Mary F. Behanna

Friddle was my 9th grade Home Ech teacher in Gastonia, NC. She was a special teacher and special friend. I have fond memories of her taking several of us to Charleston one weekend. We had a wonderful time. I never understood why she treated us so special. We adored her. My regret is that I didn't try to locate her years ago. It would have been wonderful to have stayed in touch. My sympathy is extended to the family. Janette Smith Craig

Rest in peace Mary. Thank you for being such a loving and considerate roommate of my Mother's at the Care Center. Condolences to your family.

Mrs. Behanna was my home ec teacher at Eastview Jr. High. I always will remember her beautiful smile and her patience; how she always was eager to help a student. Oh, how she touched my life! My heart goes out to her family and friends.

I was not fond of Home Ec in Jr. High.I was the girl who would have to rip out every seam because I did it backwards or the wrong way. Needless to say I didn't want to take Home Ec ever again! I thought that I was finished with it in Jr. High. Well as fate would have it Mrs. Behanna was then transfered to the High...

To The Behanna Family,
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your Mother and Grandmother.
I was one of Mrs. Behanna's students from Home Ec when she taught in Hudson.
Aside from everything she taught us, I will never forget walking through the halls on the days her classes were baking cookies. The smells wafting through the halls outside her door were delicious. She was a good teacher, a really nice person, and one of the more memorable teachers who always had a smile for...

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
