Dear Floyd
I too had the pleasure of working with Else, when I was a new and inexperienced educator. She would often share her expertise, wisdom and advise with me. I really enjoyed how she could be so serious about her work, yet was always quick to share some laughter. It has truly been my privilege to have had the opportunity to know and work with her. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
