We are saddened to inform you that we learned recently of the death of one of our classmates Jolynne C. Strang, class of 1964.
Longtime Denver resident passed away December 9, 2016 at age 70. She was born an Army brat, graduated from High School in Paris, France, and was a graduate of University of Denver. She was a 50 year member of Gamma Phi Beta sorority at DU. Jolynne volunteered and served with the American Red Cross in Vietnam. She established the Vietnam Women's 'Circle of Sisters' and founded the 'American Civilian Women and the Vietnam Experience' archives at DU. She retired in 2015 as a Special Education Teacher for Denver Public Schools.

We were in a lot of classes together, but different radar screens. Quite the go-getter. I remember Mr. Lee trying to look after her. She was a volunteer on the 1975 baby-lift out of VN, and not on the C5 that crashed. She surely found a productive life for herself. Only recently checked-in with PAHS ...

That fiery red hair and big, big heart! Pep Club would not have been the success it was without her energy and true Pirate spirit. I seem to recall she worked on a cancer-related science experiment with mice when her mother was diagnosed with cancer. Reading her profile, I discovered we were both volunteers for the orphan airlift from VietNam. My husband was stationed at Fort Benning GA and I remember the children under my care were so silent and stunned by their new location. To know Jolynnne was a part of the start of their new American life is remarkable but not surprising.
