Dear Family Members,
Mrs. Key (as I knew her) was my 5th grade teacher at Creswell School. She was a wonderful woman who loved children and served as a loving teacher to us. I renewed my acquaintance with her when she lived next door to my mother in their assisted living facility in Shreveport.
I was saddened to hear of her death and want you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with your family.
