Archbishop Ryan High School for Boys - Arrow Yearbook (Philadelphia, PA)

Page 140 text:

All communities change, sometimes they seem to end but as long as they are remembered the spirit, the life, the goals, the beliefs and the philosophy live on. Ryan for us will really only be our four years here. But Ryan will live on. New people will come and contribute part of themselves making the community theirs. Freshman become seniors: that is inevitable. You can only belong to a community for the time you are supposed to. To wish there was more time is foolish. Life goes on; it changes. We all belong to this larger flow carrying us to our destinies. Now we must examine what we have obtained from Ryan. To seniors this is a time of Supreme reflection. To them we wish luck. To all others we leave the community in your hands. Carry it on. Strive to realize your goals and when it is finally your turn to leave we hope you will have attained the full of what Ryan has to give. 136
