Marsha A. Lokar

I always remembered her and talked about her often. She was my 2nd grade teacher. May she RIP.

Marsha was more than just a mentor to me-she was a guiding light in my teaching journey. From the very beginning, she welcomed me with kindness, sharing not only her wisdom but also her deep love for her students. I admired and even envied her unwavering dedication to their success, as well as her passion for the art of teaching. Over the years, we discovered we had many connections, sharing stories and memories of people we both knew, which always brought laughter and warmth to our...

Marsha was a longtime client and friend. I loved talking with her about her mom and family, especially the boys who she adored. Her trip to Europe was another of our highlighted chats. Always kind and upbeat she loved the ahighland School District and years teaching with her gang at Grandview and their famous Christmas parties....thanks to Fred Paganelli. She will be missed. My condolences to Rick and family. She will always be a bright spot in my memory.

Rick, Melinda and I both worked with your mom at First Ward . We both have fond memories of her. She was one of the nicest and truly dedicated teachers at Highlands. When I left Highlands for a principal position out east, she wrote a letter to me that I still have along with a scrapbook of all the funny things we did at school. That letter is in that scrapbook on my bookshelf. What a wonderful person she was. She adored you! Our sincere sympathy goes out to your family.

My sincere condolences to the family. I was a student of hers in 5th grade at First Ward Elementary School in Tarentum, PA. I have many wonderful memories of being in her class. She made learning fun and I will always remember her as one of my favorite teachers.

Rick; As you celebrate the life of you Mom, know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. My memories of her at church, teaching, and just being a friend and mentor will remain in my heart. She is special and will always be. May she rest in peace. Donna Scholl
