Mrs. Dell has served as housemother here at SCMA for 13 years. Before coming here, she was housemother and manager of the Quartermaster Shop at Brown Military Academy for years. She also served for 22 years at John Brown University. In all, Mrs. Dell has dedicated 43 years in service to young people in various capacities in the John Brown Schools. We salute you, Mrs. Dell, for your many years of dedication and loyalty. IN MEMORIUM BOB H. WILLIAMS On Friday, October 27, 1978, Bob Williams passed away suddenly. His going was a great shock and loss to all who knew and loved him. His sensitivity, humor, love of God and his unique talent with children set him apart as a great man. Bob gave 18 years of his life to SOMA. He served in many capacities: summer school counselor, teacher, chaplain. Principal and Director of Admissions. His life has affected many young men and his influence in their lives will never be fully known. We miss the humor, sensitivity and love that was Bob, but we still feel his influence in so many areas here at SOMA. A truly great man has now left us, but his memory will be with us for a long, long time. ADMINISTRATION t K ■ 0. i f ?! I U r „i Mi, ' ■ Mr. George V.
