Marla McCarty

Can't believe it's been 10 years. Still miss you Marla.

Coach MCCarty had a great influence on my attitude both on the court and off. She always stood up for her team and I admired her. I have told many people over the years what an influence my coach had on me. It was a privelege to represent Mac with her by our side.

Coach McCarty, I've thought of you so often over the years since my days at Mac. Unfortunately, my first year there was your last before moving to Churchill. That was the first year Mac had a freshman volleyball team. I was so happy to be on that team and to have you there giving me tons of encouragement and praise. I will forever remember your kindness. Even later when Mac would play Churchill, you always came to say hello, and offer a big hug. I will treasure a pic I have of the two...

Coach McCarty is one person I will never, ever forget. She taught so many of us such valuable lessons - honesty, kindness, determination, and HUMOR! Playing volleyball at WCHS created some of the best memories I have, and not one of us ever had a bad thing to say about her. And just like she did on the court, she will bring us all together again on Aug 25th - so many different classes but all with the same desire - to remember and honor such a great lady. She will be so greatly missed,...

Coach McCarty and Coach Bingham have given me a gift that has lasted a lifetime. They made a difference for so many, which has been noted in these entries. As students, what more could we ask for from our teachers. Coach, may you rest in peace. Thank you.

"Miss McCarty" will always stand out as one of my favorite teachers. I will never forget all the fun, laughter and love she gave us in P.E. It was always a time you could look forward to during the day. She will be missed.......

I'm grateful to have had Coach McCarty as my teacher and later as a colleague. She had a great sense of humor and was an important listening ear to me as a beginning teacher. Her dedication to teaching is still an inspiration to me. My condolences to her family and friends.

She was not officially my Coach, but while treating me for Track injuries she always took time to talk with me. She pushed in a positive manner to make you work to overcome your weaknesses.

Coach McCarty was one of the best coaches I ever had and always treated her players with respect and fairness. Prayers to her family and friends!
