Carol, I'm going to miss the text messages and favorite music times we shared. Our tastes were so similar. I really enjoyed your choices.
I spent 25 years teaching mostly in first grade, many with you as team teacher. Our best years were while in the old building! We also spent a year in one room that was divided by tote tray holders and Carol and I could see each other and hear everything the other said. That was interesting teaching! I'm going to miss her sense of humor, her smile, and her caring manner. Remembering the good times!
Sons and family... You were very special to Carol.

Carol & I met in 1970 when I began my teaching career at Middletown Elementary School .
She was in the " old building" across the hall from Carlotta Hayes .
What loving teachers they both were.
Carol & I taught together many, many years . She loved kids . She loved people & had a beautiful smile .
Way back when , I would go to her house & " frost" her hair in the kitchen . I remember the boys running around
So sorry for your loss . Treasure your memories . She touched so many lives ...

My prayers go out to your family. I first met Mrs. Watson, while in 11th grade back in 1975 at Middletown High School. I was a student aide for her, Mrs. Brandenburg, and Mrs. Pritts helping students with achieving reading and math skills. Your mom was a kind, caring, and gentle soul that truly loved teaching these little ones. I will never forget her sweet words when I lost my grandma. My heart was broken but she told me to hold fast to all the good memories we had. And so I say to you in your time of sorrow, hold fast to your memories. Susan Smith (Teachers helper)

She was my first grade teacher. I can't tell you how thrilled I was when she was also my son's first grade teacher. I have always had fond memories of her.
We are sorry for your loss.
