Mr. Allred,
I saw "Ms. Lackey's" picture in Sunday's paper and was so sadden by her passing. She taught me Biology at Hampton High School almost 50 years ago. She was hard but fair. At the time I thought it was rough, but life has taught me she did me a favor. My condolences to you for the lost of a fine person.

I appreciate you greatly. I remember your prayers
in our worship through the 22 years I was your pastor.
Be assured of my love and prayers.

To the family:

I was a student of "Miss Lackey" at George Wythe Junior High School (9th grade), and I remember her just as vividly now as I did almost 50 years ago. She was a very special teacher who made every student feel special to her. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Miss Lackey was my biology teacher at George Wythe JHS. Although science was not my favorite subject, Miss Lackey made it very interesting, even dissecting a frog. (It was not as yucky as I thought it would be.) She was so sweet. My deep condolences.
