The Anaheim High School Alumni Association is proud to celebrate the following Colonists whose classmates and friends have made generous donations in their memory:

Faye Kern Schulz

She later became the drama coach and filled that role for many years. She co-wrote the school’s first musical comedy, HEIGH-HO, presented in 1928. Her co-writer was Charles Walter, who later became a Hollywood director and choreographer most noted for his work in MGM musicals and comedies. Mrs. Schulz retired in 1963 after teaching at Anaheim High School for 41 years. She is remembered by Barbara Mahaffie as “My teacher, my friend.”

Elizabeth Dickerson

Elizabeth Dickerson entered the world of academia after graduating from Anaheim Union High School. She achieved the position of principal of Cypress Elementary School and later became the superintendent of the Cypress School District. She is remembered by Barbara Mahaffie as “a distinguished educator, compassionate woman and my friend.”

George Bragg
Class of 1959

George Bragg is remembered by his wife Marilyn Bragg. He is also eulogized by his classmate Gary Shepard who remembers George, his best friend, as “the most thoughtful and caring friend you could possibly hope for. He lived life bravely, faithfully, correctly, and as cheerfully as he could.”

Larry Taylor
Class of 1964

Larry Taylor was actively involved in the AHS drama program and Mozart Choir. After leaving Anaheim, he became a successful stage actor in New York. His classmates remember his grand entrance at their 25th reunion in 1989. Always a showman, Larry arrived in a limo, dressed in a tuxedo with his "date," Mrs. Thompson, his former drama teacher. Larry was very appreciative of her and he thanked her for the guidance that led to his acting career. Larry is remembered by his 1964 classmate Candice (Hintenberger) Linn.
