To the family of Ms. Kirkland, My deepest sympathy. It seems as tho it was yesterday that I was a student of Ms. Kirkland at F.W.Spencer School. When I saw her picture on the paper WOW!! there's miss. kirkland. It took me back to the 60's when she was my 4th grade teacher. Those were the good ole days. My sincere prayers to the family God Bless you all.

A strong,stern yet loving teacher. I was taught 6th grade at Spencer.I know I got on her nerves, many days for running my mouth, while she taught us.I appreciate what I learned from her and she will be missed.

The The Kirkland Family,
I was sad to see that Mrs. Kirkland had passed. She was my 5th grade teacher at F.W. Spencer Elementary and she was one of the best. So family stay strong in the Lord.

Warm summer evenings sitting on the porch on West 36th Street. Ice cream from Harry' s Drug Store, playing with your poodle, Pierre and a lot of sisterly advice. I will miss you dear neighbor. God Bless You.

To the Kirkland Family,
Our condolences are with you and yours. I often spoke with Ms. Kirkland at Mrs. Morgan's house when my two children (Rocco & Fawn) were at Ruth's house as they grew up. Ms. Kirkland was pleasant, with warm thoughts.

My deepest sympathy is extended to this family ,Mrs.Kirkland was my six grade teacher,and one of the very best at her profession.She not only taught the three R's she taught love ,respect, etiquette, and pose.I had the chance over the years to take care her at Candler as my patient as she had so offening taken care of a hardhead young girl back at Frank W.Spencer so long ago.She was proud of me and I of her because I was a product of her many years of selfless services to young people in the Inner City Education Community.Sleep on Willie Mae Kirkland take your rest we your students loved "Mama Kirkland " but GOD loves you best....
