Not sure what to say?

I´m so sorry to hear this. I had her for 5th grade at Centre Elementary School and she was one of my favorite teachers. She was great! Always kind, no nonsense, and had a great sense of humor. She will be sorely missed by many. My sincere condolences to her family. She was a wonderful woman. Felice (Walker) Shannon

We were a part of the Centre Elementary 5th grade class of 68-69. Mrs. Maddalena was one of the most memorable and important teachers in my many years of schooling: smart, caring, disciplined, inquisitive, supportive - and more. Several of my classmates from back then - now scattered all over and long gone from Clearfield - connected yesterday to share our fond memories of Mrs. Maddalena.

In 1965, my 5th grade teacher at Third Ward Elementary School in Clearfield was Miss Peggy Peacock. She was a new teacher, and she was young, enthusiastic, and beautiful.

So very sad about Peg's passing. She was such a nice lady and became a dear friend and colleague. We will really miss her.

Dear Michelle and family, Dear God, this is terrible, horrible news. Your Mom was so many wonderful things! I admired and adored her. I´m imagining her and your Dad so joyfully reunited. Please know how deeply I´m grieving with you. I´m sorry I can´t be with you at the service. We´re in South Carolina for the winter but I´ll be with you in spirit and you´ll be in my prayers.
