So much time and so much distance, but you remained an inspiration to me, Miss Ross, as do so many Rosary High teachers. You somehow brought history alive for us - no easy feat - while teaching us so much more. I wonder if you still had those Wizard of Oz Christmas ornaments ... Thanks, Miss Ross.

My thoughts and prayers are with Nora's family at this sad time. Please know that she will be dearly missed by all of us who were blessed with a wonderful teacher and friend. RHS, class of '77: I will cherish memories of Miss Ross, always smiling and always kind. I will never forget the St Louis History field trips. My son was in the RHS class of 2002, so I had the pleasure of knowing her again, as a parent. Although many years had passed, she always called me by name. May God hold you in the...
