they gather for their 50-year high school reunion.
  I am proud to congratulate all of this class as they bring old 
friends together and celebrate everything they have accomplished since 
their graduation 50 years ago.
  As students at M.B. Smiley, these individuals were instilled with the 
values of a strong work ethic, leadership, and service which enabled 
them to succeed in whatever endeavor they chose later in life. This has 
been made evident by the many educators, doctors, lawyers, community 
leaders, and elected officials that have gone on to excel in their 
personal and professional lives. Through their dedication and 
commitment, many have left a lasting impact on their communities and 
the people around them--ensuring the preservation of the strong legacy 
of M.B. Smiley High School.
  After graduation, numerous young men and women from the class of `68 
went on to serve in the U.S. Armed Forces during the Vietnam War--with 
some paying the ultimate sacrifice for our country. These great 
individuals selflessly fulfilled their duty and defended our Nation in 
a time of war, and we thank them for their steadfast service and 
dedication to country.
  As this group of former students once again joins together to meet 
with their fellow classmates from the class of 1968, I am proud to 
recognize this momentous occasion and wish them the best as they 
celebrate their 50-year reunion.
