Holly, My Love, Yesterday, they laid you next to me on the delivery table and I looked in wonder at the immeasurable brilliance and intensity of your new- born eyes. ln just a blink of eternity, we've swum great oceans and climbed towering mountains to- gether. l helped you. You helped me. Through our struggles we found our own special rainbow. As you drift farther into your own world in days to come, always remember our rainbow, for though we may be apart, our rainbow will never fade, Love, Mom tShirley Darwinj Stephie: Our little 'iwar baby has grown into a beautiful young woman. We are very, very proud of you and all your accomplishments. You have a great head on your shoulders and a warm, caring heart. With a combo like that your life is sure to be a big success. We love you and we'II always be here for you. Congratulations! Love, Mom and Dad. Steph: Vou're the best sister ever and I agree with everything mom and dad said. I love you, Jenn. To the incredibly awesome Boise Spudz: Christo- Spaz-o-gonzo, the tall, lanky French-Canadian, the short Japanese runt, Jose, the Sophomore squad, Fred Furly and Budman, and even though they al- ready graduated, the jolly, round French-Canadian, and twiggy. Hey! We survived another year and be- lieve it or not we will soon graduate! Imagine that! how did they ever let us graduate there is no way we deserve it. Chris: You are a reject, gambling, rap- ping, Communist, hetero thomofil sexual, drug-deaI- ing, pimp spaz spaz spaz. It has been fun painting those stupid lead figures, and you should always remember that Russians are wimps and are doomed to lose all battles against their superior enemy the Germans. Working at Swansons has been real and its been fun, but it hasn't been real fun. It is too bad that we can't subtract our gambling Iosings from our tax- es, we would probably end up with negative taxes. Don't forget Yaki's It's JUST GOOD FOOD!! CAL: Even though we started out less-than-friends we have developed a really great relationship. Mr. FagIione's class was a real blast. tlf you want narly ' go see Call It saved you that you still aren't like you were back then fthe same for mei. Just remember that the Dwarfs are the true studs of the world and the worth- less wimps you call an army are pitiful in compari- son. To everyone else I will put what I want to sayin your Yearbook because the deadline is in about 30 seconds tshut up Juni APTP will live on forever! During the summer we TP every house in La Cres- centa! Look at all the things we have lived through: the killer attack bologna and hot dogs from the cons, the cons themselves, Caius' classy comments, and getting the entire Briggs Pigs station after us when we got into the battle over Angela's car. Oh weell there is so much to write and I have to finish right now! - See you at college tdisregard if I get accepted at a real collegei His royal awesomeness Steve Just think! No more students parents meetings teachers board games dances headaches Have a wonderful retirement. You deserve it. Dona and Charlie Gastaldo Sam -- Thanks for your support and encouragement during the incident of the dogs and the Iockers. Your high opinion of my character really meant a lot to me. Fred Dear Mr. Nicholson - Remember the difficult time we had finding a classroom for the individualized Education program. We've come a long way from the room over the auto shop - fumes and all. Best wishes on your retirement. I've enjoyed working with you. Sherry Taylor It has been great fun working with you. I respect you for your sense of humor, your conscientiousness, and your hard work. I hope you have a wonderful retirement. Carol Rounds Dear M. Nicholson, l'll always remember how you and Pat came to my wedding that hot summer day in 1971, and how you watched my family grow to include 3 children. You're the best principal I've ever worked under. l'lI miss you. Toni Leinenweber There are people who do a good job, there are people who do a great job, and there are those that do such a superior job that they make it look simple. I'm sure all would agree that Sam Nicholson falls into this last category. He makes things run so smoothly that some- times it is easy to for- get what a difficult job it is to run a high school like CV. We take it for granted that our problems will be taken seriously and steps taken promptly to solve them. We know that the door is always open for us to talk to him. We just as- sume that programs and activities will be well-organized and su- pervised. What he does as an administrator is not only a skill but also an art, and Sam Nichol- son is the master artist in this area. Thank you so much for such an outstanding job. You will be greatly missed.

. ... ..., , 1 A .y. 1.35, I -..t if- hanks for the memories. Here, advising junior Sean Lewis and sophomore Kathi Chaplar, Principal Sam Nicholson displays his habit of always willing to help. After leading C. V. for 8 years, Mr. Nicholson decided to retire, leaving behind many admirers and long-time friends. So What's In A Word Anyway? I had some fun the other day . . . I looked up the word RETIRE . . . Webster's NEW COLLEGIATE DICTIO- NARY written of course for those young-whippersnap pers defines it as fol- lows: 1: to withdraw from action lsounds like the enemy has won and you're retreat- ingl 2. to withdraw from circulation ll guess this means a fate similar to the Edsell- 3: to go to bed QNO COMMENTJ and final- ly 4: to put out lBat- ter Llpl. Somehow I don't think that Merriam- Webster ever knew Crescenta Valley's Sam Nicholson. Sever- al entries down from RETIRE is the word RETOOL . . . Defini- tions: to re equip with new tools, to make sharper or better, to get ready for a new job So what's in a word anyway? Sam Nicholson is not retiring, he's just RETOOLING for the next stretch on this road called Life. gm Mr. Nicholson has been supportive of the entire educational process here at C.V. He attends every function there is. I don't blame him for retiring: he probably wants a life of his own. De Ann Morris Sam - Thanks for the great support you have given to me in my teaching and coaching. You are one of a kind and will be long remembered. Good luck to you on your retirement. Mr. Keith Gilliland It's a rare privilege to work for such a fair administrator. His sense of humor has helped in many situations. Annette Hooper Your continual pursuit of excellence is education has been highly appreciated. Your untiring and faithful support of student activities has been a real boost to the morale of our student body. Your patience with understanding and kindness to the faculty has been more than we could ask. May God grant you a life ahead filled with joy and happiness. Ron Klint My four years at C.V. are few indeed compared to those of most of my colleagues, but my appreciation of your support and encouragement and leadership is no less genuine or heartful. l'm happy for you, but you will be sorely missed. Gloria Staudenmeir I appreciate your support of my program and want you to know that your insight has been a major contribution to its' success. Jack Lambert Once upon a time the hills of Crescenta Valley and Tujunga had a phantom runner. He could be seen running in the wind, the rain and all types of weather. Little did I know that the phantom runner would turn out to be the very visable person running CVHS. My boss and principal Mr. Sam Nicholson. Vickie Bouldin After graduating from college, I began working at C.V. as an instructional Aide in Special Education. Mr. Nicholson was the first principal I had ever worked for and from the first day at school, he made me feel very much appreciated and went out of his way to help. He definitely had an effect on my decision to become a teacher. G. Davis Sam, Thank you for all your support - through the joy - through the tears. You have done a great job. Good luck and best wishes for a truly happy retirement. Paulette Mr. Nicholson, As a coach I deeply appreciate your support of athletics at CVHS. It makes our job easier and more worthwhile. Thanks. Dan DeMonbrun Sam: Thanks for making C.V. such a great place for students and faculty. We'll miss you. Norm Heldwein Tribute 8
