Rosita Qhares Her Love and Life With Fairbury ». The American Field Service Program, in an effort to promote brotherhood and understanding among countries, gives foreign students the opportunity to live in America and learn of different lifestyles and cultures. Rosita Ximena Jara Galdames, our ninth AFS student, came to Fairbury from Los Andes, Chile, where she lives with her parents. Rosita’s American home was with the George Fyke family. At FCHS Rosita participated in the school activities which included G.A.A., Math Club, Chorus, Student Council, National Honor Society, and the ADVOCATE, for which she wrote the series “Life in Chile.” Rosita, who was active on the gymnastics team and drama group in Chile, also enjoyed attending football and basketball games and school dances, and working in her spare time at The Cornbelt Publishing Company. She had the opportunity to visit Chicago and Springfield. When Rosita was asked what she enjoyed the most about her stay in the U.S. she replied, “I really enjoyed the AFS weekend, my job at the Blade, school dances, being a member of chorus, and just those good times being with my friends and family! The George Fyke family: Mr. Fyke, Mrs. Fyke, Nancy Fyke, Rosita Jara, Karen Fyke.

In Dedication to and WHY In our prayers we ask why? And we never get an answer. But, if you really stop and think. She probably is happier. Mary Frances Mehrkins For those of you who knew her, let me refresh your memories. For those of you who didn’t, let me give you a slight description: A sweet girl who wouldn’t hurt anyone; a petite blonde with blue eyes and always smiling. She loved the Beatles, Dave Clark Five, and usually had a crush on more than one guy. Mary had a warm heart, an open mind, and a bubbly personality. She liked to dance, eat pizza, talk on the phone (for hours), watch TV, and play the stereo way up on HIGH. Her favorite color was yellow. She liked just about everyone, and her family ties were strong. She disliked school and getting her hair cut. Some of her hobbies were swimming, baseball, and bicycling. Although she is not physically with us anymore, she will remain in the minds of many people—forever.
