ZIASS POEM ■e may fuss and we may fight, 3ut our bark is always worse than our bite; Rj iding as usual and mostly for fun, s class of 25 has now become one. --membering the good times along with the bad e ones that made us happy and the ones that made us sad, •e ve grown up together from way back when - -c as a family we’ve come from then. :' always there is a giggle ready I' :acks sticking up and BB's flying steady, • en a joking retort cuts through the air, Sc:hing but joking is ever found there. r mis class was always a friend to rely on, I nd in times of trouble, a shoulder to cry on, “Trough sport shots and school rots and all of that, - hung on together — that's a known fact. Ec whenever in a crowded room or sitting all alone, •ven someone calls your name out loud or gives a giant moan, ell think of these precious high school years, -emembering the laughter as well as the tears. ' s hard to think that it's time to part vth friends that will always be engraved on our heart; -nd though we’ll miss these times whether in this town or another, One thing is for sure — Most of all — We will miss each other! — Sallie Traylor USHERS (Not Pictured): Andy Ligon, Debbie Plampin, Chris McMeekin, Helen Matthews.

Dedication Well, I know it’s hard to understand the reason why, And I know you’ll know more when it’s time for you to die. Don’t believe the life you live will be the only one; You have to let your body sleep to let your soul live on. 24
