I remember Mrs. Bainter as the school secretary when I attended Hubbard Elementary. That was back in the early 1960's. She was always so nice to me. I lived right across the street from the school on Wilber Ave. I would often see her looking out the window of Mr. Balint's office and when she'd notice me she'd wave.

So sorry to hear of her passing. My prayers go out to her family.

David,
I am so sorry for your loss. I remember your mom was our cub scout leader and have many fond memories of her and my friendship with you. Your mom helped us make buckeye necklaces and you and I sold them at OSU games for 50 cents. ph 885-5997
