Bev's hobby of doing thoughtful things for others will always bring sweet memories to her class- mates. Among her favorite remembrances of St. Iohnls, the Ring Ceremony and the dinner at Mama Leone's will always rank first. After school hours, the first stop is always the telephone. It seems homework has a way of slipping by un- noticed. Chemistry was a necessary evil which Bev endured in order to achieve her goal - nurs- ing school.

Noted for her straight forwardness and simplicity, Barbara enjoys dancing and just listening to good music, especially when the music has a Latin American beat. Her enthusiastic and candid questions display a keen eagerness to leam and this is embellished by her gracious and endlessly good-natured personality. Barbara will always remember Senior Retreat and the excitement of Senior VVeek. No matter what her goal, Barbara's perserverance will insure success. Choir, Glee Club, Marshal, Sodality. 3445444 Qfzazms Character calls for character. Quiet and polite, sweet and sincere, Barbara has that certain quality that makes you want to know her and have her as yo11r friend. On her list of favorites are school, biology, and swimming. She can dig into a pizza faster than the Freshmen shake when they see a Senior. Although she dislikes geometry, she loves St. johns Barbara will always remember the Prom and Senior XVeck. After graduation she plans to enter the business world. ' Art Club, Glee Club, Marshal, Yearbook Artist. Cpdkflla 5. Edifwggll Loyality is the greatest good in the human heart.
