Thanks to the Website......I now have my 1967 St Louis Alumni class ring. 

Forty-two years ago as a college student in New Hampshire, I lost my high school ring.
This past summer, a vacationer from NH noticed our new sign in front of the Hall.  It
occurred to him that the Eagles on the class ring, just might be the SL Eagles.  He
found our website and emailed the Hall describing a “Class of 67 ring inscribed with
the initials R.E.A.R. “(no laughing, please).  Long story short,  we connected and after
all this time, thanks to the website,  I have my ring back.     ~Ray “Ham” Roy~
