IN MEMORIAM . .. When faculty members and students first heard that Mr. Blue had passed away, their immediate reaction was unbelief. Shock and a feeling of empti- ness followed. Distinct, vivid images flashed through one's mind. Mr. Blue walking through the halls, cheerfully greet- ing all he met. Mr. Blue, never too busy to help anyone needing his aid. This was our Principal. Mr. Blue spent his life trying to start young people on the right paths in life. He taught in Defiance, Paulding, and Henry County schools until 1936 when he entered the Defiance City School System. He Mr. F. G. Blue served as principal of the old second ward school on Holgate Avenue, then Slocum. While Mr. Blue was at Defiance High School, he was assistant prin- cipal for five years until 1955 when he was promoted to principal. Due to a heart attack, Mr. Blue's career in educa- tion ended on February 24, 1958, after 33 years of service. It is true that Mr. Franklin Blue has ceased to exist physically, but a man like him cannot be erased from the hearts of his associates and students.
