When Mrs. Stevenson was my third-grade teacher, I absolutely couldn't wait to get to school every day. She is one of the reasons I am a teacher today. Please accept my deepest sympathies.

I wish to extend my most sincere sympathy. My children thrived in her third grade and I shall always remember her kindness to them and to me.

Dokey & family,
As my brother already pointed out, your Aunt Mary was the only teacher at the Lafayette to have had all 5 of us. She was such a special person to my Mom and to all of us. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this sad time.
Sincerely,
Carla

Mrs. Stevenson was my third grade teacher at the Lafayette, and I still think of her often, and with great affection. Mrs. Stevenson was a wonderful teacher, and I would like her family know how much she meant to me, even after all these years. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Stevenson & Ross Families,
I'm so sorry to hear of Aunt Mary's passing. Just thinking of all the times at the cottage with her puts a smile on my face.
Take care. Thinking of you all.

Aloha,

From a former student of Mrs. Stevenson's - I wanted to express my condolences to her family.
She was the only teacher at the Lafayette School to have had all five of my siblings in class.
