You’re always there with the help and the answer. The 1st year you were here, you put a summer birthday card in my campus mailbox. What a classy thing to do.

I miss seeing you as I walk from the English corridor to my classes. You are not only super-efficient, but you are also very thoughtful and compassionate. I cannot count the number of ways you have stepped in to help. I will list a few that I am thankful for—listening to me quietly when I get frustrated and complain, alerting my students when I am stuck in traffic, cleaning up the clutter in the office hallway,….most importantly for actually “doing” your “job” and much more with a calm smile. Thank you!

First and foremost thank you for always having my favorite chocolate on hand.  Not only did it feed my sweet tooth, but it gave me an excuse to chat with you!  It might not seem like much, but it made me feel more connected to the department during the semester.  I think of you in your office as the "you are here" arrow on a map!  You grounded me to Grossmont and helped me get my bearings.  You are so kind, open and approachable.  Thank you for being so sweet to me!
