Sue was a caring teacher and a friend. My daughter Michelle had a wonderful experience at Montessori by the Sea. I loved this little school and was sad when Michelle graduated kindergarten.
I was shocked at the the traggic way she lost her life and wish to offer my deepest sympathy. We will always remember "Ms. Haynie".

I was a preschool student of Mrs. Haynie's almost ten years ago at Montessori, so I can tell you personally about how patient and kind of a person she was. I will always appreciate her taking the time to help me with what seems like the most simplest of tasks now, but what was so difficult then. I am so sorry for your loss.

Jason, Michael, Ron and family... Sue was such a wonderful lady and I am deeply saddened by her tragic passing. She has touched my life and the life of my students and especially my own children. She always told me that my son, Dominic, reminded her of her son Jason, when he was little. When she was a long term sub in his kindergarten class last year, she made a lasting impact on his life. He always tells me how much he loves her and today tells me how sad he is. She was going to come watch him play baseball this spring but now she will be watching from above. She will always be remembered with a smile on her face and will NEVER be forgotten. I hope you find comfort in knowing how very much she was loved by all who knew her.

Mike- I am saddened by this news and hope you know you are in my prayers for God's peace to comfort you. Both of my parents are now deceased and being surrounded by the love and compassion of friends and family has been such a comfort and source of strength to me. Relating funny stories, memories of vacations and holidays, little moments shared with my mom and dad to my husband helps me Yo feel they are still present. God bless you Mike!

Michael, I don't know you nor did I know your mom; however, reading this story just put a sinking feeling in my stomach.
I can't imagine what this must really feel like for you so I won't say I can.
What I can and will do is pray for you brother. I'm so sorry....
