Bobby Cain was a senior when he entered the formerly all-white Clinton High School in Tennessee on a court order.
Unlike the Little Rock Nine, the Clinton 12 students were not hand-picked and trained for the job of desegregation.
In the end, only one other member of the Clinton 12 made it to graduation.
Gail Ann Epps graduated the following year, according to the Tennessee State Museum.
He received a scholarship to attend Tennessee State University in Nashville, where he met his wife.
