"STILL ALIVE AFTER 35"

DEDICATED TO THE SHS SENIOR CLASS OF

'76

POEM BY SUSAN CARAWAY ANDRUS

 

THE SR. "BICENTENNIAL" CLASS OF '76...

BOND TOGETHER TO SHARE ALL THE MEMORIES WE MISS...

TEACHERS, COACHES, COUNSELORS & PRINCIPALS

ALWAYS MADE A FUSS...

NEVER WOULD THERE BE ANOTHER CLASS LIKE US...

NO THOUGHTS OF BEING BETTER THAN EACH OTHER...

IS THE SECRET THAT BOUNDS US TOGETHER...

STRONGER THEN, NOW AND FOREVER...

WITH ALL THE VARIETY OF ACADEMIC CHOICES...

WE HEARD NOT JUST ONE, BUT ALL THE VOICES...

DIDN'T MATTER WHICH SIDE OF THE TRAIN TRACK...

WE ALWAYS HAD EACH OTHERS BACK...

THAT'S WHAT MADE US SUCH A FIERCE PACK...

MOST WOULD SAY THAT COULDN'T BE TRUE...

WE PROVED THEM WRONG & STUCK TOGETHER LIKE GLUE...

WE REMINISCE THESE 35 YEARS...

YET OUR HEARTS & EYES FILL WITH TEARS...

FOR THOSE NO LONGER WITH US WE EMBRACE...

WITH US FROM HEAVENS ABOVE

RESTING IN A BETTER PLACE...

NO MATTER WHERE WE'RE GOING

OR WHERE WE'VE BEEN...

WE'VE BONDED TOGETHER & VOWED TO MEET AGAIN...

WE DON'T DEMAND TOO MUCH...

ALL WE'RE ASKING IS JUST STAYING IN TOUCH...

OUR CLASS REUNION WAS A BLAST FROM THE PAST...

MAKING NEW MEMORIES ARE THOSE THAT LAST...

THE BEST OF THE OLD...

ARE WORTH A FORTUNE IN GOLD...

'SPIRIT OF 76'
