however, I will never be without the
many, many wonderíiul niemories that
our fraternal order has made possible
fox' me to háve.
During the initial year of my reign,
I díd not fully grasp the true meaning
of our organization. It was only with
continued, close contact with mem-
bers that I was able to feel like I was
part of a continuously growing as-
sociation.
During the past four years, I háve
benefited much from the fraternal
spirit that is present in our brothers
and sisters. I hope that my successbr
will, likewise. share the many joys of
our trite fraternal spirit. This will be
possible only through “yoii-” ... the
lile, love, and spirit of the SPJST.
Thank you, my fraternal brothers
and sisters, for four of the most won-
derful years of my lile. May God al-
v/ays be with you.
Fraternally yours in the SPJST
Sandra Kay Watson,
“Miss SPJST” 1960-1964
