MS. MARGARET KNOESEL

Disciplined and Kind Trustworthy and Inspiring . . . .

These are but a few of the qualities embodied in one person one woman. This lady has worked hard since the day she walked into MSU four years ago to inspire in all of us a feeling of self-worth and self-esteem. This lady has incessantly tried to instill in us a sense of responsibility, sometimes through repri­ mands, but more often by being a friend.

Ms. Margaret Knoesel arrived at Mount in September 1987the same year we did. Our class and Ms. Knoesel explored all facets of life at MSU, from joys to sorrows. For this reason, she is very dear to our hearts.

Ms. Knoesel, you have been a friend and confidante, not just our disciplinarian. In light of our high regard for you, we, the Graduating Class of 1991, would like to dedicate our yearbook to you. This yearbook is a symbol of our hard work and good times at Mount St. Ursula and no one deserves the fruits of our labor more than you. Your hard work and dedication have not gone by unappreciated.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

The Class of 1991

Freshman Year

9

It was freshman year when the confusion and doubt began tcfeg appear. ^ From the moment we walked through the door most of us were looking forward to June of '94.

VVe felt all alone, r|iaking important decisiohsi on our own.

We had many expectations, but we also had, our reservations.

We feared not fitting in, But then we realized our friendships ere gbout to begin.

V

We-^ach tried to understand how we felt.

Vve did our best with the cards we were dealt.

Our jbnior sisters were always there, with their helpful hands and speCfal care.

Now we look forward to Sophomore year,' with all our dreams we hold so dear.

Junior year may be far-away,But? what can vye say, we're looking forify^rd ^o Graduation Day. Maria Conciatori

S: :

In Sophomore year as soon as we get back. % Our teachers are trying to get us on track.

We immediately start getting ready for ring day.

The, day isn't to long; before you know it, it's come and gone.

We practice a special song and cf|Gorate the halls, Trying to make the day a wonderful one for all.

Soon after Ring Day, the Medieval Banquet is on its way.

We dress up in costumes and recreate what went on in that time of dfy.

Last but not least, we try to get our Seniojr.Sisters on.their way.

To future endeavofs that could make thqm famous someday We hate to see them go and the only way we can let It show.

Is to "From me to you - love and best wishes from the class of '93f".

As We Await . .

I

As we await our senior year, we remember the past memories we hold so dear.

Thinking back to the ninth grade most of us were confused and afraid.

O nce we learned the ropes, sophomore year was full of hopes.

Now, as juniors, it appears that most of us have overcome our beginning fears.

After June of '91, our future as seniors will have begun.

As we await Ring Day, good-bye may become harder and harder to say O nce we receive our rings it will be time to spread our wings.

Within this past year alone, we've gained a strong sense of responsibility.

We have tried to meet our potential to the best of our ability.

As we await our prom in May, we begin to fantasize of that day.

Of our dress we will dream, never-ending the night will seem.

Having the perfect date at our sides we'll let our hearts be the only guides.

As we await Graduation, we each receive an invitation to make decisions that may not keep us together, but will effect our lives forever.

It may be hard to believe it's true, but our waiting is over - it's June of '92.

We, the senior class, would like to thank all the people who have helped us get to this moment in our lives - our families, friends, and the teachers we all love - because we know that without them, these four years at Mt. St. Ursula would have been impossible. It is hard to believe we are finally graduating.

We have had a lot of fun together, and we want the people we leave behind to know that we will never forget them.

We want to thank the juniors for being great friends during our last three years. We appreciate all the help and time our sophomore sisters put into getting us ready for Ring Day. We would also like to thank the freshmen; even though we did not know you for very long, we will never forget you as part of our last year at Mount.

To Sr. Barbara, Ms. Knoesel, and all the faculty, we thank you for always being here to listen to our problems and for making us laugh.

And finally, let us pledge to one another to remember these four years we have spent together - to cherish the good and bad memories so that they help us learn from our mistakes and enable us to become caring, capable, and confident women. We pledge to make our families and Mount Saint Ursula proud.

Sincerely, The Class of '91'

We see so many ugly thingsDeceits and wrongs and quarrelings; We know, alas! we know How quickly fade The color in the west.

The bloom upon the flower.

The bloom upon the breast And youth's blind hour.

Yet keep within your heart A place apart Where little dreams may go.

May thrive and grow.

Hold fast-hold fast your dreams!

Two Sides of a Coin As different as black and white or night and day.

We each see things in our own way.

Arguments flare and insults fly.

But when it's all over we find we've forgotten the reason why.

Of course most often when we fight.

It's because we each think we're always right.

However, usually before long We discover we were both wrong!

We're best enemies and partners in crime.

We've said we hate each other many a time.

But even after a terrible fight.

We soon find a reason to reunite.

We're back together on the double.

And when we're together, it's DOUBLE TROUBLE!!

I hate her . . . your hair looks fine . . . You remind me of the babe ... I thought 1 saw a body drop ... Pizza Parties .. . Me-oww! . . . Did I forget anything? ... I hid Dennis in my closet . . . What time do they walk the dogs? . . . Lon­ don Bridge is falling down . . . Did you ever count the feet in that picture? . . . stringbean fights . . . She always says the dumbest things . . .

Hot Chocolate and S'mores .. . The rain is your fault . . .

You jinxed the bus! . . . The girl is crazy! . . . My mother wants to feed you . . . What does Chili look like? . . . I'm not speaking to her!

Delia

A mi amiga Delia, La amistad es una las cosas que vale la pena en nuestra vida. Amigas son personas quienes estan junto a uno en los tiempos malos y buenos. Amigas comparten secretos, opiniones, pero sobre todo, comparten un carino espe­ cial. Verdaderas amigas son dificiles de encountar y solo llegan una vez en la vida. Cuando se encuentran son como joyas que deben ser apreciadas. Tu eres una de estas joyas.

Tu amiga, Mildred Pereda

To Delia, To Delia, My wonderful sister and dear friend, What we have is a true friendship that is bonded by love, a love that can never be best wishes in all that you do. I love broken. You will always be my #1 friend, you.

Your sister, forever until eternal life.

Yolanda Congratulations Luv, Diana Congratulations! You did good, kid. Continue with your winning self and you will get what ever you want in life.

Love your brothers, sisters, and nieces!

Jeff, Yolanda, and Katelyn, Alex, Nelson, Mildred and Erica To my sister Delia, The reason God made lil’ sisters was because He knew that a little sister’s love and loyalty means more than words can tell. She shares your plans and crazy schemes, secret talks and squabbles, and then the two of you are grown she remembers all the things that you both shared. He made someone that would be a friend to cherish and love your whole life through. May God bless you and guide you every step.

Love Alex

To Delia: “All in the World I Need is You” All the world I want shines in your eyes, lives in your smile, and is held in your hands.

After all this time together the most impor­ tant thing that I have learned is that love is something you don’t take for granted. To love is to share life together with you. We have been through so much together, and yet we always come back closer and stronger than before.

Delia, you are my world, life, and my love.

“No Matter What” life holds in store, I know I can handle it as long as I have you by my side “Always and Forever.”

Congratulations!

Love, Hector

Since the beginning of time and through all my life I have followed a star, but it has been all in my mind.

I call her my star, but she is more like my dream A dream that is all I wanted it to be.

All the effort I have put in my star Who is more like my dream.

In December, my star was born Who was more like my dream.

A beautiful child she turned out to be My future, my hope, my life But yet more like my star and my dream.

Is it all in my mind?

Delia is her name and she is not in my mind She is real, she is my beautiful child and that is not in my mind.

She is my future, my hope, and my life I have been dreaming about the future of my dream, my star, my beautiful child.

Since the beginning of time and through all my life I have followed a star She is all I have, but she is all mine She is my beautiful child, Delia Congratulations!

The Love Of A Friend by: Tanisha Collazo The Love Of A Friend Is very hard to find.

It has to deal with the heart And not only the mind.

The Love Of A Friend Is something to treasure.

And when you know its true You receive a great deal of pleasure.

The Love Of A Friend As long as it’s true Can cheer you up When you’re feeling blue.

The Love Of A Friend Is as full as the sky Especially if you belong to the F.F.I. The B.A.B.E.S. are the best And they’ll last to the end Because they’re very rich with The Love Of A Friend.

To the B.A.B.E.S., We’ve had some great mo­ ments here at Ursula, but this is not the end. No matter where I am or what I’m do­ ing, I’ll be thinking of you all.

You’ll still see little me around. I love you all. Keep in touch.

Love, “Nugget”

To my fellow B.A.B.E.S., I wish you all success in your endeavors and remem­ ber that the B.A.B.E.S. are rare in quality, pure in heart.

Your sister 4-ever, Michelle

To the Babes of ’91: I wish all of you luck in your future endeavors.

Don’t stop until you finish climb­ ing the ladder of success. Whenev­ er you feel like giving up on any­ thing, remember that it is always darkest before the dawn.

Isabel Garmendiz “Dimples” From one Babe to the others.

I’m grateful for all the good times we’ve shared and only wish every­ one of you luck and great suc­ cess. I love you all.

Christine, You will always be our Sunshine. Not so long ago we carried you in our arms and watched you take your first step.

Then one day you blossom into a warm, sensitive, beautiful young lady. You have always sparkled our happiness. Every morning when we see you it's like the sunshine.

Now we'll see you graduate and will watch you open all the different doors of opportunities, risks, and happiness. We wish you the best life has to offer. Always do things. Don't futter away your time.

Soar not too high to fall, but stoop to rise.

Express your feelings, don't hold on to them. Accept yourself as you are and ev­ erything in your life as an opportunity for growth and learning. Then one day when we are older and grayer we will look at you and think of this graduation and still you'll be our Sunshine.

Querida Reina Leonor: Con tu venida al mundo, nacieron en nosotros muchas ilusiones que nunca creimos existieran. Supimos todo lo que la palabra “Felicidad” significa, una palabra comun quiza para muchos, pero que para nosotros fue como si desde el cielo, Dios nos sonriera.

For esto y por lo que tu eres hasta ahora, le agradecemos al Todopoderoso que tu nos hayas tocado en suerte, pues nunca nos has fallado y esperamos en Dios que nunca nos fallaras. Diariamente le rogamos que ilumine tus pasos, tu mente, y tu corazon, pues de esta manera nosotros, tus padres y hermanas, te seguiremos queriendo y admirando.

Que Dios ilumine tus pasos y te guie por el sendiro del bien ahora y siempre.

Te quieren, Gilberto, Reyna, Miroslava, y Jacqueline

Dear Danielle, “Dorothy” It seems like just yesterday when we were in grade school. We thought that nothing would change, and that we would always go to the same school. This year I learned that that isn’t true. We’ve turned nto young women we should be proud )f. Though we aren’t going to college ogether “always remember” that we are riends through thick and thin.

You have always been there for me, and you have always been my soul and inspiration. Life without you will be unique, but I will try to adjust.

Your daughter, t â&#x20AC;&#x2122;l Leslie

Daddy, So much has happened over the years, some good and some bad. No matter what, you still are m y father and I'll love you always. Things change, but I won't. I hope m y life will continue to have you in it, as well as all the things I hold dear.

Your daughter, Leslie

To M y Sister, Baby doll. I'll always think of you: your impossible style and your stubbornness. I hope you never lose sight of yourself. Even though your goal may seem vague, remember me (always practical and always looking to the future) and know that whatever your choices in life, you will be successful. Strive for the best and you'll get the best. Even though I'll be your guiding voice no matter where I go. Count on it!

Your sister, Leslie

Dear Amy, I love you. Don’t cry when you say good­ bye to your friends. Just have a great year and remember all the good times. Good luck and God bless you.

Love, Melony Amy, my daughter, your dreams of gradu­ ating are here. I know that you will achieve your aspirations in the future. May God al­ ways guide you and protect you from any harm. May He bring you health and happi­ ness always.

Love your father Vic Dearest Daughter, Since your birth I’ve watched you grow into a beautiful young lady. During all our struggles, you’ve managed to hold your head up high and go forward. You’ve prov­ en that you are indeed one special person. I love you dearly and I have no doubt that you will accomplish all you endeavor. From the bottom of my heart, please accept my blessing.

Love, Mom

Amy, Mi querida nieta gracias, muchas gracias por esa gran alegria que me has dado en la vida y le pido a Dios que sigas hacia adelante en tu vida y en tus estudios. Espero esa gran alegria mas de saber que has seguido estudiando para llegar donde tu deseas.

Por eso te admiro y te quiero porque se llegaras a ser lo que tu quieras. Te adoro.

Tu abuela, Carmen

To the greatest family, With your guidance and love, I have been able to get to where I’m at. It’s been long and hard, but worthwhile! Thank you all, especially you, Melony, you’ve made me proud.

Love, Amy

To my one and only Amy, As I reflect upon the past year and a half we’ve been together, I can’t help but realize that it was meant to be. Some say it was luck and others call it destiny. But since I don’t believe in luck or destiny, I know it was God. As I reflect upon my life without you, I felt as if it were empty and misguided. I often regret that I couldn’t have known you from the very beginning. I want you to know I intend to be with you from now until forever. Through good and bad, thick and thin. I’ll always be there for you.

Together we are an unbeatable combination, the perfect combination. We were brought together by God and daily my love for you grows stronger. I know there’s nothing you can’t do and I’m looking forward to helping you reach greatness and carry you in my arms in times of struggle and rejoice with you in times of joy.

Love always, Chris 147

IE CIIQUE For four years we have been together. We have taught each other

how to love and care for one another. We have always been there to help each other. We have grown closer through the years. We have learned what a friend really is. We have taught each other how to depend on each other as well as on ourselves. We have become a family that has grown together physically and emotionally and we will continue to grow in the years to come. May God bless us and continue to guide us in one way - together.

Dear M elanie, I know you cannot bear to read a lame letter, so I decided to write you a poem.

The problem is, however, that you like poems that rhyme. W ell I decided to try and write you a poem that rhymes. Okay?

Here it goes:

Since we were kids in elementary school, You never failed me; you were always cool.

You were you, and I was me.

We never had to act any differently to be free.

From all the heartache, the sorrow, the joy.

Our fights were never over a boy.

We always managed to keep our dignity.

There was never any room for pity.

You'll be successful and strong.

Because our futures will be long.

1hope that when we look back at this we can laugh.

At all our good memories from the past.

1 hope we continue making good memories in our near future.

Together, Our relationship.

Can never be severed.

Your Cousin And Very Best Friend, Leslie
