I enjoyed seeing Dorothy every week, as we all did. She was such a lovely person, always smiling and spreading kindness. I can't help but smile when I think of her. Dorothy was a good example of how to grow old with grace. We will miss her physical presence but it feels like she's still here with us too!

Mrs. Haven was one of the most outstanding teachers I ever had in my life. I was her student at La Jolla Country Day School and to this day, my memories of her are vivid and wonderful. She was a brilliant and talented teacher. Thank you, Mrs. Haven!
