Memorials of the Class of 1985
Carol (Rios) Alvarado Carol Rios was a member of the LHS class of 1985. She was born in Lexington, NE on December 9, 1965 to Julian and Connie (Escobar) Rios. She passed away at her home in North Platte, NE on Thursday, October 12, 2006. Carol was a mother of three children. Two sons, Seth Short of Mill Spring, N.C., Justin Converse of Lexington, NE., and a daughter, Candelaria Martinez of Lexington, NE. She was preceded in death by cousins Zack and Damian Rios. Carol attended Bryan elementary school in Lexington and is remembered as a girl who loved to play on the playground. One classmate wanted to share that on the very first day of first grade Carol approached her and asked her what her name was and if she wanted to be friends today. She had a sweet spirit and Carol is remembered as a kind and loving person. She enjoyed listening to music from the 1970's and 80's. Her beloved cat, Bingo, carried a special place in her heart. May she rest in eternal peace.
KAYLA NOVAK On behalf of the class of 1985 we would like to recognize our fellow classmate, Kayla Novak. Kayla attended both Pershing and Bryan elementary school. She was taken from this world at an early age during her elementary school years due to a heart condition. We remember Kayla being a very happy little girl. She always had a smile for everyone. She lit a room like a ray of sunshine. We remember her being very petite and delicate in her build. She loved to play ball with the other classmates and also enjoyed children's games such as jump rope and tag. We will always remember how proud she was of her two new front teeth and how her pretty brown hair cupped her face so perfectly. We fondly remember her wearing dresses often. Little Kayla left us at a young age and was not there hand in hand with our fellow classmates as we attended sporting events, proms, or when we all so proudly tossed our caps in the air on graduation day. This did not mean that we forgot about her. She was friends with many of us and has always remained with us in spirit and in our hearts throughout the journey of our school years. She is missed but never has been forgotten by us. Together always in spirit, Fellow members of the class of 1985
