There are so many people throughout each year that have helped each one of us in a dilterent way, l really believe some of them need to be recognized. Like parents, who have stood by us year after year. A lot of tirnesl wonderwhy they putlup with usg hauling us around the country, listening to us fight and yell with our brothers and sisters, and picking up after us, not to mention cooking, cleaning and providing a roof over our heads, But in theend they were still there patting us on the back for something done right or lending a shouldertor us to cry on. We owe a lot to ouriparents, but what about the people who put up with us five days a week and seven hours out of each day. These people really aren't humans though, they're super beings that have been blessed with a very special giltrlggress you know who l'nfr talking aboutg our teachers. For they are the ones who put os here tonight. We complain about how hard this test was or that the assignment was too long, but we knew its all for a purpose. We'll remember each of them for different reasons, like: Youfve gotta get down and move like a cat! They could be remembered forinetremembering anythinge- like, whatthey wentto the officeftor. They could be remembered for their sense ot humor and eraser throwing ability. But they could even possibly be remembered for a simple little thingiike a hairbrush. We tease and make fun with them, but all in alt, we loveltitem and weiilnever forget everything they've given to us. 4 There is one other person who l haven't mentioned yet. l've known him since i was seven and he's been with me ever since. There are times when things dont go just the way you've planned. As you go through life you encounter some problemsrhow you handle them isyup to you. but l needito talk about mine. The thing is though, l didn't always have to get down on my knees, i iust sat wherever l was to talk with him. He's the one that deserves any credit l get out of my life, and he's my best friend - Jesusphrist. g y lthink our class has reallywgrown close the last few months. After tonight many of us will go on to follow our dreams and l'm glad to be a part ot that. Whether it be to college, the senrice, getting a job, or starting a famity, l wish every one of you the best, always. Though we may move apartgwe'll neverlese all the memories that we've shared together over the years. Thank you. i Stephani Musick Salutatory Address As our class is before you tonight, you will see a side of us that wilt face the world after we walk out of the doors.
