I'm very sorry for your loss. It's been years since I've seen or talked to Fannie but I still remember her as a pleasant, dedicated and cheerful person when she worked for me as a part-time office clerk at the then-named West Ridge Elementary School when I was appointed its principal in 1972. She was a wonderful woman who will be missed by many.
