We cherish the memories from our Saturday morning 'breakfasts with the ladies' at Bob Evans. Laughter and food and hot coffee. If the walls had ears....! Vallerie will certainly be missed from our circle.

Fondly,

I worked with Mrs. Miles at Malvern Elementary. She was an angel on earth. I never heard her say a mean word to any of the children. Her patient, calm presence made those crazy recess periods go smoothly.
