Hi Carol:
... I wanted you to know that we lost another member
of our class. I work part-time at Peninsula Funeral Home in Newport News
and was sad to see the name of Sammy Lipes on the schedule when I went
to work this afternoon. I was in elementary school,
Woodrow Wilson, with Sammy and all
through N.N.H.S. with him. Everyone liked
him. He and
Oh, Fred, I'm so very sorry to hear this! I often
wondered what Sammy did following graduation. You have my deepest
condolences on the loss of your classmate.

The Strife Is O'er, the Battle Done
Text: Anonymous Latin; translated by Francis Pott (1832-1909)
Music: Giovanni P. da Palestrina; arranged by W.H. Monk (1823-1889)
Tune: VICTORY, Meter: 888 with Alleluias
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
The strife is o'er, the battle done,
the victory of life is won;
the song of triumph has begun.
Alleluia!
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
The powers of death have done their worst,
but Christ their legions hath dispersed:
let shout of holy joy outburst.
Alleluia!
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
The three sad days are quickly sped,
he rises glorious from the dead:
all glory to our risen Head!
Alleluia!
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
He closed the yawning gates of hell,
the bars from heaven's high portals fell;
let hymns of praise his triumphs tell!
Alleluia!
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
Lord! by the stripes which wounded thee,
from death's dread sting thy servants free,
that we may live and sing to thee.
Alleluia!
