Our prayers are with you. I thought of our first meeting with Mrs. Hill. She was a lady in all that she said and did. Dressed to the nines, all things done "properly", a no nonsense lady with a heart of gold

Hey Gary, My condolences to you for the loss of your aunt. She was my 6th grade teacher at J. A. Bowler Elementary School in 1958. She was also my favorite teacher and I never forgot her. She had a great impact on me and thousands of students during her career and will not be forgotten. May she rest in peace and power. Thomas "TC" Cannon Wildcat For Life Trojan For Life
