Photo # 1, unknown back to camera, Beth Brownlee, Carolyn Bertie, Lynn Culler.
Consensus from several RJR grads.
That’s my back/side.
Loretta Snyder
Photo 1 has been identified. Beth Brownlee, Carolyn Bertie, Lynn Culler, and maybe Rosalind Meacham.
Photo #2 Middle boy is Bill Coram.
In photo #3 the kid on the far right holding the bird is Zach Smithdeall. Not sure about other 2
U are correct, Lynne. That is Zack Smithdeal…
In photo 2, that is Steve Wallenhaupt at the Nature Science Center in Reynolda Village, probably in the late 1960s. He became Dr. Stephen Wallenhaupt. I believe he now lives in Charlotte and may work at Novant Health.
Jeff, Which of the three (from left to right) young men do you identify as Steve Wallenhaupt?
Molly, I checked my ‘65 RJR annual and believe the cheerleaders are left to right in picture 1 Rosalind Meschan, Beth Brownlee asst chief, Carolyn Bertie class of ‘66, and Lynn Culler, chief. I am not 100% sure on Rosalind and Lynn, maybe 96%.
Thanks, Margie. I feel pretty certain about everyone except the girl with her back or side to the camera. I looked at the RJR annual also and I’m leaning toward Loretta Snyder. I’m thinking the time might be spring or fall 1964. It looks like Lynn already has on the “chief” emblem on her top, so that would be fall 1964. Let me know if you have any more thoughts on the photo.
Yep, that’s me.
Probably spring of 1965 when cheerleaders for class of ’66 were selected.
Thank you, Loretta, for confirming your identity in this photo and for dating the image. I appreciate your help.
I am on left.
Loretta Snyder
Hi Molly, picture #3
Third from left is Pam Yow
Fourth from right is Robin Sears
Far right I believe is Paula Canada
The girl in the center, back row with glasses, looks like Glenda Motsinger
Several faces are familiar but I can’t come up with the names.
Thanks, Jamie. Do you have an idea of a date or the name of this group?
Photo #2…I don’t know the two guys on the left, but the one holding the hawk is Zack Smithdeal..was a taxidermist before his death a few years ago…if I am wrong, someone please speak up.
Girl on left is definitely Loretta Snyder Northrop. Talked to her on phone and she said the black onyx bracelet on arm shaking hand is hers and she still has it. She also sent me her senior cheerleading picture in 1965 annual where she is wearing same bracelet. Lynn Culler Smith also acknowledges that is her on far right with “R” on bib indicating chief cheerleader. Picture taken in Spring of 1965.
Thank you, Lucy, for contacting Loretta and Lynn, and getting their confirmation. You were so helpful in identifying this photo.
