Class of 1952. Barbara Wolsey. Y'ld Cat Newspaper, Chorus, Notre Maison, Fauvines, Soph Class Social Chair. Married Dean E. Wilcox. ~ ~ ~ ~ Memories flood back to me as I think about the new Academy library being opened soon. I am so happy the Education Building was spared from demolition and made into a beautiful and useful reminder of historic lower campus of BYU. I was a student at B.Y. High School from 1946 until 1952, so many of my formative experiences were obtained there. All of the buildings were old even then, but we weren't concerned about that. Most of the high schools in the area were old at that time. I remember hearing that they were planning a new Provo High School and that we would all have to go there. I was glad it didn't happen until after I left, because I loved B.Y. High. I attended a speech class in the lower level of College Hall. In that same level were practice rooms for BYU music students. The upper level was an assembly hall where most of B.Y. High's drama productions were held, along with all our student assemblies and Jr. High graduations. I fell in love with Thornton Wilder's play, "Our Town" when it was performed by B.Y. High students in 1947. My friends and I participated in many assemblies on that same stage. I attended a few classes in the Education Building -- bookkeeping, eugenics, journalism, chemistry and chorus. There was a small bookstore there where could buy pencils, notebooks, etc., and occasionally a candy bar. Most of the candy bars cost 5 cents, but once in awhile we could afford to buy a "Powerhouse" for 10 cents. What a treat! Most of our classes were held in the Arts Building. Room 250A was on the second floor and was the largest room in the building. It had a stage at one end and was used as a multi-purpose room. Classes, chorus practices, plays, pep club practices and dances were held in 250A. The ninth grade play was performed there in 1949 and I was in it. I think I had one line. One memorable event in connection to 250A was the Sophomore Ball held in the spring of 1950. I was the Sophomore Class Social Chairman along with Roger Bown. We were in charge of class parties. We spent hours decorating 250A with a false ceiling of crepe paper streamers and wrapping tree branches with green and pink paper blossoms. We thought the room looked like a fantasy land. We Sophomores had all turned sixteen during the year, and we had new drivers' licenses. The boys had borrowed the family cars, and we felt very independent. We were just too enthralled with this newfound freedom to stay indoors, so we danced a couple of times and then left the dance, climbing into the autos to "drag Center'. Then we drove all the way up the canyon to the Weight family cabin in Wildwood. We were very excited to be so far away from campus, and we felt very grown-up. It was a memorable time, even if we didn't do much dancing at our Sophomore Ball. I have in my possession the part of the frame from over the door that says 250A. It was given to me by my friend, Arnolene Snow Anderson. As the Arts Building was being torn down, she entered and asked a workman to remove that part of the door frame for so she could give it to me. It is a reminder of many memories of dear old B.Y. High. By Barbara Wolsey Wilcox, Orem. [Provo Daily Herald, September 7, 2001.] |

Box 277, 284 East Main Street, Lovell, Wyoming 82431 - PH: (307) 548-2751 - Bruce Wolsey, Branch Manager. ~ ~ ~ ~ Another member of household: Brett E. Wolsey. [Note: tol@tctwest.net email is a general address for all members of the "Town Of Lovell" Town Council.] @2010 ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS RETIREMENT TRIBUTE: Friends, colleagues and longtime customers of Bruce Wolsey gathered at First National Bank and Trust on Dec. 8, 2010 to honor the longtime Lovell Branch Manager upon his retirement. A native of Provo, Utah, Wolsey attended Brigham Young Elementary School and Brigham Young High School before enrolling in Brigham Young University. After a year and a half at BYU, he went into the U.S. Army for three years, serving for a year and a half in Europe and another year in Vietnam. Between his two postings, he married his wife, Shanna. The young couple moved to Denver in 1970, and Bruce went to work for Household Finance Co. for one year. He then worked for Metro Bank and First National Bank of Bear Valley before moving to Jackson in 1980, where he worked for First Wyoming Bank for eight years and Bank of Jackson Hole for another eight years. He also worked for Wyoming Financial Corp. for one year. The Wolseys moved to Lovell in 1997, and Bruce took over as vice president and branch manager of First National Bank and Trust in August of that year. He quickly got involved in his new community, serving on the Lovell Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors for some 12 years, helping to form the Rotary Club, serving as a member of the Lovell Town Council for four years (re-elected in November), serving on the Lovell Recreation Board and working as a volunteer in sports-related activities. "I love kids," he said. Wolsey said serving his community comes naturally to him. "I always wanted to be involved in the communities I lived in and do what I could," he said. "I like to see things accomplished and the town growing and help promote things that need to be done and improve the overall situation of the town." That community interest translated into his banking. "The hard part of retiring is that I will miss the persons I was able to help and associate with and help them with their financial needs," he said. "I like to see people get into a new home or get a new vehicle they've been looking for. That's something I enjoy. That's what I'll miss the most." TRIBUTES: Former assistant vice president and loan officer Cheryl Jolley said Wolsey was good to work with and was an asset to the bank and the community with his various activities. "He is very involved in the community, and he was always nice to customers," Jolley said. "He had an open-door policy and was very helpful to me. He taught me a lot. He's very much a family man. Family is very important to him." Mayor Bruce Morrison agreed, noting, "Ever since he came to the community, he's been an asset not only to the bank but to the community as a whole. He's always been involved, from the chamber to the Rotary Club to the town. He has always wanted to be involved and will continue to be so. "He gained the confidence of all the people as the point man for the bank. People respected his abilities. I've always appreciated his financial expertise on the town council." Bob Rodriguez of Lovell said Wolsey "deserves commendations for his dedicated service to the organization," adding, "Sincere devotion to duty is an attribute of the highest caliber, as exemplified by Bruce. He put in his time to the betterment of his company, and the banking firm, I am sure, is cognizant of his de-votedness. "Bruce will be missed by his bank customers, but by his continued volunteer-ism in the community, we'll still reap the benefits of his commitment." "We wish Bruce well and all the best in his retir-ment," First National Bank and Trust Chief Operations Officer Bob Golden said.
