The Salem High School Class of 1944 held their 80th reunion in Oregon this past weekend, extending their previously held world record for longest-running class reunion in history. 

  • Their commencement was held June 1, 1944 – or five days before D-Day. All of the attendees are now over 95.

🥞 Pancakes for everyone... Six class members attended the event, held at their local Denny's (per usual). The restaurant even treated the seniors to lunch. "We just wanted to make them feel special," said restaurant manager Bobbi Avants. "After 80 years, they deserve it."
