T0 ALL PARENTS l'll lend you, for a little time, a child of Mine He said For you lo love the while he lives and moum for when he's dead. h A 0 A It may be siz or seven years, or twenty-two or three, But will you, 'til I call him back, take care of him forMe7 He'll bring his charms to gladden you, and should his stay be brief, You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief. I cannot promise he will slay, since all from earth return, But there are lessons taught down there I want this child lo learn. l've looked the wide world over in search for teachers true, And from the tnrongs that crowd life's lanes, lhave selected you. Now will you give him all your love, nor think the labor vain Nor hate me, uhen I come to coll to take him back again? lfancied that I heard them say, Dear Lord, Thy uill be done' For all the yoys thy child shall bring, the risk of grief u e'Il run.

DAVID RATHGEB -qu I myself can see a space that no one else can see. It ls the space where you should slt wlth the Class of '83. l see thls space, an empty one because you've gone away . . We dld alot of happy thlngs, but nothlngs left to say. There's always a reason for golng away that no one really knows. I guess It was just your tlme, just your tlme to go. We mlss you now more than ever to show we really cared. The thoughts and memorles are wlthln us, all the ones we shared. Because we love and mlss you as the days go by, thats why God has glven, has glven the rlght to cry. A Friend, Tlna Payne 47
