Dear Wells Family, My name is Terry Jackson and I serve as head of the ESE department at Lake Placid High School. Last Year when your wife and mother served as a long term sub she put her whole self into doing the best job she could do. It was absolutely clear to all of us that she truly cared for the students and the staff also. She was a hard worker and dedicated to the job she did while she was here. We will miss her and my prayers are with you all.

Troy, Tory, and Caleb
I worked with your dear mother and wife last year and found her to be a devoted follower of Christ and also to her family. She was part of our lunch group and we enjoyed her wit and time of sharing, so often about each of you. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you.
