My dad left Temple High School (Temple TX) in Sept. of 1942 to sign up for the Army. In 2002 He "finally" received his HS diploma along with around 500 other regular graduates of Temple HS under a similar program created by the State of Texas. It was so incredible to see the great spirit and hear the words of encouragement these teen had for my dad. My dad still feels that was one of the biggest days of his life and I feel so blessed to still have him around.
