DEAR FELLOW CLASSMATES, My last years at Roosevelt have been very good to me. I love the school very much, and when I look back on my old school days, maybe ten years from now, I will be proud to say that I graduated from Gary Roosevelt. Vaughn Patton To my class, the Class of 1970, I want to say, we've had togetherness, and we've had fun. I hope that we'll remember only the good times. So, to all ofmy classmates, the best. Joyce L. Ottman The 1970 Senior Class was good, as a whole. I personally feel it could have been better if the seniors had acted more mature. Best wishes to the Class of'7l, and please grow up soon . DeWayne Turner The Class of '70 is flooded with potential and dreams. Never be afraid to strive with your greatest efforts to fulfill your dreams. Success to all of you. JoAnn Lee, Salutatorian Well, this last year in school has caused me to wonder, because the world is open for me, and all I have to do now is to apply what I have learned to reach my goal in life. Darnell Powell I am proud to say that being a Rooseveltite has been one of the greatest experiences of my life. I will always be thankful to the school and its instructors for the mental and physical guidance they have given me these past four years. Temple-Jene Harris I am proud to have been a student of Roosevelt, and I will never forget my days here. May all of you remember me for I will never forget you. Marion Johnson This year at Roosevelt was one of full enjoyment for me. Although I have just been here a year. it was worth it. Good luck to all the rest of you. Alex J. Bernard I am glad I attended Roosevelt for I enjoyed my four years as a student. I wish much luck to all ofmy fellow senior classmates. Jesse Peeples, Jr. The year of 1970 was a good one in our school life. Good luck and best success. Elizabeth Anderson IO4
