Mrs. Dameron was always so sweet and caring. She decorated the Spring Valley Elementary School library with her own beautiful collections of literary items and went to great lengths to help her students grow in their love of reading. Mrs. Dameron continuously encouraged all of us to sample new (to us) authors and titles, and she was always pleased to converse about the fictional lands we were exploring. She was a great listener. I am forever grateful to have known her! My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends during this time of grief.
