As I have done before, and will continue to do, I went searching the Internet for an old and very dear friend (that I lost track of years ago) and lo and behold ANOTHER obituary! He was a 1955 Colerain grad but his remembrance is not shown on the roles herein and should be. I’m so sorry to say that Burt C. Albrecht passed away on August 16, 2019 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Rest in peace my old friend.

Perhaps it’s my age, or the love I have for old friends from my 1956 class, but as I search the Internet for friends that I enjoyed life with in high school, I keep finding obituaries. I already notified this site of the passing of Lena Corwin Magly and Don Shea (friends I found on the Internet) and today I discovered another obituary (not listed herein on the In Remembrance area) Jane Vaughn Hubrich a 1956 alumni, who passed away on February 25, 2022. I feel very blessed to have reached the age of 85 and still be in excellent health. My love and prayers go out to my friends who have gone on to their final reward! God bless their souls. (submitted by Lil Humphrey North – eddiesmom36@aol.com)
Bless you, Lilaine. It’s a very different world since you put on your graduation gown. I understand the sorrow that comes with your search for old friends. I too experience melancholy as my classmates pass. I am sooo happy you are still with us.Chris Williams (Class of ’73)
Thank you Chris Williams. Your response tells me that SOMEONE DOES READ THESE POSTS. I don’t think anyone from the class of 1956 ever reads or participates in the Colerain Message Board. God bless you for being a caring person! Live long and prosper!
I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Lil over the last few months. What a delightful person! I originally contacted her after reading a post she shared regarding the passing of a friend.
I’d been interested in interviewing an “old school” Colerain graduate to share with my Class of ’74 Gal Pals. My thought was to remind our group (as our 50th Reunion approaches) that many friendships and successes are modeled and upheld by those who came before.
To that end, I’m submitting the attached article with gratitude and admiration for Mrs. Lil Humphrey North.
Hope you enjoy!

Hello, alumni!
I am a ’74 graduate. I’m currently writing a “then and now” type of article for the Colerain Gal Pals, Class of ’74, as well as the 100th Year Anniversary Committee. It’s my hope to interview the earliest graduate I can find and a recent graduate. I’d like to get each of their perspectives on a number of topics about their high school years. I’d also like to include a photo.
My questions will be respectful and I will not submit without the individuals’ approval.
Any leads/volunteers/recommendations are most welcome!

My Mother, Ruth J. Listerman (Maiden Last Name….Herrmann) is
probably one of the OLDEST LIVING MEMBERS of Colerain Education.
She is now 94 years old. She remembers attending Colerain High School
with only twenty-seven members in her class. Unfortunately, many
Colerain High School young men quit school in order to join the
military to fight in Europe and/or Japan during World War II.
Please remember USA Veterans.
Thank You…Jim Listerman / Colerain High School Class Of 1969.

The graduating Class of 2024 from Colerain High School will be the 100th. As part of our Century Celebration we are trying to locate Colerain’s oldest living graduate. We think they would have graduated between the year’s 1941-49. This would make them about 91-100 year’s old.. If anyone knows of a relative or friend who graduated in those years and is still alive please contact Denny Hirsch 513-404-5679 or dennykathy3@yahoo.com

My uncle, Dale McCann, was a 1948 CHS graduate. He died on March 20, 2023, in Mason, OH, age 93. There’s a public memorial service on Saturday, May 6th, at the Stone Center at the Christian Village at Mason, 411 Western Row Rd. Visitation starts at 10:00 a.m., with the memorial service following at 11:00 a.m. If you knew Dale McCann, you’re welcome to attend and meet his children.
Uncle Dale was a sibling of my mom, Patricia McCann Wells, who also had graduated from Colerain HS. I know that Dale had attended reunions in the past, probably several years ago, so didn’t know if any of his classmates are still alive.

Colerain High School’s 100th Anniversary Celebration
Colerain High School will be celebrating its 100th anniversary during the 2023 – 2024 school year. Since its first class in 1925, more than 32,000 students have graduated from Colerain. The Class of 2024 will be the 100th graduating class.
To commemorate this milestone, a committee is being formed to plan events throughout the coming year that highlight the rich history of the school. From academics to performing arts to athletics, Colerain’s students have excelled and brought notoriety to the school and community over the years. Alumni have used their education in many ways as they entered the workforce, served in the military or continued their education in college. Regardless of the path chosen, the common thread for each graduate was the solid foundation and support provided by their dedicated teachers, counselors, coaches and administrators.
An organizational meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 28 at 6:00 p.m. at the high school for anyone who would like to participate in the planning of the Century Celebration. For additional information, please contact Denny Hirsch at dennykathy3@yahoo.com.

Every year, on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, people take the time to kick off the holiday season by giving back to their community. Giving Tuesday has now become a global movement. Everyone has something to give, and every dollar counts. The Colerain Boosters are excited to continue this tradition as its mission is to make Colerain High School, along with Colerain and White Oak Middle Schools, better places for the students and community. DOUBLE THE IMPACT OF YOUR GIFT! We are excited to have a matching gift that is in place for total donations received up to $5,000 between Tuesday, November 30 and December 15, 2022. If you give $50, it will have the impact of a $100 contribution! To make your online gift, click on the “Donate” button in the upper right-hand corner of this website. What’s the plan for donations received?
Our goal is to raise at least $15,000. All funds will be used for updates that will contribute to a positive atmosphere at CHS, specifically in the Cafeteria for all students to enjoy.
Thank you for your generosity and have a great holiday season!

The graduating Class of 2024 from Colerain High School will be the 100th. As part of our Century Celebration we are trying to locate Colerain’s oldest living graduate. We think they would have graduated between the year’s 1941-49. This would make them about 91-100 year’s old.. If anyone knows of a relative or friend who graduated in those years and is still alive please contact Denny Hirsch 513-404-5679 or dennykathy3@yahoo.com
I’m passing along the sad news that my sister, Jackie Wickemeier Durham (Class of ‘54), has passed. She died on June 7, 2023, after a cardiac arrest event. She was a hospital patient at the time recovering from hip replacement surgery.
So sorry, Ben. Our sincere condolences.

My uncle, Dale McCann, was a 1948 CHS graduate. He died on March 20, 2023, in Mason, OH, age 93. There’s a public memorial service on Saturday, May 6th, at the Stone Center at the Christian Village at Mason, 411 Western Row Rd. Visitation starts at 10:00 a.m., with the memorial service following at 11:00 a.m. If you knew Dale McCann, you’re welcome to attend and meet his children.
Uncle Dale was a sibling of my mom, Patricia McCann Wells, who also had graduated from Colerain HS. I know that Dale had attended reunions in the past, probably several years ago, so didn’t know if any of his classmates are still alive.
The class of ’58 is having a reunion on Thursday, September 14, 2023 celebrating our 65th anniversary. It will be at the Bier Haus from 1:00 to 4:00pm. Contact Norb Snow at 630-386-0030; or at nesnow@prodigy.net.

Colerain High School’s 100th Anniversary Celebration
Colerain High School will be celebrating its 100th anniversary during the 2023 – 2024 school year. Since its first class in 1925, more than 32,000 students have graduated from Colerain. The Class of 2024 will be the 100th graduating class.
To commemorate this milestone, a committee is being formed to plan events throughout the coming year that highlight the rich history of the school. From academics to performing arts to athletics, Colerain’s students have excelled and brought notoriety to the school and community over the years. Alumni have used their education in many ways as they entered the workforce, served in the military or continued their education in college. Regardless of the path chosen, the common thread for each graduate was the solid foundation and support provided by their dedicated teachers, counselors, coaches and administrators.
An organizational meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 28 at 6:00 p.m. at the high school for anyone who would like to participate in the planning of the Century Celebration. For additional information, please contact Denny Hirsch at dennykathy3@yahoo.com.

Boosters’ Day
of Giving
November 2022
Every year, on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, people take the time to kick off the holiday season by giving back to their community. Giving Tuesday has now become a global movement. Everyone has something to give, and every dollar counts. The Colerain Boosters are excited to continue this tradition as its mission is to make Colerain High School, along with Colerain and White Oak Middle Schools, better places for the students and community.
DOUBLE THE IMPACT OF YOUR GIFT! We are excited to have a matching gift that is in place for total donations received up to $5,000 between Tuesday, November 30 and December 15, 2022. If you give $50, it will have the impact of a $100 contribution! To make your online gift, click on the “Donate” button in the upper right-hand corner of this website.
What’s the plan for donations received?
Our goal is to raise at least $15,000. All funds will be used for updates that will contribute to a positive atmosphere at CHS, specifically in the Cafeteria for all students to enjoy.
Thank you for your generosity and have a great holiday season!

Hello,
I wanted to inform the Colerain High School alumni Association that my mother, Carla Meier (Class of 1964) passed away on May 2, 2022, after a short bout with terminal cancer. My mother moved to the Detroit, MI area in the early 1970’s and became very active in state politics in her later years. Carla is very much missed by family and friends alike. Please read her obituary here: https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/name/carla-meier-obituary?id=34638530
She always had fun memories and happy stories about her time at CHS.
Sincerely,
Leah Meray
