Durham High School celebrated its seniors in their graduation ceremony Thursday. The night was given special honor to Claire Granzich who was killed in an ATV accident in 2007. She would have been a senior and graduating with her class had her life not been met with tragedy. The students paid tribute to Granzich by holding roses during the processional. It wasn't a somber mood as the event happened when the class were moving into their sophomore year. But the memories were still very vivid for some.
