In Memoriam

Here we pay tribute to those classmates who are no longer with us, in celebration of their lives.

If you would like to contribute your memories of a deceased classmate,

"There is a sweetness to my life that has subtly slipped its way in.
Certainly not always, but often.

The water is more friendly, and I hear music again,
in a wave cresting over the bow of our canoe,
in the wolf-like howl of Midnight Sun,
in the streets of Barcelona,
in the cry of a lone seagull,
and in the touch of my husband's hand as we sing out the refrain of 'Stand By Me.'

Knowing what is likely ahead,
there is a powerful sadness that comes with this re-found love of living.
But this is a sadness I can bear.

Connected where once I was fragmented,
I now know that peace can come to a tormented mind,
that there is beauty that stands in stark contrast to horror,
and that there is love that comforts pain."
