God chose the beautiful American beauty the rose to add to her heavenly bouquet in the mansion he has prepared for her. Your mom taught me in 4th grade at L.P. Jackson ES.in Dendron, Va. She was the role model helping me to become a teacher, now retired. I am Doris Wooden Adkins' baby sister ,Marion Wooden Johnson. Rest in peace my beloved 4th grade teacher.

To The Family Of Mrs. Addie Henderson:

I was sorry to hear of the loss of this great person. Mrs. Henderson was my 5th. grade teacher at L. P. Jackson, Dendron, Va. She was one of the most beautiful people I have ever met. She was kind and very caring. I would see her later in my years at the mall or elsewhere and she always knew me and called me by name. You could always count on her having a smile on her face. I will always remember her as a caring and very nice person.

After the pain of losing a love one such as this, then you will remember the great times you shared with her and that will comfort you. You all have my sympathy.
