I graduated from Mineral Springs in 1959. Ms. Langley made Latin meaningful and possibly without knowing it, made English and later Spanish easier and more enjoyable.

I was one of Mrs Langleys Latin students. She was a sweet woman, and I have thought of her many times over the years. I moved away from that area many years ago, but I have never forgotten Mrs Langley and Latin. She used to say that Latin is a dead language, as dead as it can be, it killed off all the Romans, and now it's killing me.
I offer my deepest sympathy to her family at this time.
Sincerely,
