Mrs. Jones was a caring and wonderful teacher. I was in her class in 1976. She gave me encouragement as a young mother. I graduated mid year. Today my son is 37 and a vice president of an local engineering firm. She taught me many valuable lessons in that class and I'm still using them today. What wonderful memories! Thank You Mrs. Jones for everything. God Bless you and your family.
