MEMORIUM Mrs. Shirley Lamson died October 25, 1981 She had been a teacher in the Business Education Department since 1970. Illness forced Mrs. Lam- son to step down from teaching at the April, 1981, vacation, and although she fervently hoped to be able to return to Avon in Septem- ber, she was unable to do so. Mrs. Lamson did not seek popularity, but rather excellence. She was a lady of impeccable stan- dards in every way, and many a student and the occasional teacher unaccustomed to her stan- dards chafed at her demands. She steadfastly refused to lower her standards, however, and students soon had to learn the difference be- tween the hard right and the easy wrong. A wise woman, Mrs. Lamson knew that to polish a dia- mond, abrasive is sometimes necessary, and she was unafraid to apply this for the well-being of her students. She knew well that failure to learn high standards ultimately would be very cruel. She wanted her lessons to last a lifetime, and everyone who knew her has been touched by the excellence she exemplified. In the end she taught her greatest lesson of all. In the fact of overpowering illness, she taught us how to live life to its fullest, cheerfully, gracefully, with warmth, with humor, and with unflinching courage. MRS. SHIRLEY LAMSON
