I am truly sorry to hear the Mrs. Robilard has passed. She was a wonderful teacher and cared alot about her students. I have thought of her often over the years, especially about her caring ways.

I was in your Mom's 10th grade math class at LMHS. Many of the things I learned in her I apply in my work today.
I pray that her sole is happy in heaven...
