Dr. Schnall was my bio teacher about 10 years ago, she was one of the reasons I began loving plants. She popped up on my facebook memories today and I decided to google her. So sorry to hear of her passing. I will say she did love to talk and spoke often of her beloved and departed husband Herbert the dentist as well as of her children. She adored her family! Your mom is not forgotten!
