I worked with Miss Purple on a special Ed. School bus. We had every type of special needs riders imaginable. Miss Purple could handle it all. Feel very fortunate to have worked with her. She made my job easier and kids ride home safer. But most of all she made things fun. A special ability or talent. She had a gift. Anyone who knew her will never forget her. Thanks Miss Purple and I miss you dearly. Gary K.
