Dear Ellen: Although you don't know me, I worked with and knew your mother (Olga). We worked for Al Lanni at the Arlington Public Schools before she retired. Olga was the first person I met and worked closely with when I was first hired almost 30 years ago.
My name is Stephen Pereira and I am the Arlington Public Schools METCO Director. Your mom will be missed and I'm wishing you and your family my deepest sympathy.
