In Memorium Mrs. Maria H. Von Boross 1912-1974 The Florida Memorial College family was shocked and saddened by the news of the death of Mrs. Maria H. Von Boross who died on June 23, 1974. Mrs. Von Boross served as Circulation Librarian since 1968, when the college moved from St. Augustine to Mi- ami, until the time of her demise in 1974. Shaw ' s words may well sum up her philosophy: I want to be thoroughly used up when I die. Life is no brief candle to me. It is a kind of torch which I hold only for a moment and I wish to make it burn as brightly as possible before passing it on to future generations. Mrs. Von Boross lived a full life. She was held in the highest esteem by those who knew her, and her great service to Florida Memorial College will be missed. Her first concern always was the students of Florida Memorial College. The college fam- ily believes that her life will remain a legacy to th e college. Everyone loved and admired Mrs. Von Boross. Leroy Thompson Head Librarian
