    Madeline Craig Libolt - Class of 1945 - As per her sister's obituary ( Shirley Craig Enkler - Class of 1943 http://www.nfayearbooks.com/mboard3/msg/6218.html  ), Madeline has passed.

The house number fifty-four
Always has welcome written on the door
Alas the beautiful lady there is no more

She sailed away to Heaven's Gate
Her smiling Irish face could not wait
To share the joy and laughter on her plate

Full of wisdom and blarney
She's a one woman army
With sisters Shirley and Chick

At dances they were quick
Three lovely girls of Nora and Les
The Hudson Valley did bless

Madeline has winged above
To spread and share her love
As sure as shamrocks grow in Ireland

With her brother Jim strutting high and grand
While pipers play "Wearing of the Green"
Heaven now has the loveliest Colleen

To my sweetheart who left too soon
All my love, all my life and in eternity

Love, Jim
