MEMORIES Memories light the corners of my mind, misty water color memories of the way we were. Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind, smiles we gave to one another for the way we were. Can it be? that it was all so simple then? or has time rewritten every line? If we had the chance to do it all again tell me, would we? could we? Memories may be beautiful and yet. what's too painful to remember we simply chose to forget. So its the laughter we will remember whenever we remember the way we were. Following graduation hugs and tears are shared by graduates as well as parents. The realization came that high school and all its good times are now just memo- ries for the Class of 1986. Putting the final touches on the class shield is Randy Hand. This Senior, known for his wildlife sketches, donated his talents for this project. We’ve Got Memories-207

Editors Dai Nguyen and Valerie Gorman The task of making a hook that captures the people and events of an entire school year is not an easy one. A yearbook is the product of many peoples’ thoughts, ideas, and especially, hard work. It is not unusual to stay until 5 o’clock on school nights, to work weekends and several weeks after school is out to get the job done. This year’s staff consisted of a few veterans, hut mostly first year rookies. What could have been a problem became an exciting change. New people brought the yearbook a new look and feeling. Inexperience brought new light to things that had always been done the same way. Not only does the staff deserve thanks, but so do many people who had no obligation to the book. Thanks goes to: Mark Richardson for donating time and pictures to the news section; to Erin Craig for her voluntary work in the dark room after school was out; to the staff of the Herald and News for donating several sports pictures and to all of the businesses who advertised in our book. I hope that this book will be special souvenir of your years at Ma ama. It is especially dedicated to the Class of 1986. As friends move in different directions and follow their dreams, it is our intention that when they look through these pages that memories of this year will not be forgotten. Goodbye and Good Luck! Sincerely, Valerie Gorman 208-Editor’s Note
