Alleman High School - Pioneer (Rock Island, IL)

Page 8 text:

The Alleman Class of 1967 will always hold a special place in my memory because I feel that I am an adopted member of the class. With graduation on June 2, 1967, I close my career at Alleman, grateful for the experience of eighteen years as principal of the finest Catholic high school in the State of Illinois. Like most graduates, my feelings are ambivalent. At one mo- ment l am exhilarated by the new life that opens out to meg at another, I am reluctant to tear myself away from the people and places that have been the very fabric of my life for almost two decades. W'ith affection and gratitude, I remember some of the great priests and sisters and laypeople, board members and teachers, parents and friends, professionals and non-professionals, living and dead who, by their loyalty, industry and encouragement, have made Alleman a vital, human and Christian reality in our community. With confidence in God who has so richly blessed me in the past, l look forward to playing a new and dynamic role in the renewal of Christ's Church in the Diocese of Peoria. To my many friends among the board, faculty, the staff, the students, the alumni, the parents and the whole Quad-City community, I extend my warmest greetings and sincerest thanks. -Reza john lf. O'Comz0r Administration Each person who has ever lived is like to no one else who has ever lived before him. Each member of the Class of 1967 a unique combination of talents. For this reason the work in this world God has in mind for you can be done in the same way by no one else but you. You stand at the close of a significant segment of your life. You learned to live independently, you learned how to con- trol yourselves unwatchedg you learned how to make decisions on your own. In a word, you matured. Having grown to maturity, you moved so much closer to that point where you could begin to offer to the world what is yours only to give. You stand at the beginning of an even more significant seg- ment of your life. You have received. Now you shall be asked to give. Something of what you learned academically. Some- thing from what your emerging personality and maturity can give. But even more, something that your faith that has deepened and taken root can give. The world needs the testimony of your living faith. It needs the witness of a heart on fire with love for God and love for men. Leaving Alleman, go forth with a conviction that you do not Walk alone. Recognize that this life has to be lived with God, who will give to you vision of life, breath and depth and meaning. You will only co-exist with Christianity - it will never touch you, unless you recognize in the bottom of your heart that you need your God and your unending faith in Him. We wish you success always. We pray for your happiness. But we beg God that the light of your life will so shine before all, that they will inevitably see God in the witness that your life will give. For this is the Christian that Alleman tries to form. -Rev. Robert C. Foster, C. S.V. 4
