Can't believe Ms Southall is gone! She taught me and Susan Conner to drive. She always called me "Conner" and Susan "Carlton". We just knew to answer her. Susan scared her to death when she drove! She will be missed!

WOW! doesn't even come close to losing Mrs. Southall. She was my P.E. teacher at PEA from 1963-64, and she never changed. Even back then she called everyone by their last names. My own daughters were her students at PEA from 1982-1986, and she even called my oldest daughter by my last name (maiden name) from the time she first saw her. It was quite funny because my daughter knew exactly who "Southall" was referring to, but no one else did. I saw Mrs. Southall at various school functions over the past years, and she still called me by my last name as she knew it. At times, she could look and sound really gruff, but she had a heart of gold and loved her students. "Southall"... we will miss you, but memories of you will remain with us forever. Farewell dear friend from Mason, Canady (Mason) and Canady

Southall, Wow, this is so hard to believe. No one could say our last names as she could! Even after you were married for thirty years, she still called your last name when she saw you. AND she never forgot! After you added a husband and children, she never forgot them either. She always knew who everyone was and how they were related.
Southall loved our school and passed this love onto us. She made all of us feel we needed to do more. She gave right on through last fall's football season. She would stand at the gate and call everyone by name.
We loved her! She was defintely an icon at the Academy. Her P.E. classes were like no other. Especially, when she had to teach first aid. We laughed and laughed! "Fulcher, Ellett, Dunn, put the bandages on right!!"
I'll never forget when I went to the armory to try out for J.V. Basketball. She looked at me and my 4' 8" body and she said in her very kind voice, "Ellett, what are you doing here?" She still let me do what everyone else did knowing I did not stand a chance of making the team. Southall even took time to come over and try to help me learn to shoot. (I had never seen a girl's basketball game before and had no idea of rules or how to play the game.) Being very delicate, she sat us on the the floor and thanked all those who tried out. She then read the roster and hey, no surprise, my name wasn't on it. She looked at me and said "maybe there is something else you can do at school, like band!" I took her advise and enjoyed the band tremendously! She was the best! She and Mr. Fore are what our school stands for on campus and in the community! Family! She will be missed!
