Edgecombe County Memorial Library Tarboro, NC Given In Loving Memory Of Theresa Ward Brown Beloved Home Economics Teacher at West Edgecombe High School from 1954 to 1978 by St Gerald Ward and Carolyn W. Griffin DEMCO, INC.— Archive Sale £ Foreword The main objectives of West Edgecombe School are to impart knowledge, to build character, and to lay a foun¬ dation for the future. Consider your assignments seriously and make certain that you obtain the most from your present opportunities. We want you to become productive, useful, and happy citizens. This book is a record of your life at West Edgecombe School for 1968-1969. 2 Dedication Miss Annie Mears She has dedicated her life to serving young people of West Edgecombe. Her understanding and devotion have guided us through the formative years of our education. To show our appreciation for all that she has done for us, we, the Senior Class, proudly dedicate the 1969 WESCOMB to Miss Annie Mears. Our Parents We, the Senior Class, proudly dedicate the 1969 WESCOMB to our parents, who, with love and understanding, have guided us through the formative and complex years of our lives. They have inspired in us a sense of right and wrong, courage to meet the future, and a desire to reach the unreachable. Our sincere thanks and grati¬ tude go to our parents, who have made this year a reality. Miss Nettie Bunn We, the Senior Class, with love and admiration, dedicate the 1969 WESCOMB to Miss Nettie Bunn, our music director. The beautiful music which she produces boosts the pride and morale of each West Edgecombe student. Miss Bunn ' s con¬ tributions to the entire school have been a result of her sincere dedication in sharing her talents with others. Her very tone is music ' s own, Like those of morning birds, And something more than melody Dwells even in her words. Edward Coote Pinkney A HEATH 3 In Memoriam Winnie Gail Harrell Winnie, an active member of her home, her school, and her community, always faced life with a willingness to work and with a ready smile. The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Harrell, she was a member of Temperance Hall Methodist Church where she served as church pianist. In school, she was loved and is missed by her fellow classmates and all who knew her. She was a member of the Future Homemakers of America, the Glee Club, and sang with the Wescomb Singers. Winnie had a special love for music; her life can best be described as a melody that will linger in our hearts forever. ► I V | i These candid shots portray Winnie in her church attitude and in her recreational attitude. These were an integral part of her life. 4 Principal Mr. R. M. Cashwell Today life offers so many challenges and opportunities. To enjoy these opportunities, you must work, have patience, and face problems promptly and squarely. You must think clearly and postively about all peoples and about all things.
