Memorial Fundraiser for Hal Devore, GHS Educator
Greetings to all our fellow classmates. As many of you know, a beloved teacher from our days at GHS has passed, Hal Devore. Mr. Devores obituary: https://www.h-p-w.com/obituary/MrHal-Devore. We were lucky enough to have Mr. Devore and his wife attend our 50th Class Reunion dinner last Fall. Some of the reunion committee members discussed via email that we should consider doing something in remembrance for Hal Devore and his family. It was felt that something more permanent be offered to show the class of 1973s appreciation for his years of service and his indelible influence on many of us. We are currently exploring the possibility of having a tree planted in his honor along with a small plaque. Some of us are reaching out to the school district to ascertain if a tree can be planted on the GHS grounds. As of today – we have not received any word from the High School and are still working on this. We have started a GoFundMe site to assist in the cost of this endeavor. We feel that it is appropriate to use some of the GHS Class of 1973 Reunion funds that we still have to also aid in the cost of this memoriam. Mr. Devore's memorial service is on March 16, 11 AM so we want to have this idea wrapped up before then. Based on our ability to work successfully with the School District, all donations will go toward a tree planting and plaque. In the event of funds received that go beyond the cost of such an endeavor – we will donate the additional funds to Habitat for Humanity as suggested in Hal Devores Obituary. Thank you….
