💙💛#BlazerLoveStories💛💙 Doyle “Pete” & Anita Griffin Yarbrough’s #BlazerLoveStory began in 1945 when they were just 7th graders—growing up on family farms in the Valley View community 🌾. From chopping cotton alongside classmates to building a lifetime of memories, their #BlazerLoveStory is still going strong today! ❤️ In 1950, they graduated from Valley View High School, where Anita was Vice President of her class and played basketball 🏀, while Pete left school at noon to work on the farm 🚜. In 1953, they tied the knot 💍, but shortly after, Pete was called to serve in the Army 🇺🇸 for two years. Their love for Valley View and their Blazer pride 💙💛 has carried on through generations! Their children, Ken Yarbrough (Class of 76) and Susie Yarbrough Parish (Class of 82), have passed down the tradition to their own children: 👶 Grandchildren: ✨ Kendall Yarbrough Gartman (Class of ‘01) ✨ Jay Yarbrough (Class of ’02) ✨ Cody Parish (Class of ’09) ✨ Cady Parish (Class of ’16) And now, the next generation is keeping the legacy alive! 💫 👶 Great-Grandchildren: ✨ Allison Shelby (Class of ’24) ✨ Hayden Gartman (Class of ’25) ✨ Drew Gartman (Class of ’25) ✨ Plus, Quinn, Kye, Major, Nora, Mia, Lane, & Stetson—future Blazer graduates!🎓💙 Four generations (and counting!) of #BlazerPride and a #BlazerLoveStory 💛💙
