done, good and faithful servant • • • Mrs. Agnes L. 'I'inney Librarian, 1947-1954 A teenager to most people is a necessary evil that eventually develops into a man. If everyone thought that way, the status of youth in the world today would be a poor one. Fortunately, this sentiment is not entertained by all. There are a few men and women left in the world who realize the importance of youth and do everything they can to help it. Such a person was Mrs. Agnes I.. 'Finney. Year after year, Mrs. 'Finney devoted herself to Ignatius and Ignatians. Thanks to her, the downstairs library is one of the best in any high school anywhere. More than once, her knowledge of books helped a befuddled freshman or a struggling senior to find a good book and to appreciate it fully. She realized that books represented a whole new world for boys, a world she thought so wonderful that she devoted years to revealing it to Ignatians. On February 26, 1954, Mrs. 'Finney went home on sick leave. After a long and painful illness, during which her patience and Christian resignation were a source of edification to all who visited her, she died in Ashtabula, Ohio, on August 16, 1954. We thank Mrs. 'Finney for all she has done for Ignatius. We know that her reward is one far greater than we Ignatians could ever offer. Ego sum Resurrectio et Vita
