Ringing true
As secretary at Geneva High School, Helen Patrick is certainly on the inside when it comes to the goings on at the institution of learning.
However, now she’s looking for some outside help.
“ I am working on the moving of the bell that is presently in front of the old high school and cannot locate any timeframe that it was moved to its present location,” she said. “I t must have been in the summer of 1979. If anyone has any pictures or information, I would appreciate hearing from you.”
The bell has become sort of a crusade for her.
“I have been able to follow the bell from its origin and each move it made but have not been able to find anything about its move to the Sherman Street building.
“Thanks for any help I can get!”
Two thumbs up!
Mrs. Patrick echoed our thoughts on the DVD compiled by Norm Potter, a 1982 Geneva graduate, titled “Home Field.”
The project chronicles the history of the Geneva High School football program.
“I have seen the video and it is better than spectacular,” she said. “Norm came over and with my husband, Don, spent a good amount of time rummaging through Don’s memory and our yearbooks... we have a ton).”
She couldn’t say enough about how “Home Field” moved her.
