12 • Class of 2015 • June 3, 2015 Mapleton Sailors S n e o n t e i ors l p a M CANDIDATES FOR GRADUATION In Memorium Abigail Boydston November 19, 1996 - November 6, 2014 Abby had a signature smile that could light up the room. Her quietness shouldn’t have fooled anyone because once she opened up, she could keep you laughing for hours. Many of the younger kids looked up to her, especially her cousins. She had a kind-hearted awkwardness that is unforgettable. Abby will never be forgotten by anyone at Mapleton High School. Her spirit will forever live among us.
