To Mrs. McNaught, our Educational Director, and our instructors who have spent long hours writ¬ ing up lectures, giving us their time and knowledge that we might obtain the goal that was ours--Thank You! We are grateful and thankful to our Doctors, Head Nurses and staff of our hospital for their kind¬ ness, guidance and patience, especially during times when perhaps as we learned, we hindered more than we helped. To the undergraduates, our little sisters, we wish the best in the coming years. Your friendship, best wishes and understanding--especially during the R.N. examinations when seniors were very tempera¬ mental people to live with--was appreciated. Now we come to our parents. We love you so much for your constant support and loving kindness. The care packages from home, the letters of en¬ couragement (sometimes lectures), the needed financial assistance, the understanding when we were complaining, tired and unsociable, will never be forgotten. You have longed for this night just as we have, and the honor of our success is equally shared by you—Mom and Dad. For months we have been counting the days to the completion of our training and yet we reach the occasion with rather mixed emotions in the realization we have come to the parting of the ways. We will always cherish memories of residence life--the water fights, pizza, pizza and more pizza and the constant reminder of curfew. I would like to thank the one person who listened to my prob¬ lems, who put up with our messy room, that person being my roommate. Thank you, Marlene. Tonight our joy is tinged with sadness, we are missing one classmate-Carol Storey—whose tragic death occurred on November 23, 1969. In her memory we would like to say these few words: Her smiling way and pleasant face Are a pleasure to recall. She had a kindly word for each And died beloved of all. Thank you classmates for the honor of being Valedictorian. In closing, I would like to leave my class with these thoughts: Always come to your patient garbed in the uniform of knowledge, wearing the cuffs of service, the collar of efficiency, crowned by the cap of charity, and bound by the black band of silence. Then will the unseen audience of your school, parents, friends and instructors silently applaud. When your patient by her look of appreciation and thanks pins on your breast the gold medal of approval, approval of your worthiness to practice your vocation in the service of God and mankind, then, and only then, can it be truly said of each and everyone of you. She has graduated, she is a nurse. Anonymous Elaine Hubic 29
