Not sure what to say?

Catherine, I will miss you so much. I enjoyed our visits and talks we had and all the knowledge you shared with me. Rest in peace.

Catherine,

Although I never personally met Mrs
Franklin, I talked to her numerous times on the phone. Her husband taught me to drive---immediately after I completed my driving test, I drove her husband to Sherman to take care of some business at the

Mrs. Franklin was my sixth grade teacher at Bonham Elem. I was only 1.5 years post polio and was still struggling to find my way in a body that just didn't work very well anymore. She was the best teacher I ever had. She made a difficult year so much easier for a very unhappy little girl. I loved her. She always read to us after lunch. I will never forget Rufous Redtail and Johnny Tremain.
She was a very special person.
