Obituary

Coach John Covert Enshrined in OHS Hall of Fame

Coach  & his lovely wife Carol looked great !!

In his acceptance speech he suggested that OHS return to being the "Indians" being that the term Indian means building one stone upon another. Makes sense!!

Having 2 National Championships under his belt and more state championships than I have fingers, he shared that, "Good coaches have good athletes" !! We know that is pure modesty !!

 I know many of you were with us in spirit !!

Many blessings to you all !!

Mr. Udell

There is an Obit in the paper today for Clifford S. Udell who was a teacher at OHS for 29 years. I remember him well but never had him as a teacher. He passed away in his sleep on July 26th, 2009. Just wanted to pass it along. If you are interested in the details it's in the Journal News today.

Bob and Regina Globerman

I appreciate your taking the time to clue me in on your class's doings. I'd like the class to know I sincerely remember them as one of the most outstanding, with a record number of outstanding people in it.  I can't even stress enough how much I mean that.

The only two teachers I'm still in touch with are TRae Lyons and Earl Sipe.  They're both doing okay, but I don't think either is computer based.

Since David so kindly mentioned my book, I wanted to let you know that there are actually two: "BAGS OUT AT SEVEN: A  Tale of Too Many Cities" and "SAY UNCLE".   If anyone cares to get more information, you can go to the website Robert Globerman, where you can read excerpts from each.

Thank you so much for keeping me clued.

My best wishes to all of you -- and many, many thanks.


Sincerely,
Bob Globerman

One of the great and gifted teachers of our OHS careers, to be sure. I still have memories of the musical he wrote and directed for his Senior class in 1961. Ever the Renaissance Man, he's also authored a book: "Bags Out At Seven."
