Don Stockton (1953)
I started the first grade at SR with Jimmy in 1941 and, except for the two years I moved away, went to school with Jimmy until we graduated from CPHS in 1953. He was one of my best friends all through those years. I also ate many hamburgers at his dad's grill next to the Park Theater. Rest in peace Jimmy. You were one of the best!
