Not sure what to say?

A wonderful inspiring teacher. I always enjoyed her classes and she always had a kind word to say.

Toddy is a loss to the world! She was a wonderful teacher and scholar. I remember her very fondly and she was also well respected and loved by my mother, Grace, who first discovered her talents as her teacher at NFA.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Ms. Agranwitch. She was an inspiration to us all.

This is sad. Toddy was one of the three or four best teachers I ever had.

She used to give me the Arts & Leisure section from the Sunday TIMES every Monday. Which was a big deal for a kid growing up in Norwich. I remember articles about "the tramps who remade the theatre," when Steve Martin and Robin Williams were playing "Godot" and a full page movie ad showing a lady with wings swinging on a trapeze - "Wings of Desire," it was called and all I knew was I wanted more than anything to...

Ms. Agranovitch was one of my instructors ar Norwich Free Academy in the 1970's... and one that I remember with great respect and esteem.
I consider myself fortunate to have been one of the thousands of students at NFA that have benefited from her dedication and hard work over several decades.

Toddy was a beloved teacher, friend, and surrogate grandmother. She has been a blessing in my life. I'll miss her.

Condolences to the family...remember her from NFA so many years ago.

What a legend. I have nothing but deep admiration for this lady.

Miss Agranwitch was a tremendous teacher and an extraordinary person. She was the type of teacher that changed the lives of her students. May she rest in peace. John Sweeney
