The Future Was Their Gift. Little Did Any Of Them Know How Much Their Lives Would Change Within The Next Ten Years. None Of These Young Impetuous Students Could Have Imagined The Tragedy Of September 11 2001 Or Predict The Invasion Of Afghanistan And Iraq. Who Among These Enthusiastic Graduates Could Have Foreseen The Tragic New Orleans Flooding Or The Election Of The First African American United States President? Yet All This Came To Pass In Just Ten Short Years. This Is The Story Of How These Events Shaped The Lives Of A Few Members Of This Class And Their Parents. Some Found Love While Others Lost It Forever. It'S A Common Story But Honor Lies In The Telling.
