Old Timer’s Grand Reunion

May 27, 2026 by Tammy Cheek

Laughter and stories of the past generated throughout the Family Life Center of Virtue Church, 725 Virtue Road, Saturday, May 2, when former Farragut High School students congregated for the annual Old Timer’s Grand Reunion. The reunion initially was for those who attended the original Farragut High School “on the hill” before 1976, but that has expanded to all Old-Timers, alums and friends.

Attendees included, from left, Roscoe England, Class of ‘63; Doug Horne, Class of ‘63; and Mona Smith, Class of ‘62.
