Sorry to hear of Aunt Eleanor’s passing. Thinking of you all at this sad time. May she Rest In Peace.
“Miss Case” was my Grade IV teacher at Jackson Memorial School on Bell Island. She was such a marvellous teacher in every way that I only have wonderful memories of her.. (I could write a book.) She was my inspiration to become a teacher, encouraging me in any way that she could.
She has certainly had a life well lived!
May God bless “Miss Case” and may she rest in peace.
A pleasure to have known “Aunt Eleanor”…Thinking of you all.
