I didn't know Mrs. Marshall but I am an education major at E&H and had seen her around the school when I was observing and she always had a smile on. I hope that I can be as wonderful of a teacher as she was someday because she has been an amazing inspiration to me. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and faculty/students at MES.

There is not enough words that can express how truly sorry I am for the loss of Rosa. My heart is broken for her entire family. She had such a short time on this earth BUT in that short time she has made such a difference in so many people's life. She was such an amazing and beautiful woman. Her smile could light a room up and was so contagious. She was full of wisdom and had so much knowledge. We have lost such a special person but heaven has gained an amazing angel. Rosa I will never forget you and thank you for all those lives that you have touched.

Mrs. Marshall
Was a great person inside and out I know I had the chance to meet her one time when she was picking up Baylee and Chandler for a Christmas party. You can see that she has a heart for kids. And that day was so hard for baylee all we could do is cry because you consider a part of the family not just a teacher. But I thank God for teachers like you because of taking good care of our grand-daughter Baylee who loved you so much. Our heart and prays go out to both famlies and friends and staff at the school always and forever. God bless Baylee Garrett's grand parents.

April 24, 2010

As I am preparing to finish up college and become a headstart teacher. This is the way I hope everyone remebers me when I depart my earthly home for my hevenly home. It breaks my heart to know such a wonderful teacher was taken away. I know as a substitute teacher assistant just what a wonderful job it is to teach children.

There is not many words to express how deeply Mrs. Marshall will be missed by my family and Baylee. Baylee loved her so much and as well as a teacher but like a second mom. For the last two years she got to go to her home for Christmas parties which Baylee loved so much and meeting Mr. Marshall to. She had such a big heart for people and took Baylee under her wing like a mother would do. I know that she is in the arms of an angel now. It will take some time for our hearts to heal from the loss but she will not every be forgotten. We will love you forever and till the day we meet again real know that we miss you and love you. And every tear that we shed is of joy that we will see you soon again Mrs. Rosa Marrell F. Marshall She has such a caring heart too.

To the family of Rosa Ferguson Marshall. I remember in school she always had a smile even if she wasn't having the hottest day. If she was around and you were down, she always lifted you up and brought a smiling face upon you. Rosa--I will miss you, but you are in a joyous place that I will meet you there.
