Hey, I don’t know if you still check this email, but I really need help confirming the identity of someone on your “Class of 195█” list. Is ███ ████████ still alive? I’ve been looking for them for several years. If you have any info about what happened to them, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

What is your interest/connection to her and/or our class?

No direct connection. I used to live on a plot of land in Hempstead where a house had burned down 50 years prior. I obtained a Ouija board and started asking questions about the house, and I was given that specific name.
I had found this “Class of 195█” page years ago and I was young, so I figured the story checked out. But now I’m wondering if “███ ████████” was really the person I was talking to. I figured the best way to disprove the board is to simply ask if she’s still alive, or passed away in some other fashion.
It’s been about 14 years, it’s kind of just a loose end from my childhood that I’m trying to tie up. And yes I know it’s a very strange story, which is why I haven’t felt comfortable asking until now. I greatly appreciate any help you can give.
Thanks,
August

Check
https://www.███████.com/obituaries/██████-████████
(The link leads to the obituary of a man who died earlier that year.
She is mentioned here: “He is survived by his wife ███ ████████”. This confirms that she was indeed alive during our seances. The dates and locations all match, and her name is too specific and peculiar for there to be another.
This confirms the Ouija board was lying about its own identity. - August)

Oh wow… I knew it. No further confirmation needed. You just helped me wrap up one of the bigger mysteries of my life.
Thank you for not dismissing my story as simply crazy, I appreciate you. RIP to her husband too. I can only wonder what really happened with that Ouija board all those years ago…
