Wonderful Teacher!! Her 1 paddling stopped me from MANY I could have gotten .
I'm glad I hugged her the last time I saw her many years ago.

Living out of state often means information is shared late, and I just became aware of Mrs. Wise´s passing. My condolences to the family. She was my 2nd grade teacher, but more like an extended family member since I lived right across the street from her brother, sister-in-law, niece and nephew. JT was like that. Great memories!

Mrs. Wise was not only my teacher but 1 of my mentors. I was lucky enough to also have her teach my daughter as well. She was so caring, sweet & a gentle loving person & my absolute favorite teacher. She always felt like family to me. The last time I saw her was 24 years ago when she added detail beading to my wedding gown. And she must have blessed that dress because we are still married today. May God be with her family and may she rest peacefully

I remember from going to school with her and when I was scared by the dog. She cleaned it up. We grew up in the same neighborhood. Condolences to the Ogletree and Wise families.

Mrs. Wise never had me as a student in her class; nevertheless, she was the best teacher I've known. Whenever I'm attending one of the many professional learnings teachers have to attend and asked to remember my favorite teacher, her name is the first that comes to mind. She taught me more outside the classroom than any of the others did in one. Rest well Brenda Wise. You definitely deserve it.
Robin I will continue to pray for comfort and understanding for you, Lori, Todd, Mr. Wise and all of your family.

One of my favorite teachers except when she put that paddle on my behind but as we got older her and I got closer because her son Todd was one of my good friends! Praying for the family!

Mrs. Wise was one of best 2nd grade teachers! She taught me my multiplication facts and I will never forget the booklet she had each of us make so we could remember them. She was an awesome teacher! However, my most fond memory is that she was the BEST Girl Scout Leader everrrrr!!! Because of her, I was a leader for my daughter's troop and taught them like she taught me/us. She will forever be remembered in my heart as the best scout leader, teacher, neighbor and mother to many of us.
Prayers of comfort to the family. Let these memories keep you going.
Love,
Tracie Johnson
