Randolph Central School District was saddened by the sudden death on November 27, 1961, of Mr. Kenneth E. Gibbin, district super- intendent of Cattaraugus County Third Super- visory District. Death was attributed to a heart attack. During Mr. Gibbin's entire professional career, he was dedicated to the cause of edu- cation. Since moving to East Randolph in 1941, he was particularly interested in the welfare of the schools in our local area. His chief concern was the enlargement of educa- tional opportunity for all pupils of Randolph and vicinity. He continually fought for the elevation of standards, and the securing of sufficient state aid to make this goal possible. He was a devoted husband and father, and a loyal friend. He participated in community affairs insofar as his time permitted. He will be greatly missed by all those who knewihim. 4 MEMORIAL We present this publication, that may remain a lasting tribute to the name of Lloyd Edward Post, who died May 27, 1957, friend and classmate, too soon tragically parted from us and those who loved him. It is not growing like a tree In bulk, doth make Man better beg Or standing long an oak, three hundred year, To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sereg A lily of a day Is fairer far in May, Although it fall and die that night- It was the plant and flower of Light. In small proportions we just beauties see 3 And in short measures life may perfect be.
