Not sure what to say?

Mrs. Owen believed in me when no one else did. She thought that I could truly sing. Remember our trip to Fairlane Mall to sing representing the island. This note is long overdue.

Mr. & Mrs. Owens were both my teachers. Mrs. Owens for music & Mr. Owens for literature back in the 80s. They were both so nice & we kept in touch over the years. Rest in Peace. Duane Jarvis Class of 1981

Mrs. Owens was one of my favorite Teachers. I just adored her. My condolences go out to her Family. God Bless....Pamela Rocha

Time goes by so quickly. I cannot beleive it is a year since your passing. I wish we had met. I now have a missing link in my family tree. God bless

Maryliz and family: I was so sorry to learn of the passing of your Mom. My sister, Jan, and I spent some quality time around the piano with you and your mom so many years ago. Prayers for comfort and peace to you and your family.

Mrs. Owen was one of my favorite teachers and I still think of her whenever I find myself singing one of the many songs I learned from her. My mother was taught by her when she was Miss Morrison and still speaks fondly of her, too. I am so sorry to hear of her passing.

Mary was the greatest lady I have ever known. She was wise, kind, and a joy to all. Her jokes and puns were legendary and her sense of humor was wonderful. Her enthusiasm for teaching and life itself was a gift to her many students and friends. I will miss her so very much, but am so lucky to have had her as a dear friend.

My first piano teacher!!!! On Parkwood. I think I was about 8 years old. Even though I have had no contact with her for years and years, I would think of her often. She had a wonderful life. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

We are so sorry we never met you. It would have been lovely meeting the eldest member of the family. Kim & Charlie Cope (UK)
