Not sure what to say?

I'm sending my heartfelt thoughts and prayers to Kathy and family in the loss of your mother. Mothers fill a special place in the heart and offer a special kind of love that no one else can give.

Mrs. Nash was my 2nd grade teacher at Jefferson Elementary during the 1969-70 school year. We also lived in the same Gahanna Heights neighborhood and I spent many days playing at the Tesnow's house across the street from her...one of my all time favorite teachers and simply a great lady. Condolences to her family.

My aunt was an inspiration to me throughout my 38 year teaching career. I loved her infectious laugh and have fond memories of playing board games with my cousins in the basement of her house in Gahanna.She was a terrific lady!

Thoughts and prayers to Jan's family. I only knew Jan a short while, 32 years ago while doing my student teaching at Jefferson. Although I didn't work with her, I remember having pleasant conversations, and her love of birding. God Bless.
