s l ccccc 1 In Memoriam We, the students of Virden Community High School, wish to pause a quiet moment in memory of one who would have graduated this year. J'. Alan Vancil fSeptember 7, 1931 - August, 1948Q, the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Merle Vancil, moved to Virden when he was in the eighth grade. He graduated with his class in 1945 and went with them through three years of, high school. During this time, he was a very active mem- ber of the band, fully enjoying work on his coronet. Here rests his head upon the lap of Earth A youth to Fortune and to Fame unknown. Fair Science frowned not on his humble birth, And Melancholy marked him for her own. Large was his bounty, and his soul sincere, Heaven did a recompense as largely send: He gave to Misery all he had, a tear, He gained from Heaven Ctwas all he wished, a friend. No farther seek his merits to disclose, Or draw his frailties from their dread abode, fThere they alike in trembling hope repose,j The bosom of his Father and his God. -Thomas Gray 6
