Mrs. Knecht was my kindergarten teacher in 1974 at McNair elementary. She was a kind, and I loved her. May you rest easy Mrs. Knecht

I had Mrs. Knecht as my kindergarten teacher at McNair elementary in 1979/1980. She was really nice. I remember sitting on the floor of the room while she read to us, the art projects for holidays...good memories! My sister had her the following year for kindergarten after McNair closed and everyone got moved to Thorne elementary.

Dear Doris invited me to sit with her when I was first at St. Paul's and we touched bases every Sunday in her kind, pleasant, warm manner. We sent Christmas cards after I left St. Paul's and I was delighted to hear of her 100 years. My sympathy to all who will dearly miss her.

I worked with Doris at McNair School in Westwood Scool District. She was always smiling and only interested in how to help her kindergarteners grow.
