PASSING OF A LANCE CLENARD

It is with great sadness that I report the passing of Lance G Clenard Sat. August 31,2008 I just received this e-mail from his brother Jeff Clenard.
"Lance was born at Queen of Angels Hospital in Los Angeles on 06-March-1950. He passed away on Saturday, 30-August-2008. He leaves his wife Cindy of 18 years, plus three step-children and one grandchild. Lance and his wife Cindy had just returned from a long walk with their baby grandson. He was relaxing in his easy chair talking to Cindy when he suddenly passed out and collapsed to the floor. He never regained consciousness. An autoposy was not performed as he left his body to an organization for donor parts. It appears, however, that he died either from a massive heart attack, or possibly from a blood clot that travelled to his lungs causing a heart attack. (He had complained of having leg cramps during the walk, and nausia and an upset stomach upon return from the walk.) Services were held on Saturday, 06-September-2008 and the church was overflowing. I do not have an exact headcount, but it appeared to be well over 500, possibly as high as 700. Lance's obituary was published in a suburban Chicago newpaper, but did not contain much in the way of biographical detail. I am in the process of writing a more complete version for publication here in Southern California. I have already been to your blog (nice job by the way) and thank you for posting the news about Lance. I will forward a more recent photo to you later in the week, as well as a little more biographical info. Unfortunately, I will not have access to the pictures until late Friday. I know that Lance had many dear friends from Burbank High School, and from the First Presbyterian Church in Burbank. Please feel free to pass along my email address and cell phone number to anyone who might have an interest in contacting me. Also, the family is trying to collect from friends and family any written comments, anecdotes, or stories about Lance's life. Photographs would be appreciated as well. We would appreciate it if you would be so kind as to pass this word along to anyone who has a story to tell. Remarks can be emailed it to me or sent via traditional postal service to my PO Box at 31915 Rancho California Road, Suite 200-252, Temecula, CA 92591. Lance was very special to a lot of people, and will be missed by all. He never lost his faith in Christ and gave unto others even after death. Thank you again."

GAS PRICES GOT YOU DOWN?

TIRED OF SKYROCKETING GAS PRICES? LETS LOOK BACK TO THE "GOOD OLE DAYS". IF YOU LOOK REAL CLOSELY, THE GAS STATION IN THE BACKGROUND IS THE MOBIL STATION AT GLENOAKS AND VERDUGO. ITS PRICE WAS 27.9 (THAT'S 27.9 CENTS PER GALLON )FOR REGULAR. THE GAS STATION IS STILL THERE, BUT THAT PRICE IS LONG GONE. IMAGINE, I COULD THEN FILL MY TANK FOR THE PRICE OF ONE GALLON TODAY. IN THOSE DAYS, IF YOU BOUGHT AT LEAST 8 GALLONS (ABOUT 2 BUCKS WORTH) YOU ALSO GOT A FREE CAR WASH. THE CAR SHOWN IS LONG GONE TOO BUT I NOW HAVE ONE JUST LIKE IT. BY THE WAY, PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE KID WITH ALL THAT HAIR. I STILL HAVE IT, IT'S JUST MOVED TO OTHER PLACES.

REUNION HUMOR

My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table. My wife asks, "Do you know her?" "Yes," I sighed, "she's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since." "My Gosh!" says my wife, "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?"

GREG SANDERS

HI everyone ! I was sad to read about my old friend Bill Tideback. Funny how I can remember exact conversations with him after all these eons. Anyway, I live on the island of Lanai where my wife Sharie and I are the mental health providers for the whole population of 3000 or so. We love it here even though we are very busy and isolated, hence I won't be at the reunion. I got a call from Jim Ranshaw out of the blue and that got me thinking about Burbank Hi and I found the webpage. So, aloha to everybody and feel free to email me anytime with news of the folks. I haven't been back to Burbank in decades so I'm sure lots have happened, unlike here. The arrival of our baby goat made the newspaper...with a photo! Love, Greg Sanders




Dr. Greg Sanders, Lanai High Behavioral Health Specialist serves as one of the drawing and painting mentors. He is currently teaching oil painting to four students meet him after school several days per week.
“We like Dr. Greg because he tells us jokes, but he never laughs at his own jokes,” said one of Sander’s mentees who didn’t want to give his name. “Oh and he’s also a good painter himself. Oh, and he’s always on time and is always there, no matter what. And he likes the pictures we paint.”
The newest mentor is Frank Walls, a graphic designer who moved with his family from Cleveland for his wife to teach math at the high school. Walls teachers drawing and design one day a week at the Lanai Public Library. He is trying to recruit high school students, but for now his mentees are middle school students.

If you would like to contact Greg, contact Jim Ranshaw.
