Forest Agency Insurance - Our Newsletter Sponsor

THANK YOU for your donation! Our Winter 2010 issue of the AlumNews was recently mailed to our donors and members. Printing and mailing costs were underwritten with a generous donation from The FOREST AGENCY INSURANCE of Oak Park who sponsored the newsletter in MEMORY of BILL BROWNE (1922 - 2010). Bill founded the Forest Agency in Oak Park in 1957. It is now owned by his son DAN BROWNE, OPRFHS '74.

The Browne family has deep roots in the Oak Park community. Bill's wife Mary(Kirsch) Browne was a member of the OPRFHS class of '40. In addition to their son Dan, other graduates include Bill & Mary's daughters Meredith, Carolyn, Nancy, classes of '69, '70, '77, and grandsons Stephen and Michael, 2007 and 2009. That's quite a Huskie heritage!

Forest Agency Insurance Co. of Oak Park offers a full range of Auto, Home/Condo and Rental, Umbrella, Life, Health, Long Term Care, and Disability insurance. For a positive shopping experience and an educated, experienced staff stop by the office at 1111 Chicago Ave, Oak Park. You can reach them at (708) 383-9000 or visit their website at: www.forestagency.com

 

Thank you to the Classes of '69, '74, 79 & '84

A number of classes held reunion celebrations over Homecoming weekend and at other times this fall. Several of these classes made donations of reunion proceeds to our Summer Enrichment Grant program. We sincerely appreciate the support of everyone who contributed, particularly those of you in the classes of 1969, 1974, 1979 and 1984. We'd like to say a BIG THANK YOU to the members of the reunion planning committee for all their efforts and their enthusiasm in supporting current OPRFHS students!

We are grateful for this support. We are also grateful to members of the local business community who support us in so many ways, including donations to underwrite and sponsor the printing and mailing of the AlumNews.


We have had wonderful support from members of the local business community, as well as donations in honor of a classmate or faculty member. Please consider a donation to sponsor an upcoming issue of the AlumNews or make a general donation to support our work on behalf of current and former students.

For information on newsletter sponsorships or other general information, please call (708)434-3281 or e-mail alumniassociation@oprfhs.org

Thank You to everyone who shopped and supported our WHOLE FOODS SHOPPING DAY on Veterans Day at the River Forest store.

We received a generous donation from WHOLE FOODS for 5% of the day's receipts. We are grateful for this important support for all our programs including newsletters, websites, and especially to support our SUMMER ENRICHMENT GRANTS of financial assistance to help current OPRF students participate in exciting academic related summer programs.
