Wow! Mrs. Fandell was my 3rd grade teacher at Luce Road School. She was great at what she did! Condolences to her family!

Many years ago I worked in Reta's classroom as a teacher aide. She was wonderful to work for. She was a good, caring teacher. All these years later, I live only a few miles north of her son. We both live in western New York. I was privileged to work for her and know her, however briefly. I wish her family comfort in their memories of a special person at this difficult time.
