I want to extend my condolences to the family and my appreciation for your loving care of your mother. Jean was a favorite math teacher of mine during the short time that she and Bill taught in Spring City. Your parents and mine (H. B. and Mary Galloway) were classmates and life-long friends, sharing love for their community, family and particularly, their children. I will always remember Jean's warm smile.
