B, Co-Captain Soccer, Wrestling, Baseball, Seminar, Swing Band, Allen Hall Council, Christmas Pageant, Student Court, Handbook On the athletic field and in class affairs Garry gladly shouldered a heavy load and earned our respect and affection. Girard has meant more to us than just a school. It has been a way of life which only a Hummer can appreciate. It has been a long but a good journey. Looking back at past years, we can summarize what Girard has done for us. With our social and educational background, we can expect a future of promise and success. Girard has given us more than we can ever repay. In return we must never forget our responsibilities as representatives of this beloved school. It was a privilege and an honor to be elected your leader. We have faced minor difficulties, and we have had our share of let-downs, but we have benefited from our mistakes. I would like to thank each of you sincerely for the support and cooperation you have given me throughout this memorable year. In a few short days we will walk down the aisle for the last time. We will look into each other’s eyes and think of the heartaches and joys we have shared together. Let us never forget these many memories which lie deep in our hearts. Girard has given us a firm foundation, one which we were fortunate to receive. It is up to us to take advantage of it. Now we must leave, but deep in our hearts there will always be a place for Girard. Dear Temple on the hill”, I bid you farewell; and classmates, may God be with you every step of the way. Sincerely yours, t ifot cn «! 27 y
