This is Roy Messer Pearson's Sommerville High School Graducation photo.
Roy grew up to marry Ruth Simmons and after a long career ministering all over the country he eventually became Dean and President of Andover Newton Thological School.
Roy retired to New London, NH where he is now buried.
Although it has been kept in a closed paper folder for decades, the image is showing evidence of fading around the edges.
I took a risk on damaging it further by scanning it but, I think it was worth it.
Better to have it slightly damaged and permanantly digitized to be shared over and over, than keep it closed up in a dark trunk to preserve as long as possible an image no one will ever again see.
