Life was different back then -- 1958 through 1962 was a much simpler time. Those were truly our --"Happy Days!"
We were a fortunate group of teenagers. There were no gangs or violence. The only concerns we had were who won the basketball or football game -- and of course, who was going to the “Pow-Wow” dance after the game.
Back then, everyone was important and everyone participated in their own way. However, Betty always participated much more than most.
1. Student Council Representative (years 1 and 2)
2. Student Council Secretary (year 3)

4. Cheerleader (year 2)

6. The “Chorus” (years 1, 2, and 3)
7. The “Troupers” (years 3 and 4)
8. The “Dolphins” Secretary (year 4)
That girl had had an abundance of energy – she could lead, cheer, sing, act, and swim! Everyone who knew Betty also knew that she had a kind spirit – a spirit that always radiated through her beautiful smile.
High School was a long time ago. It's just a memory now, but Betty will be a lasting part of those "Happy Days". Thanks for the memories, Betty -- and rest in eternal peace.
The Bremen High School Class of 1962 will miss you!
