I said, I want to tell you something. She said, You can tell me tomorrow. I had never told her how much I loved her. She was my sister.

There was never a right time to say it. It was always unnecessary. I thought about waking her. But it was unnecessary. There would be other nights. And how can you say I love you to someone you love?

Here is the point of everything I have been trying to tell you. It's always necessary. I love you.

Dear Mom and Dad,

Thank you so much for all the love, support, and wisdom you've given me, especially in helping me develop my faith. You two are the best role models I

Dear Teachers

(especially Mr. Geier, Ms. Watson, Ms. Hamilton and Ms. Davis),

Dear Friends,

we were watching high quality movies like "Queen of the Damned", having near death experiences on class trips, celebrating every special occasion and average occasion at Big Boy's, doing experimental baking, writing a Spanish musical called dancing in the makeup room, or watching

Lifetime at your grandma's house, it was a blast. I love you all and thank God for bringing you into my life. I've seriously met some of the most genuinely kind people ever while here at Poly.

Thank you for your dedication and for sharing your passions with me. You've given me the tools I need to be an independent thinker and helped make me a better person.

Love,

To My Family: "Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family." I know I don't say it even close to enough, but I'll never stop appreciating how much you do and have done for me. Everything good about me I owe to you. I love you all so much.

To My Friends: "Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive." Thanks to you, I have those moments when I remember something we've done together and can't help but smile - regardless of where I am or what I'm doing. You guys are the best!

Alexis: No one is stronger, more driven and, above all, more talented than you are. You are beautiful in every way, and I have loved every second that we have shared together. You will always be my princess.

Will: You're exactly like me; that is the greatest compliment I can give somone. Seriously, I get along with you better than anyone I know. We laugh together, compete with each other, and we understand one another. I'm so glad we shared my last year of high school together.

John-John: JC, you are the craziest kid in the world, and I wouldn't have you any other way. There is something about you that just makes me laugh everytime we are together.

Tom and Richard, thanks for putting up with me for 6 years. I can't thank you enough. To the seniors: you guys are so amazing, I don't even know where to start. And to those techies we 're leaving behind: it's your turn now. Make it awesome . And finally, to Chris well, that's most of you Bring me cookies. Love you ALL.

"Does everyone here grow the way you do?" asked Milo "Almost everyone," replied Alec, and then he stopped a moment and thought. "Now and then, though, does begin to grow differently. Instead of down, his feet grow up toward the sky. But we do our best to discourage awkward things like that."

"What happens to them?" insisted Milo.

"Oddly enough, they often grow ten times the size of everyone else," said Alec thoughtfully, "And I've heard that they walk among the stars."

"I have only two men out of my company and 20 out of some other company. We need support, but it is almost suicide to try to get it here as we are swept by machine gun fire and a constant barrage is on us. I have no one on my left and only a few on my right. I will hold." - 1st Lieutenant Clifton B. Cates, USMC, Belleau Wood, 19 July 1918

2. Never expect the Spanish Inquisition!

Brian,

When you were 7, you regularly volunteered to play goalie as kids 5-7 years older ripped shots at you from less than 10 feet away. Looking back now, I cannot overstate how awesome that is. That you were so good at stopping these shots comes as no surprise, given how you have never ceased to amaze me with your success. Whether with school, sports, or friends, I'm so proud of you and all you have accomplished I can't wait to see what the future holds. Congratulations!

I've no doubt you'll continue to do awesome things in college, and you'd better call me every now and then and tell me about them! Congrats!

Ms. Stefansson' s dedication and service to Poly for the last twenty-two years as librarian will be remembered with the utmost respect for her genuinely kind character. On a daily basis , she shows not only her willingness to help and make time for students, but even more importantly her true desire to listen . Her patience with last minute research projects and "fairy godmother-like" care for each student's welfare has made the library a friendly and special retreat for a student's busy day. Says one student, "I am sincerely grateful for all of the books she has recommended and bought for my personal enjoyment." Ms. Stefansson, the Poly community appreciates all that you do and the time and effort you put into making the library a lovable and accessible place. We will miss you Ms. Stefansson, as you have been fundamental to our experience here at Poly. Whatever your future brings, we wish you well.
