Whereas, God, who is allwise, who doeth all things well, saw fit to remove from our midst our beloved friend and co-worker, Mr. John Newsom, and Whereas, we esteemed him as a loyal Senior, one who was tender-hearted, kind, and gentle in all his ways, and one who loved his fellowmen; therefore be it
RESOLVED: First, That we the members of the Senior class, of which the deceased was a member, appreciate his faithfulness and loyalty as a member of our class. We bow in humble submission to Him who doeth all things for the best.
Second, That we extend to the family our deepest sympathy and respect, and we trust that the God of all comfort may sustain and keep them.
Third, That a copy of these resolutions be placed on record, and a copy be sent to the family, to the Lexhipep, and to the local paper.
Joe Moffitt, President
Foil Essick, Vice-President
Ruth McCarn, Secretary
