Miss Nulph was a wonderful mentor to me when I started at Punxsutawney Area School District. I am the Deaf Support Teacher and she was their first grade teacher. She was also my son´s first grade teacher- still one of his favorites! Miss Nulph was an incredibly sweet person who spoke so highly of her family especially Paula. I learned so much from her. Parents and other teachers always spoke so highly of her. My sympathies to the family.

I remember you teaching the class how to count using the little dots on each number, which was on the wall behind your desk. That was many years ago but it has stuck with me since then and i still use it. I also remember the little treasure chest in your classroom that we got to pick things from. May you rest in peace knowing you made a difference. Thank you for everything
