In tJMemory ... of Richard Keith Smurr. None of us has forgotten Dick, nor shall we. That is why we, his classmates of the class of 19 59, wish to commemorate him in our annual. We all loved him; and in spite of his sudden departure, we know Dick ' s life was a full and a happy one. Everyone who knew Dick was his friend. His carefree spirit and his heart that was big enough always to make room for one more made him one of the most admired members of our class. Whenever we think of Dick, we will always remember the widest and the happiest grin in the world, and we will never forget those freckles and that red hair. All these characteristics made Dick the whole and wonderful person that was our friend. We hope this paragraph will always keep the memory of a friendly and loyal person fresh in the mind of all of us who loved him. We will always recall and cherish the moments we spent with our friend, Richard Keith Smurr. Page s
