The GOLDEN Diploma
Class of 1959


Twenty members of the Class of 1959, this year's "Golden Girls" processed in the graduation line with the Class of 2009. They were seated, as guests of honor, in the sanctuary. During the graduation ceremonies, each Golden Girl received a golden diploma to commemorate the day. Lunch at the Desmond (for 30 members of the '59 Class) followed and then a tour of Villa Maria. The memorable day was topped off with cocktails and dinner at Baxter's in Malvern. A good day was had by all! Interesting to note that one graduate traveled from Peru to attend, 2 from North Carolina, 1 from Florida and 1 from Arizona.

So, Class of 1960,
start making your plans.
