Eunice High senior class gathered around a magnolia tree to pay tribute to a fellow classmate, the late Julia Watford. Watford died in September 2015. The senior class of 2017 raised money to have the marble marker completed. A solemn moment of silence and remembrance led by Pierre Martel, a history teacher at Eunice, along with Watford’s grandmother Mona Bertrand and a close family friend Bambi Ardoin was held May 11. Martel, who taught Watford since Central Middle School, encouraged the group of seniors, “Do not waste a moment in your life. Life is so precious, and life can be taken away in an instant. Achieve and strive for your life time goals.” (Photo by Myra Miller)
