Mrs. Gentry was always a beautiful, kind, gentle teacher who I feel so fortunate to have had at Woerther Elementary. She made everything fun, was so bright and happy, and had contagious energy. I am so sorry to the Gentry family and to the community for your devastating loss. She will be in my thoughts, and I will carry the sweet memories of her smile for the 6 years that I had her as a teacher. Sending love and prayers.
