Not sure what to say?

Jan, Betsy and Family,

On behalf of the Glithero Boys, I offer my thoughts and prayers for you at this time of your Mother's passing. I truly enjoyed her fourth grade class and her reading to us. Her ability to make learning fun is a lifelong gift. I also fondly remember your sister Lyn from high school. Although, I am not sure her memories of me were quite so positive!! Remember the good things about your Mother. Keep her in your heart.

Jan, Jim, Betsey and family,
My thoughts are with you during your time of sorrow.
As a fourth grade teacher you Mother found ways to make learning fun. I will always remember the spelling tests and lemon drops.
I am sorry I was unable to make it to the visitation; but I was sitting with two 4-year old nieces.
All of you are in my thoughts and prayers

Jan, Jim, Betsy and family,

Our thoughts are with you during this time of grief.

I feel privileged to have known your Mother as my 4th grade teacher, my high school buddy's Mom, a co-worker when I joined the staff at Shilo Schools and, more importantly, as a lady and friend.

I will never forget your Mother reading to us during "reading hour" after 4th grade recess. She made the stories "jump off the page", particularly memorable was Old Yeller.

Pauline was my favorite teacher. She gave lemon drops if you made a 100 on your spelling test. Every holiday we sponge painted the windows. We visited the Paris jail. We had a picnic in Paris. At the end of school, we went to her house and rode the cart pulled by the horses. She was a lovely lady.

Jan,Betsy, and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I have so many fond memories of spending time with your family. Your mother was very special. May her memory comfort you so that she lives always in your hearts.
With Deepest Sympathy,
Carol Porter Pearson
