You are in my thoughts and prayers.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Alice was my sister-in-law and sister-in-Christ,...

My memories of Mrs McCurdy start early in my childhood. As a child she was a kind, friendly neighbor; in school she was my teacher in 9th grade. Oh how she loved to laugh! You learned so much in her class, yet learning was fun! In the summer she and Mr McCurdy were often on the front porch reading a newspaper or a book, enjoying the evening. You were most welcome to pop by and talk. When I visited my parents, I would stop to say hi. I am saddened by the loss, yet thankfull for many wonderful...

We met Alice after our daughter and her family moved next door to her and Mac. She was a very sweet lady and a pleasure to talk to. Our sympathy to her family.

Mac,
My sympathies to you and your family. I met Alice when she volunteered at the library and our friendship continued years after. She was such a delightful person. She will be truly missed.

Mrs. McCurdy was absolutely one of my favorite teacher at Jr. High. She was one of the first people who show me what the true meaning of friendship. She will be truley missed. It was a honor to be one of her students.

Mrs. McCurdy was my supervising teacher when I did my student teaching at Souers in 1966. I learned so much from her. I will always remember her bringing my entire third period class to my wedding in August of 1966(all boys).
She will always be with me in my memories. So much of what she taught me was in my lessons and was passed on to my students at Massillon. She was the ultimate teacher. I admired her so very much.

I had Mrs. McCurdy at Stark School for 7th & 8th grade history. She was a fine teacher.
My condolences to the family and friends.

Your mom is well remembered by the Souers alums.
