And on the news this morning they said it could be something went haywire in Ohio! Who knows?
I know I have not posted on her ein a very long time....I hope you all will welcome me though.
I am AlecSandra (otherwise known as Sande), grew up in Toledo OH area, left the JWs in 1979.
hey there, fellow xjws!
i am looking for anyone who is from the toledo, oh or monroe, mi area or anyone who camped in our yard during a convention around 1968. .
i grew up in monroe county, mi and moved to holland, oh as a teen, but know many from both places.
Yes, I know Mike, too, but not as well as I knew Dale and Dave. Is your dad still a JW?
He might remember me as Sande Barrett, of the "Barretts who had the pool in Temperance." I think that's how our whole family is remembered. Sad, huh?
If I remember right, my niece (she is my age) Sue Korecki, used to have a mad crush on your dad. LOL
Small world, eh?

Hey there, fellow XJWs!
I am looking for anyone who is from the Toledo, OH or Monroe, MI area or anyone who camped in our yard during a convention around 1968.
I grew up in Monroe County, MI and moved to Holland, OH as a teen, but know many from both places. In Toledo, went to Jackson, Dorr St and Oak Openings Congregations. In Monroe, went to Monroe, before it became two congregations. I left the organization in 1979, at age 21 (you can figure out how old I am ...LOL).
In particular I am looking for the Jay family (Tom & Helen are the parents)... esp Kathy, Steve, Wade and Jenny.
I am also looking for Dave and Dale Thoman (Dale & Elaine parents) and Greg Ferguson (from Toledo, mom is Ann).
However, if you know me or even if you don't, feel free to write to me. I grew up as Sande Barrett, daughter of Leroy & Bertha. When we lived in MI we had an inground pool that everyone swam in, and one year we even had a campground on our property that we operated for a convention. Perhaps you stayed there?
I look forward to hearing from more XJWS!!!

hi everyone, i was born and raised in toledo ohio, jackman congregation and also elmore congregation, and also lived in palatine congregation area in illinois, as well as attended the burbank congregation in burbank il.
anyone from that area????
do you know the thoman name????
Hello fellow Buckeye!
I saw the post and the name Thoman and just about fell off my chair. I have been looking for and wondering what happened to Dave and Dale Thoman. Do you know them? They also have a brother Doug. Their parents are Dale and Elaine Thoman. My parents are who stood up for them when they were married....Leroy and Bertha Barrett. We went to Jackman, then to Dorr St, then Oak Openings, all in the Toledo area. I used to be Sande, now go by AlecSandra. I have been thinking a lot about my childhood friends and those who I thought I would live forever with.
If you know Dave or Dale (and they are not JWs now), please let them know I am asking about them....esp Dave, since I always liked him.

Well, I am not from Jackson, but grew up in the Monroe area, before moving to Ohio, but possibly attended assemblies with you?
I left the JWs in 1979, went back briefly during the Desert Storm war (yep, was scared).
If you want to write, feel free.
