The celebration banquet was held at the residence of alumnus Clifford Travis. It was festive and fantastic. It was all dancing, eating and drinking. An alumnus said this was the best celebration ever. Adding, I am glad I came.
On Sunday, March 22, the class gathered at the Ebenezer Community Church in Brooklyn Park, MN for the thanksgiving and intercessory service. In his sermon the theme: “If I had known,” the newly elected President of the class, Rev. Clifford Hook called on all Christian to be their brothers’ keeper. He said know one knows the future; we can make the world a better place by lending a hand to our neighbor. Now is the time he emphasized, for tomorrow may be too late and there was be no time to say, “If I had known.”
