I went to Remington , graduated in "66" It was great. Times were different of course but we still received a great education and had fun at the same time.. The only thing I have missed is REUNIONS. Which we have only had 2. Would love to see all the people. Was going to say older, but I haven't gotten there yet. LOL!!
My name was Leierer when I went to Remington..
