FIRST ROW, Left to Right: Mr. Harold Young, Mr. George Abel. SECOND ROW: Mr. Warren Fudge, Mr. Robert Coye, Mr. Otto Goethals, Dr. J. Earl Millet, Dr. Olin Lepard, Mr. Richard Freeman, Mr. Ernest Schaefer. Dedication It has been the tradition that the Sturgensian he dedi¬ cated to a deserving faculty member. This year we dare to break this tradition for it is our intention to honor the community, represented by the Citizens Com¬ mittee headed by Mr. Robert W. Coye, the Board of Education with Mr. Richard L. Freeman as their presi¬ dent, and Mr. Warren J. Fudge, the advisor to the Citizens Committee and Superintendent of the Sturgis School District. These three men were the instigators in the drive for a new high school of which we are very proud and happy to use. Although two bond issues were defeated, these people and their committees were not going to give up easily. They put their shoulders to the wheel and brought up another bond issue which was finally accepted by a majority of the voters. Their • arduous work was rewarded with this new high school which is a credit to the community. Mr. Robert Coye has tirelessly dedicated himself to j the sole objective of working to provide a better edu- j cation for all the students of the Sturgis School Dis- i trict. He inspired and organized the Citizens Com¬ mittee into a unified group to inform the public on the I various school problems. All in all we were fortunate in having such a civic-minded man as Mr. Robert Coye to preside over the Citizens Committee. Mr. Richard Freeman, as president of the Board of Education, gave strong support to the school bond issue; this support proved to be a decisive factor in the success of the bond issue. The community has profited by electing such high-caliber men as Mr. Free¬ man and the Board of Education members to repre¬ sent the educational interests of the people. A lasting tribute should be given to Mr. Warren Fudge for his countless hours of patient and diligent work as the advisor to the Citizens Committee. With¬ out his knowledge, the committee could not have de¬ veloped such a comprehensive ten year building pro¬ gram for the benefit of the whole community. We also wish to express our gratitude to the com¬ munity for giving us this High School to better our education. To these three men, Mr. Robert Coye, Mr. Richard Freeman, and Mr. Warren Fudge, to the Board of Edu¬ cation, to the Citizens Committee, and also to the com¬ munity, we, the Class of 1963, respectively and grate¬ fully dedicate our Sturgensian.
