Mrs Etheridge. I have been trying to find out what happened and seen it on line. I am truly sorry you had to leave us. You taught my daughter in kindergarten and we became awesome friends. You will be missed. We love you. You may be gone but you will never be forgotten. I wish I had seen this earlier so I could attend the service. RIH.
