She was a wonderful teacher ,my condolences to the family

In the third grade I was a new student at the school and our teacher kept us late so we missed the bus. I had no idea how to get home (of course this was pre-cell phone days). Joan fortunately did and we walked the couple of miles home together. I wouldn´t be where I find myself today if it hadn´t been for her kindness that day. I have never forgotten that. My condolences to her family. Joan Engelhardt

Joan taught my children at St. Mary's. I believe she was the best teacher they ever came across. She will be missed.

Going into 7th grade at St.Williams school, I heard of a new Science teacher that was tough as nails and her name was Ms. Jaeger. Well, wouldn't you know, I got to be in her home room. Yes, she was tough, but we also had more fun and laughs with her and she actually was my favorite teacher of all time! She even stopped in at my house for my 8th grade graduation party. That´s the kind of teacher she was. I´ve thought of her often over the years, and hoped she had a wonderful life, and it...

Ms.Jaeger was our Science teacher in 7th and 8th grade at St.William School . May she rest peacefully. We were c/o1972.

Ms Jaeger as I knew her by when she taught me at St Williams was an excellent teacher and you didn´t mess around or else. She was as tough as she was kind. One day she called out my name and said your mom´s maiden name is the same as mine. From then on she cut me a little more slack. I will keep her in our family rosary intentions tonight and may the souls of the faithfully departed rest in peace. Good speed Ms Jaeger.

So very sorry 50 she spent countless hours teaching us the metric system in 1975 at Saint William school class of 75
