Now as we turn our thoughts to the past And look toward the years gone by, We see the many stepping-stones We've passed here at Red Bank High. As our graduation approaches, The stepping-stone into life, We must go out and face the world, Its problems and its strife. We each will try our very best As we go our separate ways To lighten the load on the shoulders of others In order to brighten their days. To you, the Class of Fifty-Seven, With your friendship warm and true, I hope success will come your way In everything you do. I hope the future will unfold Whatever you would win. I hope you find your pot of goldf I hope your ship comes in. And now as we cross those stepping-stones And launch out upon Iife's sea, Let's remember to light that one little candle And a brighter world there will be. - Kay McMillan I36
