Cave Spring High School Class of ’73

Updated January 23, 2023

The multi-class Cave Spring High School Reunion for the classes of ’72 through ’76 was held back in September 2019. That event led us to compile a list of those classmates from each of those classes who have left us.  I’ve added to it as you all have graciously sent me more names. As requested, here’s the Cave Spring HS Class of 1973 list of our deceased classmates with a few missing dates.  Updates and corrections are appreciated.
