On and off for the last 30 years I thought about her. She was my favorite teacher ever, no one came close. She was one of the first people I felt really loved me. I can remember taking her vitamins daily in class while eating bread and bananas. She was so genuine. I know if I had mustard the courage to tell her about things I was going thru at home she would have gotten me help. She was my safe space before I knew what a safe space was. This woman meant the world to me and I will forever love and admire her. The don't make them like her anyone. Rest In Peace
