Dear Mr. Girard: My deeds must be my life. When l am dead my actions must speak for me.” The profound meaning of those words was firmly established when you founded Girard College. With a father’s care you defined and described the institution which was to nourish and educate your foster sons. This school has spoken eloquently and appreciatively of your life.
