John Pat Leary
More power to tiny Marmarth! I came across the website while initiating a “Marmarth” search on the internet. I knew [of] at least three or four of the folks who had signed in on the alumni page. I attended the Marmarth school from 1941 through spring 1946; my uncle and aunt, Ray and Helen Hadley, are buried in the Marmarth Cemetery. I still get an
annual Christmas card from Beryl Childers. Best wishes to all the “Longhorns” from the ’40s! John Pat Leary, Volga, S.D.
