Sam Lindeman, The Wichita Lunch Bunch Invites YOU!

Sam Lindeman, 1960

Below, Sam Lindeman describes The Lunch Bunch. The photos belong to 1960 versions of recent attendees at the 1960 Lunch Bunch.

We try to meet for lunch monthly, usually the last Wednesday of the month, at different restaurants around the Wichita area.  We invite all our 1960 classmates to join us.  The meals are a great time to tell about our exciting lives and possibly find some new eating establishments. (Right, Marti Dunlap Bogle)

Since I started attending we have not been to the same place twice. That is what makes it interesting. We have tried everything from Mexican, pizza, hamburgers, full restaurants and next month I believe we are going to Hoof & Horn, a steak house. (Left, Mary (Mert) Lancaster Curtis)

The topics we discuss are wide ranging and include health, family, travel, work experience, other classmates, and about any other topic you could dream up. Most of the time several discussions are going on at the same time as is normal when there are more than three or four people. (Right, Gerald “Jake” Jacobs)

I personally would like to see this group grow.  Covid really affected the group, which is about half the size it was before Covid. We have found it hard to get the word out and appreciate help in spreading the word. (Left, Pearline Blackmon Smith)

If you,  Dear Reader, would like to attend, send a note to Fred, Diane, or Marilyn (contact info below) and they will put us in touch. (Right, Dick Caspari and Jim Banks)

Also attending The Lunch Bunch recently was Merle Lewis. No photo available, but Merle and the others are the real things, still with us and having lunch in Wichita once a month.

Editor’s note:  If you would like to join this group lunch, drop Marilyn (mbellert@niu.edu), Diane (ddzinn@aol.com) or Fred (ftelder@wisc.edu) an email and we will pass your name to the group.  The Lunch Bunch communicates via text, so make sure we have your up-to-date cell phone number.  You can also communicate via this website.  And, we would appreciate photos and information on your favorite discussion topics.  Who knows, one of us might join you!
