My sincerest condolences to the Mims Family. Ms. Mims was an excellent English teacher who expected the best from you and gave her best enabling you to soar. Her inspiration resulted in my becoming an English teacher and for that I will forever be grateful. The lives she touched as an instructor will always be part of her legacy. She will be missed.
