• • • Our Secretaries Dedication, Intelligence, Tact, Poise, Concern, Wisdom. All of these characteristics describe Doris Woardell who reigned supreme in the principal’s office at Paramus High School for twenty-two years. Secretary to four principals during her service to the school, Mrs. Woardell provided a warm, inviting atmosphere to the office, which is the heart of the school. She was a worker, a friend, a director and above all a listener who provided counseling and compassion to all. Always pleasant, responsive, considerate, she was a bulwark of strength and stability. She will be missed by all who worked with her. We wish her a happy retirement with her devoted husband, Bud, her son and daughter-in-law, Robert and Patricia, and her three delightful grandchildren, Jennifer, Mary Jane, and Robert John. —David H. Broffman Mrs. Doris Woardell Secretary to Mr. Broffman Mrs. Cynthia King Secretary to Mr. Azzolino House 1 Like a beam of sunlight, Cynthia King has exuded warmth at Paramus High School for the past 19 years. She came as a temporary employee in the school office while her children, Cynthia and Richard, were students here, and much as “The Man Who Came to Dinner” did, she remained for an extended time. Her energy and vitality have pervaded House 1 where she has been secretary to Mr. Azzolino since 1972, and her op¬ timism has extended into the high school, for she is a caring person who demonstrates by word and deed her interest in people. Always conscientious, enormously competent, her longevity in Paramus High School has made her a walking archive of Paramus High School history. Retirement will give her more time with husband, Richard, and her two young grandchildren, Kirsten and Ian, and we wish her continued happiness and health, though we shall miss her. —Adele H. Stern 14
