My condolences go out to the family of Mrs. Leary.
I will be praying for peace, comfort and strength for the family. She was a beautiful person with a passion for teaching Science. The last I remembered seeing her was at one of the class reunions, the Class of 84 of Eastern High had.
May her soul rest in peace.
