Dear Craig and all of your family,
I was so sorry to read about your Mom's passing in the Courier News electronic edition. She and I worked together at the Sunnymead School in Hillsborough for a number of years before I was transferred to Woods Road. She was a wonderful teacher and mentor. I will fondly remember the help she gave me as a young teacher entering the profession. She was a special colleague and friend, and offered continual support to a really green "rookie". Please accept my condolences. I am very sorry for your loss.
Barbara Linski, Los Angeles, Calif.
