in memoriam RUDOLPH CABRAL August 23, 1935 — March 22, 1952 In memory of one of our beloved classmates the Class of 1955 dedicates this page. Rudy Cabral passed away At only sixteen years. But he is with us every day In memories so dear. His hand we'll never touch again; His eyes we'll never see. We cannot alter in this life What was meant to be. He always had a smile. His enemies were few. He loved athletics and the out-of-doors; Good sportsmanship he knew. But the joys and pleasures of his life Were soon to fade away, For his Heavenly Father was to call him back On that sublime and tranquil day. March 22, 1952, Marked the dawn of his life anew. Although not with us these past few years. This humble tribute to him we pay. The memory of him will linger with us Especially on Graduation Day. 25
