“O Come to Our Senior Prom”
By: Betty Martin

O Come to our Senior Prom
Remember those good old days,
The golden age of Hollywood
Will ever more be praised.
O come to our Senior Prom,
Trot out your dancing shoes,
Dust off your favorite tunes,
Remember the tuneful blues.
O come to our Senior Prom,
Just linger a little while
As we honor our treasured past
And seal it with a smile.


“The elderly are meant to be part of the social scene,
they are a part of God’s plan for the world, 
with their mission to fulfill,
their unique contribution to make.”

Saint John Paul II
