Within months nearly every stu- dent was able to understand his rights and wrongs. He was a man that helped anyone and everyone, all the time, when they were in need of a friend. He helped students cope with their problems in and out of school. He treated every student equally and fairly. He was a good principal in every way, and each student could find a good friend in him. Mr. Ronald Blake has been an English teacher for three years. During his time here he has entered the hearts of every student who has had him and those who haven't. He is a teacher but deep inside he has a heart made of gold, and can be the best friend you will ever have. Since he has been teaching at Parsons High School we have been touched deeply by his outgoing personality and his never ending jokes. 2 4 RONALD BLAKE SYLVIA DUDA WILLIAM HADDOX HAL BLANKENSHIP TERRY GAINER GEORGE HOWARTH PAMELA CHENOWETH NEIL GUTSHALL TOM KLUS DELORES CONSLA PHYLLIS HARMAN STEVE LEE 5 CHARLES LLOYD GLEN PATSY DOUGLAS SPESSERT RUTH MULLENAX LONDA RIGNEY PATRICIA USNIK LINDA NEWCOME WILLIAM ROSENAU BRUCE WELLS ROSE PASTINE CAROL ROY DEBRA WELTMAN 6 DOUG WHITE CURTIS WYMER MRS.
