Marty, so sorry to hear about Marilyn. I loved to see the pictures of dogs she dressed in various costumes! She'll always be in your heart. Emilie

Miss Starr, as I knew her, was a wonderful teacher. Strict, but caring, a bit sarcastic with a smile, and an excellent teacher. She clearly cared about all her students. Im so sorry for her loss, as I can truthfully say, she made PE fun for me!! Thank you, Miss Starr!
