Libby Logger Spirit Senior Faith Erickson was honored at Senior Night festivities Feb. 13 prior to the girls home basketball game against Columbia Falls.

Erickson, the daughter of Liz and Josh Erickson, excelled in Special Olympics in the 50- and 100-yard dashes, softball throw and 500-meter bicycle during her four years of high school.

Erickson, who accompanies many choir concerts with sign language for deaf and hearing-impaired people, also enjoys lifting weights and being with her friends in physical education class.

She plans to remain in Libby working at local salons and gyms.

According to her profile in the program, Erickson's advice to underclass comes from Proverbs 16:24, "Kind words are like honey, sweet to the soul and healthy for the body."

She appreciated the efforts of her teacher Mrs. Baney and Mrs. Barbour for making Special Olympics happen for her.

She also is thankful for the support of her grandparents, friends and teachers as well as her siblings.
