Not sure what to say?

Mrs. Coder will always be remembered as one of my favorite teachers. She taught her students so much more than just book knowledge. We covered manners, respect for your peers, so many life lessons that just aren't covered today. I feel very fortunate to have had her as a teacher. She was a very special lady.

Mrs. Coder was my 6th grade teacher - one of my favorite teachers of all time. She and her husband also took me to rock shows with them on weekends. I remember her teaching us how strict school could be if we were in Russia, with no talking allowed. She was not pleased with our attempts to use Morse Code to "talk" with our pencil taps.
She was a great teacher and a great woman. My condolences to her family.

I am sorry for your loss. Mrs. Coder was my teacher in 6th Grade, and I will never forget her. Sincerely, Cary Vogrin (Leider)

ONE OF THE THINGS I WILL NEVER FORGET ABOUT MILLIE IS HOW SHE WOULD MAKE SURE I ALWAYS HAD SOMETHING TO EAT DURING MY LUNCH HOUR. YOU SEE, WHEN I GOT MONEY FEOM MY WIFE FOR LUNCH, I WOULD KEEP IT IN A HIDDEN PLACE SO I COULD USE IT FOR MY CHRISTMAS PRESENTS. WELL, MILLIE WOULD NOT WANT ME TO GO HUNGRY, SO LITTLE TREATS WERE ALWAYS THERE FOR ME.I USE TO CALL HER MY OLD FOZZLE ( WHICH WAS ANOTHER WORD FOR FRIEND ACCORDING TO MY GRANDMOTHER).YES. I WILL MISS MY OLD FOZZLE

I have fond memories of Mrs. Coder teaching us how to do "The Alley Cat"...in the 6th Grade. My condolences to the family.

Mrs. Coder,
I am most grateful to those who took the time to teach me something. Thank You
