Stately and strong we see you as you stand As firm as mighty Nature, and serene You proclaim yourself as king and queen. Sometimes with greatest reverence I think 'Twixt boyhood and manhood, you form the link, A perfect place, yet made by mortal hand, For there within the shadows of your walls Our characters were molded, good or badg And for your help, our blessing on you falls. Our friends were made, the lasting loves of life, That 'til eternity will never break, Those brief four years were freest from the strife That later years our life, a burden make. Comradeship and spirit filled every breath- May the same e'er be with us e'en in death! So good luck, JeFf, thru the years, When each of us from life has passedg But the love and courage will last Which you taught us thru sunshine and tears. rf
