It is with much regret that I announce the passing of Dr. Veronica Evanson Bernard. Ms. Evanson as she was known to the many Antigua Girls High School students passed on peacefully earlier this evening having reached 80 years old. Dr. Evanson Bernard was ill for some time but died comfortably at home in New York. To her family we extend our condolences. As Antigua Girls High graduates we mourn the loss of a teacher and scholar whose early influence on our intellectual and academic careers will cause her to live on for many more years to come. Thank you, Ms Evanson. Your work is done. May you rest in joy and peace.

Psalms: Powerful, Passionate, Poetry
"By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
Yea we wept, when we remembered Zion
But the wicked carried us away to captivity
Required of us a song.
How can we sing a song, in a strange land."
Psalm 137

INVITATION TO JOIN AGHS OLD GIRLS CYBER CELEBRATION
An Invitation to an AGHS Cyber Celebration
Part III
Our lives, our voices, our reflections, our memories are precious
Part of the gift that makes being human wondrous
May we AGHS Old Girls
Use our modern options and privileges
And from diverse places and far flung spaces
Renew childhood bonds with each other
Connecting our memories, our voices, our thoughts
Our yearnings to find out about and care for each other
While we still have time to share with one another.
So we by communicating here
A few of our thoughts, our images, our memories
Can signal that at this time
We care about the AGHS girls with whom
We shared so much of our childhood and life’s earlier lessons
Lessons that have helped to bring each of us to places where we now thrive
From where we watch new generations of AGHS girls negotiate their lives
Where we hope that they too will be able to take pride
In their accomplishments
As they journey towards the end of their life’s ride.
