Another year has Anally come to a close in our lives. We hope we have captured some of the more memorable moments of this year. At this particular time we would like to express a very hardy “Thank You” to all the people who have helped to make this yearbook possible. Ms. Reba Jones, our advisor, who helped us through some of the really hard parts. We’re sure that we’ve kept her from sleeping on different occasions worrying if we would meet our deadlines. Greg Petrowich, our assistant editor, who helped us a great deal with the book working long hours and staying up until very late in the night. Our staff members who pul up with all of our screaming and telling them what we needed and what we didn’t. Our photographers who spent a lot of their spare time taking pictures. Our teachers, who gave us their support and patience in completing this book. Mrs. McConnell who drew the cover for us. Paul Petri who spent a lot of his time doing art work for us. And last but not least, the most important thank you to you, the student, who really made the yearbook what it is. Thanks again. 5 Laurel Short Ann Berry Co-Editors

IN MEMORY IT COULDN'T BE DONE Somebody said that it couldn't be done. But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t, but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it Somebody scoffed: “Oh, you'll never do that; At least no one ever has done it ; But be took off his coat and he took off his hat. And the first thing we knew he'd begun it With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin. Without any doubting or quiddit. He started to sing aj he tackled the thing That couldn't be done, and he did it There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done. There are thousands to prophesy failure; There are thousands to point out to you, one by one. The dangers that wait to assail you. But just buckle in with a bit of a grin. Just take off your coat and go to it; Just start to sing as you tackle the thing That “cannot be done,- and you'll do it kdcab a. cuxrr FLOYD HENRY REUSS 1924-1986 Floyd Reuss was born on September 21, 1924. He was married to Mildred Harriss on May 18, 1946. They had four children — Robert. Donald. Geraldina, and Judy, all of whom attended New Athens High School. Floyd began his employment for New Athens Community District 60 on May 5. 1969. and continued to work here until his death on April 8, 1986. Floyd drove a school bus and took care of maintenance from the beginning of his employment in 1969 to the end of the school year in 1984. At that time he resigned the bus driving part of his employment but continued to be in charge of maintenance. If anyone needed anything repaired from the boiler to a pencil sharpener, Floyd was the one who could do the job. Over the summer months he always spent his time repairing and improving things for all of us so that we could start off every new school year with polished floors, painted walls, clean carpets, and with most things in working order. Floyd was going to retire this coming September; however, his untimely death resulted in his spending his last days still doing things for all of us. He will be sadly missed by all of his co-workers, administrators, teachers, and the students. 6
