Laurine, I continue to feel the pains of your absence among us. I feel terribly empty. Yet, you told me to be strong. I am painly trying to fulfill your wish. It is just not that simple. I miss you and will love you forever.

A real teacher. A person that put the students before herself. She was totally committed to the students of Gadsden County. Many times I personally witness Mrs. Dennis in physical pain but would not leave the classroom to care for herself. She will always be a giant among teachers in my eyes. May God continue to bless her family while they are in sorrow but remember your extended family of James A. Shanks Middle School is forever in your debt.
