Welcome To The Social/Interactive Website Of Messick High School (Memphis, TN) Class Of 1970! We're glad you "found" us and want to hear from you! Check out "Our Class Message Board" below for comments/feedback! Individually/collectively we're committed to EXCELLENCE in everything we do!

With that in mind let's get started! A key ingredient to the success of our website/events is our classmates ... YOU! We Want/Need You! On Saturday - July 11, 2015 - we had another very successful 45th at the Memphis Rock-N-Soul Museum! CLICK HERE for photos!

On Saturday - August 7, 2010 - we had a very successful 40-Year Reunion at the Lichterman Nature Center with "more than 150" attendees! Be sure to read the comments and/or check for different links for photographs. Please CLICK HERE to see reunion (and other) photographs at our "Facebook Page" -- Photographs provided by Janie Kirk Smith, Janice Tune and me! If possible we'd like for our "Facebook Page" to be the "single source" location for all Messick Class Of 1970 photographs!

If you're "new" to the website we need you to REGISTER ... it's FREE! Your FREE (website) registration comes with lots of "goodies" such as a Class Message Board, Class News, Family News Summary, Reviews, etc. In fact there's FREE promotion/exposure of your business (website) in our "Today's Featured Class Member Website" section!

You're either a CLASSMATE or GUEST. Unlike other "open social networks" our website is "devoted" to our CLASSMATES and/or GUESTS that have a relationship/connection to Messick '70. However, you can connect with "other" Messick High School classmates at the Messick High School Alumni Group website! We're linked there as well!

For CLASSMATES: You Are Considered "Missing" Unless/Until You Register! Check For Your Name In The Directory On This Website. All Names Are From The 1970 Yearbook And/Or Commencement Program! NOTE: Ladies - Look For/Or Add Your *1970* Last Name! Next - REGISTER And Update Your Profile! At A MINIMUM Please Provide A Valid E-Mail Address To Allow Receiving Updates/Newsletters From Me (Website Administrator)! However, the more information you provide, the better it is for us (Reunion Committee) to keep our directory update.

For GUESTS: REGISTER At Our Website (First Time) As A GUEST And Update Your Profile. At A MINIMUM Please Provide A Valid E- Mail Address To Allow Receiving Updates/Newsletters!

Again - we hope that our "Facebook Connection" - www.Facebook.Messick1970.com becomes our "Single Source" for any/all photographs related to Messick '70! We encourage you to "Become A Fan" where you'll be able to interact and see other photographs as well! Our Class - 1970 - is the "Penultimate Decade Class" of Messick High School! This is YOUR website and we need you/all to make it the best it can be!

Stay tuned for future developments!

Thanks!

Greg :)

Today's Featured Biography

 

 
Tyrus Legge, Jr.


After departing dear old Messick, I attended the University of Memphis and received a Bachelor of Science in Education. I then went on to teach mathematics at Lanier Jr. High which is in Whitehaven. After 14 years there, I transferred to Wooddale Jr. High, and then finished my teaching career at Wooddale High. I spent a couple of years teaching interim positions at Wooddale and at White Station. I taught all levels of math--7th grade on up to Geometry and Algebra II.

Throughout my life I have always been active with church music-at Christ the King Lutheran, Lord of Life Lutheran, and the last ten years I have been the Assistant Organist/Choirmaster at St. Mary's Episcopal Cathedral in downtown Memphis. Four years ago I began my newest career as an Administrative Assistant AKA Director of Communications. I produce all the newsletters, posters, bulletin announcements, and service liturgies. It's like running a mini FedExOffice!!!!!!!!

I guess gardening is one of my hobbies, but I keep trying to find ways to simplify all the maintenance. My passion is running and biking. I finally put the St Jude Marathon under my belt in December of 2009, but I will be sticking to the half-marathon this year!

My partner is Gene Hayden, who is in interior design at Samuel's Interiors. We have a chocolate toy poodle, CoCo. We are both active at the Cathedral where he serves as an acolyte and lay eucharistic minister.

My mother at age 92 is hale and healthy, still maintaining her home. She lives around the corner from us-in other words, she moved out of the "Messick district".

My second passion is ANY beach along the 30A Highway between Destin and Panama City. We go in October when the crowd is down and the weather is absolutely beautiful.

I am writing this post-reunion. The 40th was just great. I think we were thrilled to be alive and kicking. I was looking forward to seeing a lot of my Campus School chums like Mary Tatom, Sherry Novak, Clint Powell, Renee Richardson (whose mother I taught with), and others.
