We. the class of 1986, proudly dedicate our yearbook to our parents- the people whose love and support mean so much to us. On the day we were born, our parents began their on-going concern for us. They realized how quickly our lives would pass by us. Our parents’ encouragement and as surance supported us in our early school years. They were so proud of each of our accomplishments. When high school arrived. Mum and Dad hoped that we would be the very best we could. The many lectures given to us were meant to mold us into better people. Their aid with homework, money, and school problems never seemed to end. When graduation day arrives, we step into a new phase of life. No longer are we children. The world awaits us. Many friends will be gone, but one special relationship will always remain with us. The bond between parent and child never fades. It will grow stronger as we depend on them even more in the future. On behalf of the class of 1986. we present the Amptennian to Mom and Dad. for always supporting and loving us, and for always being there for us.
