Top Row- Mark Miller, Larry Sheppard, Les Newcombe, George Watson.
2nd Row- Dave McCluskey, Leo Young, Mike Hornbrook, Steve Gobuty.
3rd Row - Rick Clark, ?, Tim Tibbits, ?
4th Row - Bruce Davidson, ?, Carl Deroche, Harry Laidlaw.
5th Row - Mike Graham, Buzz Gomes, ?, Rick Hills.
Bottom Row - ?, Jim Britton, ?, Rob Douglas.

When was this?  I'm thinking 89 or 90?

Neil,

Hi Buzz

Wow 42 years, you must have loved it. Say hello to Dave, Mike, Larry, George, Don and Doug for me.
I'm doing great!! I'm paralized on the right side, arm and leg, and I lost my voice but I drive my SUV, it's fitted with a "left foot gas pedal and a steering knob". Norma is fine and she looks after me, house and two dogs. What a gal.......
