I truly appreciate Scratchie's walk down memory lane with the gentlemen of the three hostels. Sorry I cannot do the same with the ladies. I particularly enjoyed the nicknames by which they were more popularly known. In his wisdom he left out some of the more intimate but 'not so pleasant' ones earned during 'Initiation.' In our year it was Harry Joe who recited for us the poem 'even this shall pass away.' Hymns like 'Lead Kindly Light' sung at the close of that period were most appropriate. But the one that will forever be etched on the momory of the '67 - '69 group is 'Departure' whuch was sung at the funeral service of 2 of our more popular students who passed away under tragic circumstances - Cheryl Gittens and Horatio Hospedales. Thankfully we have made it to COVID and many of us are in the most vulnerable age group. Let us do our best observing all protocols so that GOD willing we come out of it alive
