![]() |
Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
There is still
more sad news.
Anna
Parrous. mother of Arthur Parrous of VA, James Parrous of VA, Bessie
Parrous Evanchyk of VA, and Vivian Parrous Swanson of VA, passed away in
Hampton on Tuesday, October 5, 2010 at the age of
87.
Beyond the fact that she once owned a popular local restaurant, I think she had a stronger connection to Newport News High School itself, though I have not yet been able to confirm this fact.
From the Daily Press - 10/07/10:

To all of Anna's family. we
were so sorry to learn of your loss. Anna was such a kind and gentle
woman. My husband, Alex, and I would often go to the Westwood for lunch
during the time my husband's office was close by. She was always so warm
and welcoming. I hope that you will find comfort in knowing that Anna
was much loved. May her memory be eternal.

To The Parrous Family: I knew
Anna and she was so kind. The Girls, Anna and Olivia were so close. They
looked after one another, I guess they can continue to be together. My
prayer are with you at this sad time.

In You Rejoice
(O Tebi Radujetsja)
Liturgy of St. Basil - Tone 6
(English adaptation by Edward Sedor)
All creation rejoices in You,
O You who are full of grace,
the host of angels and all mankind.
O holy temple and spiritual paradise,
the glory of virgins,
from whom God was made flesh and became a little Child,
and is our God before all ages.
For He made You womb His throne,
and more spacious than the heavens.
All creation rejoices in You,
O You who are full of grace,
glory to You.
