[The Mountaineer]

We will be renting in The Villages Dec. 1-15, 2013. I am a 1950 Monongah High (West Virginia) graduate. If there are any other Monongah High graduates living in The Villages, please contact me at

jo4wvu@neo.rr.com

and maybe we can arrange a Monongah High Alumni Reunion while Paula and I are here.

I retired from newspaper newsrooms after 43 years in 1996, so now I run the Monongah High Alumni newsletter via emails. I have put 19 MHS yearbooks into online albums, plus dozens of other Monongah-connected online albums.

If you want to be added to the newsletter receipient list, use the email address above.

I look forwarding to seeing Monongah High graduates, or even Marion Countians, during our two weeks at The Villages. Paula and I are testing the waters to see if we want to spend maybe 3 winter months there. Or more.

Thank you.

John Olesky, Monongah High Class of 1950, West Virginia University School of Journalism Class of 1954. I live in Tallmadge, Ohio, which is adjacent to Akron.

I also am a 1954 WVU School of Journalism graduate. I'd really like to talk to Monongah High, Marion County or WVU graduates who live or rent in The Villages to get a better handle on whether Paula and I want to stay there for a longer period, such as January-March or longer.

I would appreciate any help.

I run the Monongah High Alumni newsletter via emails. A few hundred people with Monongah High connections get the newsletters daily when Paula and I are not traveling.

Thank you.
