DELORES WAS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE MALAKOFF STUDENT COUNCIL
DELORES WAS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE JOURNALISM CLASS. This is the journalism class of ’56-’57. This is the year the class was made up of Juniors and Seniors. Mrs. Cartlidge was our teacher. The purpose of the class was to publish the Tiger Rag. Back then it was done the hard way. One of Delores’s jobs was to “try” to read my writing (even I couldn’t at times) and type it for use in the Tiger Rag. My byline “Poll Parrot Sez” was something meant to be humorous. Once I was watching Delores trying to read my “hen-scratching” and she was laughing. I did not know if she was laughing at something I had written that was funny or if she was laughing at my spelling and grammar errors. COULD HAVE BEEN BOTH.
Since it wasn’t possible for me to attend her services at the Malakoff Baptist Church I submit this for someone very special. i wanted to share a portion of the memories of Delores that I fondly remember. May God Bless the family, and thank God for sharing Delores with us for a short while.
