Students will often change 'favorite teachers' as they are growing and learning. It is with great pride that I can say Ms. Scrivani was one of mine. Now, thirtysome odd years later, her teaching, both professionally and personally, continue to impact my life.
My deepest sympathies to her family and close friends in their time of loss.
