Harrisville Central School - Pirates Log Yearbook (Harrisville, NY)

IN MEMORIAM We note, with regret, the passing of Miss Helen Weekes on February 3, 1972. Miss Weekes, shown in the photo at the left receiving the dedication copy of the 1971 PIRATES LOG from Michael Backus, had taught business subjects in the Harrisville Central School system for twenty-seven years prior to her retirement in 1954. The courage displayed by Miss Weekes during the many months of her affliction did not overly astonish us as she had always faced reality with resoluteness. Her memory will live for years in the minds and hearts of her many former students and friends. Dennis Chartrand, son of Mr. Edward Chartrand and the late Mrs. Beatrice Cring Chartrand, was fatally injured in an automobile accident in mid-January 1972. Dennis, better known to his family and friends as Beaver, was a member of the sixth grade. Words are inadequate to express the void left by the passing of one so young. May he find fulfillment in the everlasting presence of his Creator. RETIRED TEACHERS-JUNE 1971 The members of the faculty and the yearbook staff extend their warmest wishes for a long and happy retirement to Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Shinnick and Miss Lois Killingbeck, three members of the teaching staff who retired in June, 1971. Although officially retired, Mr. and Mrs. Shinnick, who had a combined total of forty-five years of service in the system, have not completely severed their ties with H.C.S. as they are frequent substitutes . Miss Killingbeck had joined the staff in 1950 after a number of years in other systems. To all three, our con- gratulations . May your retirement be a productive and satisfying one.
