About me:	My mom and her two sisters attended OLA. My mom graduated in 1958. My two aunts were at OLA on 12-1-58. One of them was in the fire (Room 211, I believe). She survived but was hospitalized for several weeks. She was in 8th grade, part of the class of 1959. Many of her classmates died. My mom and aunts lost several friends that day. They and my grandparents moved away from the neighborhood in 1960 to the northwest side.
