Friends gather for dedication of Nunn exhibit, building
Friends from far and near gath
ered at the Board of Education
Building (the old Perry High
School Building at 1000 Main St.)
on Sunday afternoon from 2-4
p.m., in the blistering sun, to honor
favorite son U.S. Sen. Sam Nunn at
the dedication ceremony and the
official opening of the renovated
building and the Sam Nunn
Museum Room in the building.
Short speeches recalling the
history of the building, the prob
lems with getting the renovation
project started, the purchase of the
old BOE building which made the
renovation possible, the
Corrections facility for furnishing
laborers, Bill Loudermilk for
overseeing the work, for those
who helped with the “brick” pro
ject, and the work by Bobbe
Nelson in getting items for the
museum, were delivered.
Political dignitaries who gave
the talks included Houston County
Superintendent of Schools, Tony
Hinnant, Perry Mayor Jim Worrall,
State Rep. Larry Walker, Skip
Talbert, Chairman of the Houston
County Board of Education and
native Perryan and Mrs. Aurelia
Evans, a teacher when the school
building was first opened, who
offered the prayer.
Nunn, who gave the main
address, recalled his boyhood
days, including the fact that he
started to school in the first grade
on his sixth birthday, Sept. 8,
1944, in that building and this day
of dedication was also on his
birthday. He gave much credit to
the teachers who taught him
through his 12 grades at Perry
High School and gave special
mention to the late E. P. ‘“Fessor”
Staples, principal and coach.
Mrs. Sam Nunn Sr., Colleen
Nunn, Betty Mori (Sen. Sam’s sis
ter), Betty’s husband, Jean Mori,
and their children, attended this
special service, along with
approximately 1,000 former PHS
students and friends of the
Senator.
All attending were invited to
come inside the building and see
how beautifully the building has
been renovated, the professional
looking museum, watch the video
in the auditorium, and enjoy the
refreshments while visiting with
old classmates and friends. It was
a time of “Perry at its Best”.
