Read MoreMs. Cilley was my second grade teacher at University School and had a profound influence on my life.

Thank you Ms. Cilley! You are remembered with fondness and gratitude.

Mrs. Cilley was my first teacher at University School. I am now nearly fifty and working as a financial advisor, but my twin brother and I were greatly influenced by her. Surely she touched hundreds of lives in the same way--a gentle legacy of a life serving others.

Miss Cilley was my daughter's second grade teacher at University School in 1969-70. I remember her as an innovative and kind educator and have always felt fortunate that she was my daughter's teacher,
Rest in peace, Miss Cilley.
