REUNION
TED MILLS AND his classmates from Soddy-Daisy High School’s class of 1940 get together at least once each year to talk about days of yesteryear. The remaining seven members of the class recently met at Karl’s Restaurant in Chattanooga to celebrate their 72nd reunion.
It’s an event that Mills said he looks forward to every year.
“Armed with walking sticks and assisted living equipment, the faithful few kept the reunion streak alive,” said Mills, who, for the first time in his nearly 90 years, is walking with the aid of a walker, he said.
“In spite of being slow of gait, the attitude of the attendees was sprightly,” said Mills, class president.
Mills said he reminded his classmates of what was going on locally at the time of their graduation.
