| 02/28/2010 | I read through all of the names listed here and I was amazed at how many of the listed HHS students and staff whom I remember so vividly. It was a wonderful time in my life and the memories of my three years as a math and science teacher in Hemingford are indeed pleasant ones. Thank you for your fine work in providing this site --John E. Miller | John E. Miller j3miller@cox.net Lemon Grove, CA Retired |
