So sad. I'm trying to recognize the names. Wasn't Guy Ogden a basketball player? His name rings a bell.
Rita,
Yes Guy played and was on the team the year Center Grove beat Richmond (I believe) in the state tournament.

Sad news. I remember a very vibrant Cheryl being right in the middle of most class activites in school. Very social, very pretty and very much the athlete - as I remember her. Thoughts and prayers extend to her family during this difficult time.
I've tried several times to download the photo of Cheryl that appeared in the Daily Journal... to no avail.
So let's try it this way... here's the link:

TwoDogs used the word "vibrant", and that's the way I remember Cheryl...
A ton of energy. I'm just sorry I didn't know her better.
