Comment on Class of 1958 tale of repainting The Rock by Doug Collyer

Thanks Eleanor for the correct spelling of Russ Alstaetter’s name. Russ was really a great guy and did about everything for the school and especially for us kids. He drove buses to special school events and his regular bus route was the bus that went out Cavanaugh Lake Rd to Crooked Lake then around Cavanaugh Lake and then back into town. Russ knew all the kids on his route and if he realized that some of us were late in getting out to the bus stop, he would blow the bus horn and wait and wait till the last minute so we could get on the bus and make it to school. Russ cared about kids — it wasn’t just about a job. He was “good people.”

OMG–Albion College has a rock–and when the college decided that “it was time to lose the rock” the students got together and bricked it in place–it is still there. Someone tarred and feathered it once too–and who knows what else is under all that paint!!

nice article but you mispelled Russ (the janitors) last name, should be Alstaetter. From a 1953 classmate, don’t think that we painted the rock.

I remember the “58″ and the “superintendent’s meeting.” I agree, the painting by the Class of 58 was CLASSIC. I actually remember it when the Class of 61 paints the rock for a reunion.
Thanks for the memories.

Comment on Strawberries are here … try them in a salsa by Crystal Hayduk

Tasted it at the market yesterday (along with the cinnamon chips) and it was very good. If you don’t care for orange marmalade (I don’t), don’t let it keep you from trying it. You can’t even taste the orange.
