The newly remodeled Garfield High School’s grand opening was on the weekend of Sept. 26. Close to 90 people were in attendance. The program started with a dedication of the Quincy Jones Performance Center and ended with the Garfield Jazz Ensemble playing “Stockholm Sweetnin” directed by Quincy Jones himself.
On Sunday, Sept. 28, Jones joined his 1950 Garfield classmates for a reunion brunch at O’Asian Restaurant where he told classmates how much he loved Garfield saying, “we had it all — all races” and “we all got along.” ♦
