DEDICA TION To our parents. It is often difficult to express gratitude to persons with whom we have a close emotional bond. It is also difficult even to enumerate the many ways that love and sacrifice have affected our lives. Your parental vision has directed us to the threshold of young Christian woman- hood. We stand there now, imbued with the ideals of liberal education, ready to assume and fulfill our challenging roles in modern society. We now possess insight into the vital role which you, our parents, have played in the opening acts of the drama of our lives. We have become aware of the invisible hand of love which has united us three — father, mother, daughter — under the watchful eye of the Blessed Mother, the Perfect Parent. No words that we might write now can suffice to express our gratitude. But if we, in the future, looking back on these words, can honestly say that we have given to our children as much as we have received, then we can say that we have lived up to your expectations. In recognition of our gratitude for your unselfish dedication, perpetual interest and numerous sacrifices, we, your daughters, dedicate to you, our mothers and fathers, this annual of our life at Villa Maria College. It will remain a testimony to the priceless qualities you have instilled in us. The Class of 1964
