Happy 105th Birthday to AUHS Class of 1932 graduate Elmer Thill! He celebrated his 105th on April 19, 2019.
Thill is truly a treasured “Vintage Colonist.” Still true to his school, he continues to participate in AHSAA mixers, Alumni Breakfasts and the annual City of Anaheim Halloween Parades.
In fact, Elmer hasn’t missed a Halloween Parade since 1924, and remembers watching the procession from a second story window of his parents’ Central Hotel. He also marched in the parade playing the clarinet with the Anaheim Union High School Band.
Elmer still lives in the house he built more than 60 years ago on Citron Street, just a short distance from Anaheim High.
The AHS Alumni Associations wishes them many happy birthday wishes!
