John J. Spillane was my maternal granfather.  I was doing a search on his father, actually, and found my grandfather’s name on a list of missing Waseca alums.  The reason the attempt to contact him came back to you is because my grandparents weren’t living at the listed address at the time of your letter.  My grandfather died a number of years ago, in February of 2002.  It’s a shame because he would have loved coming to the reunion.  Those were good times in his life.
-Emily Westphal

If you were a foreign exchange student in a Waseca school, contact me to make sure we have your correct contact information. And, if you were a host family or friend of a foreign exchange student and you have contact information for a foreign exchange student, contact me to make sure we have current contact information for the student in our lists.

Here’s a list of the missing exchange students I’m aware of:

1965 – Jaime Mac-Veigh (Spain)
1966 – Dominique Richard (France)
1970 – Randy Scarbrough, Elizabeth Zorraquin
1971 – Minh Quang Le

  • Collect phone numbers and email addresses when you collect your contact information. (Here’s a MS Excel form you’re welcome to use for your class list. MS Excel format document for collecting contact information on classmates)
  • If you’re just getting started and don’t have a current list of classmates, get a copy of the list from your last reunion or contact the Waseca All-School Reunion Committee for their 1998 list of classmates.
  • Contact known family and friends. Ask others if they know of family or friends who may remain in contact.
  • Do a Google search for the classmate at their last known address, e.g., firstname + lastname + city + state abbreviation. If unsuccessful, search on the last name and consider contacting people on the list to see if they have contact information for the person.
  • Use TheUltimates to search.
  • Post a list of your missing classmates on this blog and on People Search at WasecaAlums.com.
  • As you go along, distribute your list of classmates to the classmates who have email so they can keep in contact and perhaps get motivated to help locate still missing classmates.

When you’re done, distribute your list of classmates to all classmates so they can keep in contact.

I’m certain the Waseca 2008 All-School Reunion Committee will also appreciate receiving a copy of your list of classmates as they prepare for the 2008 All-School Reunion.
