Were with
us…seems just yesterday.
And then He
heard each student say:
We are
“present” at the gate,
Don’t count us
“absent” or too “late”!
We’ve been good
students, never bad.
We walked the
halls of CHS,
We played
sports & we took tests.
Great teachers
we did have,
To be a part of
the “ ’62 Crowd”!
Now, Shirley
left in ’69,
Edward &
Alvin close behind,
Then Ray &
Miner’s names were called,
The Angels they
did all applaud!
Larry &
Marvin were next to leave,
Followed by Roger,
I do believe,
Their seats in
Heaven to receive.
Mike
Braswell passed away.
Then, once
again, our class wept….
Gone…our
friend, Dale Galloway.
Glenda
couldn't wait,to meet her brother at the gate.
Goodbye...Johnny, Robert, Wayne,
They walked with us down memory lane!
Now Angels laugh 'til in pain,
For Ed is there to entertain!
2014,we're sad again,Bootsie went home...sweetest "gal" we've ever seen!
Ray rode
through the gates of Heaven on his Gold Wing.
He smiled when he saw his friends & began to sing.
2015,
brought sadness, once again.
Donnie cruised by St. Peter, in his '69 Camaro car.
How we miss all those gone on thus far.
2016,
once again, we shed a tear, for we have lost a dear. Betty was proud
to see our crowd.
Our girls, Polly, Lynn, and Shirley
Met up at the Pearly.
Two of our Billy's have gone on,
Happy to see they weren't alone.
Our school’s in rubble, what a shame,
No new school
could be the same.
We’ll gather
here as time does pass,
Then join our
friends of the ’62 class.
Coach Cox will
greet us when we go.
Dr. Layton is
there we all know.
Mr. Summers
will lead us in a song,
For in the
choir we do belong!
Sing “Alma
Mater” out with cheer…
“Hail to Thee”
our Lord will hear!
He’ll think us
all so rowdy & loud,
But like our
teachers, He’ll be proud…
To have with
Him
The
“ ’62 Crowd”!
