Fifty years ago we probably thought little about death;
Our interests were of boys or girls, not taking our last breath.
Our lives were carefree, fun-filled, and sometimes even upside down;
But we believed our friends would always be around.
Now it has been 60 years and two hundred forty of our classmates have gone to a better place;
But that leaves a big void that can never be replaced.
One by one our circle of friends has been broken;
And many words of love and respect were left unspoken.
Cherished memories never fade when a friend is gone;
But they will forever in our hearts live on.
Thank you God for each of these friends so rare;
Today we honor them for their worth is beyond compare.
