Iohn Senecal 7930-7980 T he Eagle Mountain community suffered a very real shock, a strong sense of loss, and a painful setback with the death of Jack Senecal. Eagle Mountian High School princi- pal for four years, Jack Senecal represented the school and its young people to the best of his ability. He was sincere and earnest in his efforts to be as fair as possible with stu- dents, and he cared a great deal about their programs and welfare. He was admired and respected by all those who knew and worked with him. He was the most honest and intelligent person I have ever had the privilege of knowing. I was proud to be his friend. He was sincere and earnest in his effort to make E.M. a welcome part of the Arrowhead League. These comments about Mr. Jack Senecal were made by people who wokred for and with him. His dedi- cated administration helped greatly to make the 1980-81 year a success both academically and extracurricularly for the students of E.M.H.S. A John Senecal, Principal. L Students, faculty, and community honored John Senecal at a December 19th Memorial Service. C.M Sparkman and Randy Shum- way, along with local dignitaries and clergy, eloquently expressed their thoughts. 5 Rand Shumway, Athletic Director. 104 5 5 .,.. . . Si Ll 'e-e . : z .
