame on Saturday, Sept. 8. Another basketball player (from the class of '65), John Gaball, is also being inducted. So I am hosting a reception/get together on Saturday, September 8, from noon until 3 p.m. at Burbank High honoring the basketball teams of 1965 (Gaball's team) and 1967 (my team). The event is not just for the players but also for any friends, relatives, well-wishers, and former groupies who want to come. Basically, it's an excuse to get together with people who, understandably, are not interested in coming to the ceremony that night but would still like to visit with friends from that era. All classes are invited.
Could you advertise this in your blog? I don't have any way to contact members of the '67 team other than Ron Davidson and Benton White. Hopefully, the others will hear about the event and be able to come.
The reception honoring the '65 and '67 basketball teams will be held Saturday, Sept. 8, noon to 3 p.m., in the BHS art room and, if needed, the dance room. (The two rooms are right across the hall from each other.) It will be very informal--i.e., wear whatever you like.
The evening ceremony is being held in the BHS gym. There is a "meet and greet" at 5:30 pm with the ceremony starting at 6:00 pm.
Thanks for your help!
Dave
John Gaball, BHS '65
Dave LeSueur, BHS '67
Coach Loutensock will also be honored. Here are his teams from 1965-1967
