Maryanne Hill Hoggard Yarborough

Mrs. Yarborough was the most influential teacher in my lifetime. She had a profound effect on my development in the sixth grade at Ceaser Tarrant and at Sinclair Elementary School in Hampton, VA. She was great friends with my mother Georgetta Moore. I couldn't get away with anything. LOL. RIP Mrs. Yarborough.

Some of the most important people in our lives are teachers. They help us to learn, grow and come of age. I never never forgot Ms Yarbrough. My 6th Grade Teacher. The Best!

I just learned of Mrs. Yarborough's passing today and want to extend my condolences to her family. She was such a remarkable woman, and impacted so many of us for life. I am a graduate of Hampton City Schools, and of all the wonderful educators who helped mold me into the high school teacher I am today, Mrs. Yarborough is the standout. She had unwavering, deliberate, and very high expectations for each of us. Not "all," but "each." She knew our names and favorite things to do. She respected...

Thank you so much to those who've commented, so far. I'm really missing my mother. We spent so much time together over the past several years. I know she's in a better place now, though. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. Many blessings. Renate

Dear Renate, Was sorry to hear about your Mom. My Mom passed away on Christmas Eve, 1999. God bless you and your family,
you are in my prayers. Nancy Williams,

I remember Mrs. Yarborough with great love and respect. During her time at Tucker Capps I was privileged to serve as PTA President and she made my job so much easier with her wisdom, patience and never ending help. My condolences to the family and hope they find solace in the knowledge that she was respected and loved by a great many!

I was truly saddened to hear of Mrs. Yarborough's passing. I had the pleasure of being her student at Aberdeen Elementary School and my first year of teaching, she was my principal. She made such a great impact in my personal and professional life. Mrs. Yarborough was the epitome of a classy lady. You have my heartfelt condolences.
