Class of 1955. Barbara Luke. Chorus, Thespians, Readings, Childrens Theater, German Club. Barbara Luke was born in Alaska before it became a state, and attended BYU High School in Provo. Her family moved from Anchorage to Provo when she was three, and she grew up in Provo while her father became Mr. Daily Herald as the City Editor of the Provo Daily Herald. After graduating from BY High School, she went on to BYU to pursue her love of dance, but she was lured away at the tender age of twenty to teach dance at a private girls school in Connecticut. There she stayed for the next thirty-five years, marrying, raising a son, and teaching. She retired and returned to Provo to be a companion to her mother in the same house she grew up in. Barbara returns to Connecticut each summer to teach music and movement in an art camp for women. Her other activities are diverse: she works part time for Head Start, plays the recorder with a group, roller blades, hikes, sings with a chorus, and once played bells with a group in Greenwich, Connecticut. In Utah she has found a great group of musicians to play with, a grand group of Rosewood women to explore with, two wonderfully supportive congregations of Unitarian-Universalists who uplift her, and excellent neurologist, a very helpful counselor, and a beautiful yoga teacher who restores her to life.

Erickson, second principal of BYA/Murdock Academy: "George Luke, teacher of physics and mathematics, was also a man of principles and fine character. He did not maintain the silent dignity of the two men previously mentioned [Reinhard Maeser & Alfred Durham], for which I was grateful. From him I learned about the things that went wrong as well as the things that deserved commendation. He became my advisor on administrative matters and my personal friend. He was also the campus handyman, taking care of the plumbing and repairs in general. If anything went wrong we always called George." ~ ~ ~ ~ George Leroy Luke was born November 3, 1881 in Manti, Utah [living in Junction, Piute County, Utah in 1904].

She married Jack Fenswick. ~ ~ ~ ~ Virginia Beth Luke was born on October 22, 1939 in Anchorage, Alaska. Her parents were Theron Howard Luke and Zelda Louise Morley Luke. She died on March 16, 1994 in Seattle, Washington. ~ ~ ~ ~ A TRIBUTE: Virginia Beth Luke Fenswick, born on October 22, 1939, and died on March 16, 1994. Virginia was born in Anchorage, Alaska, where her parents had gone on an adventure (there were no jobs to be had in Utah in the mid-1930’s). Upon returning to Utah, the family settled in Provo, where Virginia attended Joaquin Elementary School (now a school of the past), Farrer Junior High School, and then spent three happy years at BY High School, graduating in 1957. There she was an enthusiastic member of several clubs and was known as a good friend to many of her classmates. Eventually, she made her way to Seattle, Washington where she found a place that spoke to her soul. She was one of the first non-native women to fish the waters of Bristol Bay, Alaska, known as “the place where the sea breaks its back”. She fished as a gill-netter alongside her husband, Jack Fenswick, with whom she raised three children and two step-children. As her children grew, her home was always open to their friends who might be in need of a welcoming haven. One young man in particular stayed on and remains a member of the family to this day. She eventually put herself through college, graduating cum laude with a degree in accounting, then took a job with one of the “big eight” accounting firms in the country, then known as Peat, Marwick, and Mitchell. During this time she was also passionately active in the movement for women’s rights, and worked in many advocacy groups for women. The greatest gift she gave her children was the passing on of her own love of adventure. Her sons and daughters learned from her to value life experiences above material things. They fondly recall everything from picnics and camping excursions, to exploring the pyramids of Mexico, and the temples of Japan, with their mother, Virginia. Her laughter and love of life live on in the memories of her family. [Written in memory of Virginia, by her sister, Barbara Luke, in February 2007]
