My deepest sympathy to the family. Mary Hamilton Kohanowski was my very favorite elementary school teacher at 67th Street School in Milwaukee. She was a very special lady and she will always be in my heart. She was gentle, kind and sweet and always had a smile for everyone. God bless her for all that she gave to us.
