Hall of Fame - flashback

I was cleaning out an external hard drive and happened upon this screenshot of a Facebook post by American High Class of 84 President Michael Shelley. I understand the Hall of Fame wall is no longer up at American High. It was hard then to grasp how much time would pass before the school would run out of space lest the entire building be covered in photographs. I am grateful that I was at American between 1981 and 1985, or less than ten years after the school opened. Being there allowed me and others to see the generous attempt at capturing the faces and names of some of the people who walked through those school doors via this wall. If memory serves, it is in Central Plaza where a skylight likely offered enough sun in to make the photos fade faster. My photo is right under the words Hall of Fame. To my right is fellow Class of 85ers then-Kim Andrews (Lang) and to her right, Kaylois Henry. Oh, what memories. Click on the photo to make it bigger. My four years at American were some of the happiest of my life. I see my faded photograph and those of others in this screenshopt, and I remember the past joy and sadness. Time flies. Some of us are here. Others are not. My brother Duane Garcia Andrews who wasin the Class of 84 passed away in January 2023, or a year or so ago. Next year will be the fortieth anniversary of my high school class graduation. Wow! I celebrate my 57th birthday today remembering my brother, my classmates, staff and teachers. Hope everyone is well.
