Miss Ketterer certainly made my life at CHS tolerable. She was a great lady.

Wow! great shots, as usual, I am now seeing people in a new light, I always thougth Ms Ketterer was cool, but never saw her like this. I guess it shows we all have human side to us. Thanks for doign this.
I looks like these guys are from Sikeston the big “S” but hard to tell. I was a jock but did not wrestle…But the person with blond hair does look like Bob Bishop. Nice spotting for Tim Pensel.
Nice work.

Margi,

Thanks for the tip. I pulled out my Dad’s 1931 Girardot and found that there were five name I recognized as still being on staff when I attended Central High School in the Class of 65.

You’ll have to wait until Tuesday to find out who they are.

We loved these pictures of Miss Ketterer. Who went to Central and DIDN’T have to interact with her at some point? She was working at Central when my mother was a student there. Mother was born in 1914 and said Miss Ketterer was very young when she went to work there, obviously.
