We had a great band in 69 - 71. Wally Reed was our director, and Gene Hale was our assistant. I played trombone in marching and jazz band. I met my husband, trumpeter Steve Payne, there.

Attended Kilgore 69-71, played trumpet and marched in 1 Macy's parade, and 3 Cotton Bowls. Spring concerts with Doc Severinsen and Urbie Green still hold wonderful memories. My wife, Wynema Miller Payne, was one of 2 female trombone players in the band at that time. We had our first date during a Cotton Bowl trip. The Kilgore Band will always be a treasure lifetime memory.

I was the other female trombone player in 69-71. It was a great time. I wouldn't trade those days for anything. We also went to Keene,TX for a concert. 
I didn't get to go to Macy's that year. The next year Tyler JC got the nod. So my NYC visit had to wait 35 yrs.

I have a facebook page with a picture there, but I just can't seem to get the picture over to this site. Any help would be appreciated. Glad you sent the card about the Alum Assoc. I also would like to know how to access this site from Facebook. I tried entering Ranger Band Alumni Association as you instructed and I could not get it to work. Thanks
I'm excited about this site...sorry no picture of me just yet...my boys will have to do for now. Hope to hear from some of my old friends from the '66-68 band days when Wally Read was our director and Jerry Hale assisted. We had some great times!
