Doctor Partee was my principle when I was at William Brown Miller Elementary School. I can remember it like yesterday when she retired and my 3rd grade teacher (Mrs. Williams) choose me to do a James Brown dance as a tribute during her retirement celebration at my school. I still look at the tape today and I can say that it was truly an honor to perform for the Great DOCTOR PARTEE. We love you and you will truly be missed. (Class of 1999 alumni)

Our family truly appreciates the positive influence she had on the lives of so many students and...

My prayers are with you at this time and always.

A gracious and beautiful lady who inspired everyone she met. Dr. Partee was the first to roll up her sleeves and volunteer for the tough task. An advocate and defender of education and libraries, she worked tireless for the Dallas Public Library. She will be missed.

Condolences to the entire family of Dr. Hazel Partee. My husband and I were PTA parents at William Brown Miller. She was a fantastic person and more than a fantastic principle. Three of my children attended W B Miller two while she was principle there and Chris, Jeri, Clarence Jr. and my husband Clarence concur that she will be missed. I always used to refer to her as a tan Lena Horne. Nothing but class. Juanita Carter
