I miss Ms Triplett! She was my librarian in PS181Q Brookfield School...I remember her being tall just like me She gave us our most like to be when we graduated 6th grade and mine was Most Likely To Be A Hight Fashion Model and I still have my certificate lol that made me cry just now. I don´t know how she knew that´s what I wanted, but she knew us all each one of us got our own and it all said something different a class of over 50 kids lol and she knew us all. I didn´t know she passed and I´m sad about that also ....Love always Chantal McLean class of 1997.... (I don´t know if I have any pics I´ll have to check my moms albums)
