Words cant express the emptiness I feel while walking through the halls of SFdS knowing that you will not be visiting us any longer in person. Your spirit will live on in the school as all the staff and students cherish our memories of you. I am sorry I was unable to attend the services but know I was there in spirit. Matthew was truly blessed to have you as a teacher although only for a short time. You will be forever missed. Shine bright Lovely Lady!

What a wonderful teacher, what a wonderful woman... I was heart broken to hear the news. She was such a great teacher to me in grade 3 and someone I was always so happy to run into with such a lovely smile. She took the time to write on my father's guestbook after he passed, and I can't believe now I am writing on hers. May she rest in peace and her family find comfort in her amazing legacy. Descanse em paz... Susie da Silva and family

Saying goodbye
Is a very hard thing to do
We never thought we would
Not to you.

You always listened
Knew what to say
When to give a hug
And if we were having a bad day.

No one can ever take your place
We will promise you this
To find someone like you is so hard
Always know you'll be missed
Always know you'll be in our hearts

Margaret Thank you for being you.
