I was so saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Sabatini. I was fortunate to have her as my teacher for both fifth and sixth grade, and I can´t think of another educator who had such a profound impact on my life.

She made learning fun and joyful, and she brought so much kindness and positivity to the classroom. She was incredibly supportive and helped build my self-esteem during a challenging time in my childhood. She was a truly special teacher and a role model to all of her students.

I can only imagine how many lives she touched in such a meaningful way. I´m so grateful to have known her and to have been one of her students.

While I know this is an incredibly difficult time for her family, I hope it brings some comfort to know how deeply she was loved, respected, and remembered by those whose lives she shaped.

Forty years of friendship with Pat will never be forgotten. She led a courageous fight to try to regain her health these past months. I will so miss your engaging smile, Pat. Rest in Peace, my friend.
