Thirty-five years ago on June
1, I walked across the stage in the gym of THS and received my high school
diploma. Shortly prior to that, I was up on that stage as the salutatorian
giving the salutatory speech. I don’t know if I still have it around here somewhere
or not, but the gist of it was that we are learning from the moment we are born
until we take our last breath. And the culmination of a high school education
is just the tip of the ice berg. Or some sort of rambling thing like that. How
many different takes can there be on a graduation speech?
So, here I am in our front
yard that morning with faithful Mac.
Me with Lori and Brenda. Lori
was the valedictorian, who gave the valedictory.
(Where do they come up with those words? Or better yet, the mortarboard hats?)
Congratulations to all of
this year’s graduates!
