From Diana LaDue Graeber.......

Since Bill and I were lucky enough to get to attend our second World Series this month since we have been going to the Marlin games since they started their professional baseball team down here in 1993 thought I would share this picture to post with the graduates of 1948.
As you can see it was taken at one of the playoff games.  We have enjoyed baseball very much and find it to be a very exciting game.
Everything has been going well for us this year so far.
Have enjoyed looking at the pages you posted of the reunion this year.
Hope everything is going well for you.
Take Care.        Best Wishes      Diana Graeber
