Deceased Classmates

As of 3/9/2023, 221 members of the Class of 1954 were reported to have passed away.  There could be more, as we have lost track of about 100 classmates. The Social Security Death Index (SSDI) is/was an on-line reference we used as a verification source for many of our findings. Not all deaths are reported to the SSDI, however. Our record is not perfect, and we hope we are not reporting any classmate's passing prior to the fact. If you have any additional information about a classmate, please let us know. And if we have made a mistake, please accept our apology, regrets and let us know how to fix it. Webmaster.
