Read MoreI am so sorry to hear of her passing. One of the best teachers I ever had. She was teaching us measurements and we made pumpkin bread in class.

Sydney, Betsy and I are thinking of you. Neither of us drive to Roanoke now or we would come for the service. You mother was such a sweet caring person and we dearly love your family. Prayers for comfort.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Ms. Bowling taught me in school at Huff Lane 4th grade. She was so nice.

Mrs. Bolling was my 3rd grade teacher in 1982 at Huff Lane Elementary. She was my favorite teacher in elementary school and recommended me for bigger and better things in a gifted program and helped change my life trajectory. Thank you, Mrs. Bolling, for a lifelong inspiration for learning and being kind to others. Rest in Peace and God bless
