The 2003-04 Eagle YearBook
Theme
The 2003-04 Eagle Yearbook theme is based on a summary of events relating to students activities and
academic programs occurring dunng the year. The Eagle staff considered topics associated with construc-
tion and reconstruction on campus. Construction and improvements of buildings on campus had a large
impact on students. We trailed new paths around areas under construction, moved off campus instead of
living in dormitories and rode shuttles to and from school. Students driving to school found limited park-
ing , and inconveniences when classes were relocated to other buildings. At first, for some students and
faculty, this was a major problem. However, it later became an opportunity to improve campus appearance,
buildings and resources. The Yearbook staff viewed the construction/reconstruction of buildings as a sign
of growth. We are witnessing our great university on a path for future development. Pause for a minute
and review this annual yearbook of pictures and stories collected by the Eagle Yearbook Staff and volun-
teers.
There are many new buildings and campus areas under construction and old buildmgs facing reconstruc-
tion. Have you seen the renovations and new addition to the B.N. Duke Auditorium? Renovations and
improvements are on-going for Annie Daye Shepard Residence Hall, Willis Commerce Building. Shepard
House, Edmonds Classroom Building, and McLean Residence Hall. Workers are busy in these buildings
planning to complete them soon. Other buildings scheduled for improvements are the Fine Arts Building,
Farrison- Newton Communications, Alexander-Dunn Buildings, Eagleson Residence. New Residence I and
II, Latham Residence, Rush Residence Halls, Pearson Cafeteria, and James E. Shepard Library.
Reconstruction/ renovations of old buildings are not the only things that is happening on campus. New
structures being built are the Baynes Residence Hall, Graduate Student Housing, and a huge Science
Complex on the old Hillside High School site. Throughout campus electrical upgrade, steam line
repairs. and health and safety repairs are being made. New landscape is being implemented and students
are thankful that the plan includes new benches, tables and chairs placed in significant locations for us to
use and a place to hang out.
Improvements are on the rise in university departments. Administration and Athletics departments are
two areas that have been remodeled. Several vice chancellors have been hired to assist with administration.
Dr. Sulayman Clark was named the Vice Chancellor for Institutional Advancement, and Mr Roland Gaines
was named the Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs in September 2003. Two areas of the Athletics depart-
ment were upgraded. Roderick Broadway was named the football coach in January of 2003. Students are
expecting the new coach to reverse the past losing streak and produce a winning team in football. William
Hayes was named the new Athletic Director in June 2003. His contribution should prove invaluable for
competitive sports at NCCU.
There are also changes in departments and schools around the university too. For example, the School
of Business' programs and curricula are being reconstructed to receive accreditation. Students in the school
are changing their appearance one day out of the week. Instead of doning the usual school apparel, on
Thursdays, you will see business majors dressed for "Corporate Attire Day."
The Physical Education Department's Park and Recreation Management curriculum received accredita-
tion from the The National Recreation and Parks Association and the America Associations for Leisure and
Recreation. Dr Virginia Politano (Chair), Dr. Shirley Harper. Dr. Jesse Mann, and Dr. Robert Stiefvater in
October 2003 defended the curriculum.
The North Carolina Central University students have pulled together to help each other out during this
transitional time in the university's history. Whether it is giving a classmate a ride after class or driving
across town in order to have a study group with someone who does not have transportation. We have
worked together to enhance not only ourselves but our university as well. We must remember that despite
the changes that arc occurring within and on the campus we must remain steadfast and endeavor to perse-
vere.

scholariy publications in the field of health education for

It is to these women, just a few of the many pioneers of
our University, that we are indebted. We honor them and the
work they accomplished with this 2004 Eagle Yearbook.

Educating Newcomers
Star, By Tish EduariJs
Changes are a way of life, and many fresh-
men have found this to be true. One
change which most students have to deal
with is the responsibility. When they go off
to college and arrive at NCCU adjustments
have to made. The positive aspect of
NCCU is once you are here the transition is
not difficult as you thought. But at others
colleges, it can be an emotional roller
coaster. The majority of freshmen agree
that college is very different from high
school. College is an excellent time for
meeting new, lifelong friends. Freshmen
must now realize that they are in charge of
their own destiny. In college no one is
going to be watching over you to see if you
go to class, file for financial aid, or walk
you by the hand to social events. In college
class begins on time, deadlines must be
met, and attitudes are dealt with on a daily
basis.
While learning to adjust to an increased
workload many freshmen also learn to bal-
ance their time between school and other
activities.

PImlos Br Ramon Hill
Students must learn the effectiveness
of time management to help concentrate
on multi-tasking. As a freshman, you
may be faced with managing your lime
among sports, social clubs, finding a
job and school work.
The first day of school is a big day
for everyone, but for freshmen, mixed
emotions can run wild. Being the
youngest and also the majority of the
student population on campus can cause
freshmen to be nervous, yet at the same
time, excited.
Although they did not realize it at
first, but coming to NCCU was a new
and exciting experience filled with get-
ting your freedom! Many students like
the idea of more freedom at school, and
being around a more mature group of
peers. Yet, many freshmen complained
about having an increased amount of
both class work and homework. For
most freshman, studying and homework
are their top priorities.

They don't discriminate; women are

Tarhell Towing to claim this car!!!
The Parking Zone
Tish Echvanh
You oversleep one morning because you
were up until midnight studying for a test.
You rush to get to school on time. Just when
you think you have made it, you find your-
self stuck in the middle of a line of cars.
When you finally get to school, you must
search through the crevices of the parking
lot in order to find a parking space. You
can't find one. So, you are forced to journey
to the depths of the dungeon and park in a
space that is miles away from the school
(don't have class all day and have to go to
your car at NIGHT!). As you are running
toward the school you hear the humming of
a tow truck. You are in the zone, the PARK-
ING ZONE!!!
As if all this is not bad enough, you had to
kick out $100.00 at the beginning of the
school year in order to pay for your parking
decal. This brings up the question whether
or not students receive their money's worth
when purchasing a parking decal?
Many students on the campus have voiced
their concerns about the parking situation.
Their reactions may be mixed, but more than
95% of them feel that the price for parking
is too high. Few students understand the
benefits and go along with paying for park-
ing at NCCU. Rumors have persisted
throughout the year about campus parking at
NCCU and surrounding universities (Duke,
NC State, and UNO.
Full security, traffic control and sufficient
parking spaces are suggestions that students
want included with the cost of parking.
These services will probably never happen.

BLOOD DRIVE
Blood Drive
Story by Dedi Ramsey
NCCU and the American Red
Cross of Durham host blood drives
on our campus each year. These events
happen at least twice a semester The
blood drives are normally located in
the Alfonso Elder Student Union.
Both students and the surrounding
communities come to give blood and
bone marrow.
The Red Cross also offers free
sickle cell testing to those that
wish to take it. In the Dimensions
of Learning course, you receive no
more than three community service
hours or up to fifteen hours, if one
were to also write a paper about
the experience and usage of the
blood. Not all students participate
in the drive just for the service
hours. Some, use it as a way of
giving back to community.

"a day in line at a.e. student"
by Lynice Hannah
At the same two times each year , an eruption
of students occurs. No, not Chicken Wednesday
or a homecoming event, but REFUND CHECK
TIIVIE!! This happens usually in early September
and also in January. Students from all disciplines are
wrapped around the Bursars office waiting with
two forms of identification, with one question in
mind: "Out of all the money I pay Central, what
do they owe me?" This year the refund check
line was moved to the Student Union. The lines
were much better. Here students formed two lines
depending on the first letter of your last name
and with about four computers and staff in opera-
tion, made for a faster, smoother transition. The
long lines of students who showed up and
received checks were sure to leave campus with
one thing in mind. They are going to make South
Point and North Gate Malls very happy. Just like
you have Homecoming and Chicken Wednesday,
you must wear a special outfit. You must have an out-
fit for, "I got my refund check." This is one event
that happens each year that the average student
will not miss!!!
G-L
.1
Now there are students, because
of paperwork difficulties, do not
have the luxury of standing in
long (one to two hour) lines wait-
ing for a refund check. These peo-
ple face the paper work blues. Most
of the time, the paperwork blues
comes from lack of communication
or a glitch in the systems. No
matter what the cause may be,
you still have to wait almost two
weeks before the paperwork is
done.
But when the check is released
into your hands, there is an over-
whelming rush through your body.
Whether your check amount is big
or small, it's yours to use howev-
er you please. Supposedly it is
meant to buy books and college
supplies, but that rarely happens.
All types of ideas run through
your head, a few pair of shoes,
new clothes, anything that you
don't have in your possession at
that very moment.

Michael Page
First Black Board
Chairman
for DPS
Michael Page, director of
NCCU United Christian
Campus Ministry was
elected chairman in 2003
for the Durham School
Board (DPS). One ot his
objectives while leading the board is reconstructing the character of board
members. As the school district's first black board chairman, all Rev.
Page really wants from his fellow board is to get along. "If I had a magic
wand. 1 would wave that wand so that board members would work coop-
eratively — whether we agree or disagree," Page reveals. Given the past
years of acrimony and racial divisions, he now faces one of the toughest
task in Durham, directing the board.
Page is insisting that all board members stay focused on academics. He
is setting high standards for the board while pushing for their full cooper-
ation. The administrators, faculty, staff and students are supporting Rev.
Pa>jc and wish him success in his tenure directing the DPS.

My Odyssey of Change
When I began my freshman year at North Carohna Central University in the fail of 2000,
I never dreamed I would be Miss NCCU. My personal odyssey has taken me from the early
days of freshman innocence to a plateau of genuine maturity. Along the way, change has
been a constant. I have grown in ways I never expected. The experience of serving the
student body as Miss Freshman, and now as Miss NCCU has provided me with outstanding
opportunities to develop as a student leader and a human being.
The academic rigor of my major and other courses challenged and stretched my intellectual
curiosities. The socialization process has given me new appreciation for cultural refinement.
Events and activities in which I have participated or witnessed have given me respect for the
diversity that is ours. The gifts and talents of others have provided me with needed inspiration
and enrichment.
Odyssey of change has been a great source of pride and personal humility in that I was chosen
to represent the Eagle family as Miss NCCU. What a joy and privilege it has been to spread
my wings and fly with each of you as the supporting cast! To be granted the honor of serving
in this capacity has been the highlight of my journey Know, that my sense of gratitude towards
you is lasting and eternal, and the debt I owe to my Alma Mater will never fade nor falter.
With the Pride of and Eagle,
O^. ^~^0J^

It has been more than a pleasure serving the NCCU community as Mr. North Carohna Central
University for the school year 2003-04, Being Mr. NCCU has given me the opportunity to display
a positive black male role, which is important for young African- American men today. My image
on campus reveals that black males are capable of achievement.
During my time as Mr. NCCU, 1 have learned a great deal. First, I've found out that life is what
you make out of it. You get out of it exactly what you put in it. Also, I learned that all goals are
attainable; obstacles only show up when you take your mind off your goal. And lastly, be open to
ideas (that will not get you into trouble) and think before you make a decision. A mind is like a
parachute; it works best when open.
This has been a growing experience, a wonderful adventure, and a great time that I wish would
last forever. 1 would like to thank God and everyone who has made this possible for me. I would
like to especially thank the student body for their continued support.
Always remember that truth and service is the light and mission of North Carolina Central University.
Fly like an Eagle, because the eagle is no common ordinary barnyard fowl! With what I've
experienced here, 1 will fly like no other.

NCCU Spirit
When Chancellor James H. Animons went on the road to recruit North Carolina's top students in March, he
used a new recruitment tool to help convince students that NCCU is the place for them. Rather than lecture
on the factors that make NCCU one of the premier institutions in the nation, he simply handed the floor over
to The NCCU Spirit. This performing group of dynamic students enlightened the audience of future college
students through song and dance. The NCCU Spirit's goal is to provide information while engaging the audi-
ence in a show that will leave their viewers ready to fill out applications to come to NCCU.

Alpha Kappa Alpha
Sorority, Inc.
Alpha Chi Chapter
^iftm
In 1908, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority became America's first Greek-letter organization establisiied
by Black college women. The sorority roots date back to Howard University, in Washington, D.C. Ethel
Hedgeman Lyle of St. Louis, Missouri conceived idea for the sorority formation . She viewed the Sorority as
an instrument for enriching the social and intellectual aspects of college life by providing mental stimulation
through interaction with friends and associates. Through the years, however. Alpha Kappa Alpha's function
has become more complex. After her incorporation as a perpetual body in 1913, Alpha Kappa Alpha gradu-
ally branched out and became the channel through which selected college-trained women improved the
socioeconomic conditions in their city, state, nation, and the world.
In a world in which materialism is pervasive, and technology and competition have decreased the need for
collaboration and cooperation, it is critical to have an association that cuts across racial, international, physi-
cal, and social barriers to help individuals and communities develop and maintain constructive relationships
with others. Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority is that vital organization.
Alpha Kappa Alpha is a sisterhood composed of women who have consciously chosen this affiliation as a
means of self-fulfillment through volunteer service. Alpha Kappa Alpha cultivates and encourages high
scholastic and ethical standards; promotes unity and friendship among college women; alleviates problems
concerning girls and women; maintains a progressive interest in college life; and serves all mankind through
a nucleus of more than 170,000 women in the United States, the Caribbean, Europe, and Africa.
Candidacy for membership into Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority is open to women of high ethical and
scholastic standards who are pursuing or have completed courses leading to a degree in an accredited col-
lege or university. The official headquarters is in Chicago, Illinois.

Since its founding on December 4. 1906. Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. has supplied voice and vision
to the struggle of African- Americans and people of color around the world.
Alpha Phi Alpha, the first intercollegiate Greek-letter fraternity established for African-Americans, was founded
at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York by seven college men who recognized the need for a strong bond of
Brotherhood among African descendants in this country. The visionary founders, known as the ".lewels" of the
Fraternity, are Henry Arthur Callis, Charles Henry Chapman, Eugene Kinckle Jones, George Biddle Kelley,
Nathaniel Allison Murray. Robert Harold Ogle, and Vertner Woodson Tandy.
The Fraternity initially served as a study and support group for minority students who faced racial prejudice, both
educationally and socially, at Cornell. The Jewel founders and early leaders of the Fraternity succeeded in laying a
firm foundation for Alpha Phi Alpha's principles of scholarship, fellowship, good character, and the uplifting of
humanity,
Alpha Phi Alpha chapters were developed at other colleges and universities, many of them historically black insti-
tutions, soon after the founding at Cornell. While continuing to stress academic excellence among its members.
Alpha also recognized the need to help correct the educational, economic, political, and social injustices faced by
African-Americans.
Alpha Phi Alpha has long stood at the forefront of the African-American community's fight for civil rights
through leaders such as: W.E.B. DuBois, Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., Edward Brooke, Martin Luther King, Jr.,
Thurgood Marshall, Andrew Young. William Gray. Paul Robeson, and many others.

Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity was formed the night of January 5, 191 1, on the campus of Indiana University at
Bloomington, Indiana. The fraternity is enjoyed by college men everywhere, regardless of their color, religion or national
origin. Kappa Alpha Psi is proud that the Constitution has never contained any clause which either excluded or suggest-
ed the exclusion of a man from membership merely because of his color, creed, or national origin. The Constitution of
Kappa Alpha Psi is predicated upon, and dedicated to, the principles of achievement through a truly democratic
Fraternity.
Chartered and incorporated originally under the laws of the State of Indiana as Kappa Alpha Nu on May 15, 1911, the
name was changed to Kappa Alpha Psi on a resolution offered and adopted at the Grand Chapter in December 1914.
This change became effective April 15, 1915, on a proclamation by the then Grand Polemarch, Elder Watson Diggs.
Thus, the name acquired a distinctive Greek letter symbol and Kappa Alpha Psi thereby became a Greek letter Fraternity
in every sense of the designation.
From its inception, and for the next six years. Brother Diggs served as the Grand Polemarch of Kappa Alpha Psi
Fraternity. Through his leadership and indefatigable application, augmented by the efforts of O.K. Armstrong, and .lohn
M. Lee, who comprised the remainder of the original Grand Board of Directors, the infant Fraternity was guided through
the most perilous years of its life. These three men are a credit to the organization survival.

On Friday evening, November 17, 1911, three Howard University undergraduate students, with the assistance of
their faculty adviser, gave birth to the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. This event occurred in the office of biology
Professor Ernest E. Just, the faculty adviser, in the Science Hall (now known as Thirkield Hall). The three liberal arts
students were Edgar A. Love, Oscar J. Cooper and Frank Coleman. From the initials of the Greek phrase meaning
"friendship is essential to the soul," the name Omega Psi Phi was derived. The phrase was selected as the motto.
Manhood, scholarship, perseverance and uplift were adopted as cardinal principles. A decision was made regarding the
design for the pin and emblem, and thus ended the first meeting of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity .
The next meeting was conducted on November 23, 191 1. Edgar Love became the first Grand Basileus (National
President). Cooper and Coleman were selected Grandkeeper of the Records (National Secretary) and Grandkeeper of
Seals (National Treasurer), respectively. Eleven Howard University undergraduate men were selected as charter mem-
bers.
Alpha Chapter was organized with fourteen charter members on December 15, 1911. Love, Cooper and Coleman
were elected the chapters first Basileus, Keeper of Records, and Keeper of Seals, respectively.
Currently, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity has initiated more than 130,000 members and has over 500 chapters in forty-
four states, the District of Columbia, Europe, Asia, Africa, the Bahamas, Virgin Islands and Panama. Tau Psi Chapter
on NCCU s campus is a vital force which enables and inspires the maximum accomplishment on its members.

Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. was founded at Howard University in Washington, D.C., January 9, 1914,
by three young African-American male students. The founders. Honorable A. Langston Taylor, Honorable Leonard F.
Morse, and Honorable Charles 1. Brown, organized a Greek letter fraternity that would truly exemplify the ideals of
brotherhood scholarship, and service.
The founders created an organization that viewed itself as "a part of" the general community rather than "apart
from" the general community. They believed that each potential member should be judged by his own merits rather
than his family background or affluence. ..without regard of race, nationality, skin tone or texture of hair. The fraterni-
ty exists today as part of an even greater brotherhood which would be devoted to the "inclusive we" rather than the
"exclusive we."
From its inception, the Founders also conceived Phi Beta Sigma as a mechanism to deliver services to the general
community. Rather than gaining skills to be utilized exclusively for themselves and their immediate families, the
founders of Phi Beta Sigma held a deep conviction that they should return their newly acquired skills to the commu-
nities from which they had come. This deep conviction was mirrored in the Fraternity's motto, "Culture For Service
and Service For Humanity".
Today, eighty-seven years later. Phi Beta Sigma has blossomed into an international organization of leaders. No
longer a single entity, the Fraternity has now established the Phi Beta Sigma Educational Foundation, the Phi Beta
Sigma Housing Foundation, the Phi Beta Sigma Federal Credit Union, and the Phi Beta Sigma Charitable Outreach
Foundation. Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., founded in 1920 with the assistance of Phi Beta Sigma, is the sister organi-
zation. No other fraternity and sorority is constitutionally bound as Sigma and Zeta. We both enjoy and foster a
mutually supportive relationship.

Zeta Phi Beta Sorority began January 16, 1920, on the belief that sorority elitism and socializing should not
overshadow the real mission of a progressive organization. Zeta Phi Beta address societal mores, ills, prejudices,
poverty, and health concerns. The sorority was conceived by five coeds at Howard University. The women were
Arizona Cleaver, Myrtle Tyler, Viola Tyler, Fannie Pettie, and Pearl Neal. These women known in the sorority as the
five pearls, dared to depart from the traditional coalitions for black women. The sorority was predicated on the pre-
cepts of scholarship, service, sisterly love and finer womanhood. It was the idea of the founders that the sorority
would reach college women in all parts of the country who were sorority mined and desired to follow the founding
principles of the organization. Viola Tyler was often quoted. . ." hi the ideal collegiate situation there is Zeta in a girl
regardless of race, creed, or color, who has high standards and principles. She has a good scholarly average and an
active interest in all things that she undertakes to accomplish."

RECONSTRUCTION OF A UNIVERSITY AND A MAN
On August 17, 2000, 1 entered North Carolina Central University (NCCU) during
the Week of Welcome (WOW ) and knew immediately that I had chosen the best University
to pursue my education. I was a recent high school graduate who was eager to approach
college life head-on. However, unknown to me, there would be lots of disappointments,
mistakes and unwise decisions before I could think about graduation. Like the Annie Day
Shepard Dormitory, 1 had a solid structure, but I was in need of a renovation to become a
whole person; a person who could be respected, accomplished and who could become an
Eagle alumnus.
With the help of many administrators and friends on the NCCU campus, I was
able to rid myself of the immaturity and inexperience remaining from the years of living
at home with that ever-present parental guidance. I have emerged as a brand new, or bet-
ter yet, a completely reconstructed adult. My greatest accomplishment has been serving
as the Editor-in-Chief of the Eagle Yearbook for the past two years. The "Yearbook
Construction Staff" enabled me to master the hammers and nails and overcome the
asbestos, mold and mildew to produce a yearbook that is worthy of all NCCU students.
We deserve not only the best yearbook, but the best quality construction and revi-
talization of our campus. The yearbook staff and I tried to present the events that took
place this year so that you may have a record of the wonderful changes that are happening
to "dear ole NCCU" and to ourselves. We, as students, are not so unlike the old buildings
undergoing renovation. We are shedding an old structure and will emerge as upstanding,
intelligent, well -educated adults; proud to be a part of or graduating from North
Carolina Central University.
It has been a remarkable and rewarding learning experience at NCCU. On May 1,
as I walk across the stage at O'Kelley-Riddick Stadium, I will resemble our new dormito-
ries and Science Complex. Like steel, I will stand tall, proud and strong.
Thanks go to the following individuals for my success and achievements; Melvin J.
Carver, Roland Gaines, Claudette Free, Annie Bennett, Jamila Davenport, Don Luse,
Debra Watkins, Allana Smith, Thurman Prescott, Jr., Constance Roberson, Michael
Roberson, Sonya Scott, Vanda Davis, and last but not least my family, at home and at
NCCU. Without them, I would resemble the steam billowing from Campus Drive, just
blowing in the wind.
Thank you NCCU and may you always continue to make bricks from mortar and
mold children into adults.

"Make A Difference"
The one certain thing we can say
About an individual human life
Is that it will eventually end.
Death is certain.
And the only thing we have control over
Is the manner of our lives while we are here.
Never hesitate to tell someone you admire them.
Never restrain your impulse to express your love. I^Bl
Be unstinting in your devotion to those around you. ^1
Where you can bring knowledge and reason and light.
Do not withhold your effort.
)
Where there is sadness, bring joy. j
Where there is hurt, bring healing. ;
Where there is despair, bring hope. I
Never rest, never tire, j
Never fail to struggle for the betterment of all
Then, when your time comes, you can say, ;
"My life made a difference" \

Alma Mater
Dear Old N.C.C.
The sloping hills, the verdant green,
The lovely blossoms' beauteous sheen
Surround our college proud and gay,
Where wave our colors, Maroon and Gray,
What matters it how far we roam.
Our thoughts will oft return to home.
And hearts will e'er be true to thee,
Our Alma Mater, N.C.C.
Refrain:
Then Rah! Rah! Rah!
For our colors so gay!
Dear old N.C.C.'s Maroon and Gray;
Thy Sons and Daughters will honor thee.
Dear Old N.C.C.
II
We've gathered here to fit our lives.
As from the darkness light revives:
So let us hail, both night and day.
Our glorious colors. Maroon and Gray.
We'll ever love and honor thee.
For thou hast taught us loyalty
Then let our watchword, "Service" be
To Alma Mater, N.C.C.
Ill
You send us forth with hearts of love
So like a blessing from above.
And from the path we'll never stray.
Our dear Alma Mater, Maroon and Gray
We'll work and fight, we'll win our way.
When duty calls, we shall obey.
And may we e're return to thee.
Our Alma Mater, N.C.C.

Congratulation Latish,
I love you and I am so proud of you. You made me a very proud Mom from the time you were a
baby. I was as proud of you as I was my first born. Shantel. You have grown and blossomed thru
the years. Today, you are my first college graduate and that means a lot to me. Whoever said a
daughter is more than a friend was right. Sure friends are fun to run around with, together we can
try out new things, different styles and new ways of thinking. Even best friends don't really know
each other the way a Mom and a daughter does.
With you it is no use pretending to be happier than I am or being nonchalant. When something
really big happens you know where I come from and my hidden feelings. Why? It is because you
know the real me through and through. That means we know how to push each other's buttons
better than anybody. It also means we both know we have a place to go where we will always be
accepted and under-
stood. I can't imagine
life without YOU! I am
so glad we have each
other.
