Thank You, Father . . . ONCE, in the most memorable moment of your lifetime, you were cganointed a priest forever according to the order of Melchiseclechfa Later there was given you the task of training the minds of collegians; from that day you have labored humbly in the Vineyard of Christ as a teacher of Catholic youth. The fruits of that labor are the impressions formed in the hearts and minds of your students. Here in the Valley you have become an integral part of our lives. From chapel to classroom, in all campus activities, you have added many rich pages to our book of college memories. In the chapel you have guided us along the road to spiritual maturity, increasing our love of God and our fidelity to our better selves. Truly, you have heightened in us our appreciation of religious values in life. In the classroom, you have opened to us the majestic gates of higher knowledge, inclining our minds toward the beauty of philosophic wisdom. Skillfully you have succeeded in making the experience pleasant as well as stimulating! In all, you have been our friend, sharing our joys and our sorrows, offering enthusiastic encouragement, and lending understanding counsel. Generously have you given of time and self for the benefit of those around you. Words cannot adequately convey the debt of gratitude which the class of 1957 owes to you. We can only hope that you will accept this gesture as our humble way of saying, iiThank you, Fatherf, To you we dedicate this yearbook of 1957 in the hope that its pages will express what our own words cannot. May it long remain a tribute to one in whom is realized the ideals of Christ-as teacher, as chaplain, as f riend.
