RON BUSSLER Fri Jul 9 19:34:36 1999
My name is Ronnie (Ron) Bussler. I grew up on Arnco Mill Village in Coweta County between 1951-1965. I attended the old Arnco Mill Village School at the top of what was then called "C" Street during my 2-5th grade years. I was going to school there when the school was shut down at the conclusion of the 1954-55 school year. I loved this old school. Some of my fondest childhood memories are associated with its students and teachers. The school has been gone for many years. I seek photos of Arnco School from any time it was in existence. I shall gladly pay for such photos or copies of such photos. Photos of the school showing students or teachers would be even better. I currently live in Cave Spring, Georgia. My phone number is 1-706-777-8852. My address is: Ron Bussler, POB 422, Cave Springs, Ga. 30124. Feel free to contact me by whatever means if you have photos of old Arnco School.
