Oh my that is such a wonderful happening! I know I reconnected with an old elementary/hs friend about 5 years ago and we still make sure to have lunch together twice a year. I am happy for you I hope you get a chance to meet with them someday.

How cool is that! What a wonderful thing to have happen! Very happy that you and your friends can re-connect.

It's great that your friends were so determined to find you... and even better ... the fact that they DID find you.
I'm 66. Originally from Indiana ... Married when I was 20 ... moved around the US with my "then husband" ... was divorced ("dumped") at 41 in Louisiana. Then ... about 10 years ago moved back "home." Since then 6 of us "girls" from high school have "reunited" and it has been such a blessing. We try to get together at least once a month ... and there are ALWAYS many laughs. Four of us have known each other since elementary school ... so there are many memories ... but mostly we've decided that we are getting soooooo old ... our memories are getting fuzzy ... so we just make up stuff ... and laugh. I can't tell you what an "upper" it was to meet for breakfast on a Saturday morning while I was going through treatment. The laughs and togetherness was some of the best medicine I could have gotten.
Enjoy your reunion with your friends ... even if it is by email or phone ...
hugs.

Thank you all for sharing .. I admit that I have 2 girlfriends from when I was about 16 years of age .. we have stayed connected via the phone, letters or internet for 25 years .. 1 left California to find herself and settled in Russia, then Australia .. the other remained closed to Mom.
My friend in Australia and I speak every week on the phone for hours, and have for years! Friends make all the difference in our lives - during the good, bad and ugly times.
Strength and Courage,

Oh, Georgia--I love that!mgm42 said:Terrific...
It's terrific. We sometimes forget how great our high school friends were. Hope that surprise made your week. Hugs, Marilynn
Isn't it wonderful to re-connect with old friends. So nice to catch up too--to see who's been doing what for the past years. Glad you had this good thing happen and I hope you all stay in touch now.

It's great to connect with friends we grew up with.

ladyg, sometimes those "old" friends really are the best friends, glad they found you. It makes me want to search for a few that I haven't heard from in a very long time.
tgf - so you're the one they wrote the song for! "Back Home Again in Indiana".

Awesome!
Am so happy for you, Georgia! Had a similar experience last year, with my best friend ever from high school. She had moved out of state, very far away, decades ago. We lost touch...
Last May - she was here (unusual & doesn't happen often, at all), for just a long weekend, family affair. We met, had lunch, and both wished we had more time together! The years melted away, and we were right back where we began. Have remained in close contact since.
BELIEVE IT! :-)
Kind regards, Susan0 -
Georgia... how wonderful!!!!
Georgia... how wonderful!!!! That must be so exciting to get back in touch after so many years... I have always taught my children a song (from "we sing sillyville") ... Make new friends but keep the old one is silver and the others gold)... how true true true!
