But my thoughts always end with a sigh, never knowing why. He had such a kind heart. Joy and laughter he always brought. If you were sad, he ' d make you smile, At least for a little while. I know not why this had to happen, for I can still, hear him laughin ' So Dear God, I ' ll try not to cry, even though I ' m wondering why. I ' ll just let this poem end with a sigh . . • 75 Compliments of PAYNES FROSTY FREEZE Mathews, Virginia DAVIS RADIO TV SERVICE Service on all makes, BW Color Phone: 725-5123 Hallieford, Virginia HUGHES PLANING MILL Lumber, Paints, Building Materials Phone: 7 25-3692 The Annual Staff Wishes To Thank All Patrons Who Helped Make The 1971 Clipper Possible The Staff 76 ■ - .
