I am so sadden to hear this news but know that because of the way she represented her family, our school, and her community, that she is in the inner circle (so to speak). I was blessed with a host of great teachers and she certainly was one of those leading the way. I really wish I would have told her how much I respected her and then thanked her for everything she did in trying to educate all of us who attended Holice Powell. Mrs. Weakley will always have a place in my heart and she will forever be missed.
