WHEN I DIE give what’s left of me away to children and old men that wait to die.
And if you need to cry, cry for your brother walking the street beside you.
And when you need me, put your arms around anyone and give them
what you need to give me.
I want to leave you something, something better than words or sounds.
Look for me in the people I’ve known or loved,
and if you cannot give me away,
at least let me live in your eyes and not in your mind.
You can love me best by letting hands touch hands,
and by letting go of children that need to be free.
Love doesn’t die, people do. So, when all that’s left of me is love,
Give me away.
We intend to keep as accurate a list as we can of our deceased classmates and the year of their passing. You may select below the showing of deceased classmates by the year of their death, or alphabetically, or with their high school picture. You will have to page down until you find the classmate about whom you are interested in reading our "In Memoriam" notice. Then "click" on their name or picture.
You can help us by sending us notice of any inaccurate information. When you "click" on a name below, you will retrieve a passage we have written about our classmate. If for any reason you believe our information is inaccurate, please feel free to give us notice and we will consider an alteration.
If you wish to listen to some music as you look at these "In Memory" writings, you may start the playlist by clicking on this blue button; then control the volume to suit yourself.
If you are aware of a Classmate who should be added to this page please let us know.
