You follow a long line of classes which have distinguished themselves in loyalty and service to their Country, to their Church and to their God. This is the inheritance, grand and sublime as it is, left by your predecessors as you, the Class of 1952, set out on the voyage of life. May you carry on the beautiful traditions of the classes which have gone on before you in putting into practice the religious and moral principles taught you at St. Jean. Love Mary, your heavenly Mother, with a tender and filial love. A child of Mary cannot perish. May God have you in His holy keeping. 7 A w 9 X Zig, Father Fraser Pastor of St. Jean Church, Muskegon -l
