My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time of loss. It was a pleasure to teach with Jane, she was the epitome of the "best" in teaching. She had the patience of a saint. I was pleased to be able to help Frank in those contentious years of Algebra to set her mind at rest. May she rest in peace.

Janie was so much a part of my growing-up life in Plymouth, always a concerned and caring friend. Pajama parties, cruising North Plymouth, gossip fests - we've kept in touch over the years and coming home to Plymouth will not be the same without her. Her passing leaves a hole in my heart.

I knew Mrs. LeBlanc from when I attended Sacred Heart. Her love of teaching was just as strong as her love for her students, her faith, and her family. My deepest sympathies to you. Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May she and all of the souls of the faithfully departed rest in peace. May the love of our Father comfort you and keep you in your time of sorrow. Amen.

Mrs. LeBlanc was a wonderful teacher and caring person. In addition to teaching us the subject material she always taught us kindness. She shared great stories with life lessons and kept us focused on positive choices. She serves as an inspiration for my own teaching. Thank you, Mrs. LeBlanc! You will always be remembered.

Mrs. LeBlanc taught me English at Sacred Heart in the late 80's. She had the reputation of being a wonderful teacher and everyone loved her. I still remember her sitting at the back of the class as I gave an oral report and she had previously coached me on saying "um" and "like" too much so she told me each time Inused those words she would raise her hand so I was aware of the frequency of my mistakes. I still think of her each time I speak in public! She will live on in the hundreds of students she touched! Karen Last '92
