Time Te Day Goodbye The Class of '84 held their Senior Banquet at Fanny's at the Holiday Inn on Broad Street. The night began as the Seniors were greeted by the Junior Marshalls. They then proceeded into the dining room where they were served an elegant dinner. After everyone had eaten all they could, the entertainment began. Mrs. Eggleston started off the events by singing, ‘You've Gota Friend,” Jennifer McCloughan add- ed her talent by singing, ‘‘Memories”, which bought a tear to many eyes. Enter- tainment was also given by the Seniors themselves as many decided to place their napkins on their heads instead of their laps. The Last Will and Testament was read by Mel A lexander and Jerry Ray, accompa- nied by many laughs from the audience. The faculty got their revenge when the Teachers’ Last Will and Testament was read. The night ended with many hugs and good-byes.
