L.B. is listed in our graduation program for 1965,  The program does not show that he graduated at mid term.  He may have taken a few classes just to graduate.  His obituary shows the class of 64.  His wife Tony worked for an optometrist downtown.  I haven't seen her for awhile.  She most likely retired. 

When Jame White noted the death and made me aware of his inclusion in our class, indeed he was listed in our program.

I knew L.B. and I never knew of him attending OHS. He grew up on South side and went to Ector as far as I knew. His cousins, Nelda and Melba Vowell graduated at Ector. As far as I know they all lived on South Muskingum near where it intersected Crane hwy until about the time we graduated.

L.B. is not shown in any Ector annual.  James White says that L.B. was in his activity class at OHS.  I remember L.B. at Odessa College.
