Dedication ii» A wave, a smile, and a friendly greeting — almost the life story of Dick Self, a 1954 graduate of Corunna High School. No matter the day or time, Dick brightened the lives of those he met by a cheerful salutation. Those who had the privilege of attending school with him can never forget the good sportsmanship he displayed on the gridiron, baseball diamond and cinder track; nor can they forget the help he gave them in their studies. On December 23, 1954, the people of Corunna lost Dick Self when he was unexpectedly taken from them through death in an automobile accident. The life and actions of Dick Self can truthfully be summed up in this simple word love, because he denied love and kindness to no one and extended the hand of friendship to everyone. With admiration and humility we dedicate this yearbook to Richard A. Self. 3
