CONGRATULATIONS TRACEY LOSI !!

You graduated from Bowling Green
And decided to go to the Podiatry scene.

You studied the foot day and night.
You saw many patients and treated them well,

And didn't even mind the awful foot smell.
You hung in there and didn't quit,

And after four years, you finally made it.
You are a DPM as of this day,

And "What's up Doc?" is what your patients will say.
So every time you remove a shoe.

Remember how proud we are of you!

Love,
Mom and Dad
