I think we have only been back once or twice in the past 10 years - Graduated H.S. there in 1958. Good to see it recovering, since it had nowhere to go but up when we left the area. We live in an even smaller town now!
Great Video! I went to Hibberd when it was an elementary school and then to C R Richardson when it was built to replace the old Hibberd school. I still cant believe that they would let us walk down to the Dairy Queen for lunch. I would never let my kids do that.
I loved this! I lived on SW 8th street and on Old US 27. My dad taught accounting at I.U. on the Earlham Campus. I went to Boston from 64-68 then we moved to Central Michigan. Thanks for the memories Richmond.
I just loved this! I lived on SW 8th street as a child and on Old US 27, went to Boston and loved the Richmond area. My dad taught accounting at I.U. on the Earlham campus. We moved to Central Michigan in 1968. So many great memories flash as you watch this video. Thanks for the memories Richmond.
Enjoyed seeing some sights from home. Also saw some familiar people. I went to Hibberd from kindergarden thru 9th grade. Haustetter (I sang at his wedding) and his son and mine are good friends.

Martha Isaacs Wayman, now of Ky, my 6th-9th grade years were spent in Richmond and were in so many ways the very finest years growing up. I went to Boston Junior High and we lived waaaaay out at the end of 23rd street(?) past the country club I recall. I am 53 now so that makes it about 67, 68 ish, ack! We have fine friends and fine neighbors and moving away broke my heart. I loved this video, and still enjoy
getting back to drive through and visit family friends. What a special town.
Have traveled and lived all around the world, but still proud to call Richmond my home town! Awesome job on the video, brought back memories. Looking forward to a visit home soon.
@janalaine Crazy stuff, just behind you, Lisa Lunsford.. remember science teacher Gary Hubbell? Use to go to his house and swim in his pool. I was trying to remember the little short guy that taught us history.. he looked like Mark Spitz. Also, remember running down the hill to go to the dairy queen and eat a coney, sour cream and onion chips and a cherry slush. Gosh... the memories.
This is great! I moved to AZ 26 years ago but get "home" to Richmond every summer to enjoy sweet corn, Clara's Pizza and of course family and friends. Thanks for the memories.

Just realized that in the picture of the Gra-Y team, the kid in the back row in the red tank is Richmond's new sheriff:-)
