Miss Assenheimer turned me on to reading. She was very nice to me and I think that secretly, she enjoyed the antics of our freshman English class (1974). I a glad that she enjoyed such a long and happy life,

Miss Assenheimer was my Freshman English teacher quite a few years ago at Highland High School. She was such a nice lady. I really enjoyed her class.
May she Rest In Peace.
