I am so HAPPY for you!
It was great having you as a teammate! I don't have to tell you to enjoy your retirement because Nannie will love it!

Oh my dear, sweet, loving, smart, kind, considerate former teammate and friend I will miss your smile and loving ways. It was an honor to be your colleague.

I was so lucky to be so close to your room my first few years back at Howitt. I cannot imagine starting my day any other way than seeing your bright smiling face & 1 million bags! There is no one else I would rather share a birthday with. I am so sorry we cannot hug in person and say goodbye. I hope we see each other again in the future so we can make up for that!! Enjoy retirement!

I miss you already. You have filled our hallway with love and positivity. I'm lucky to have been your team-mate, and I will miss being called Mrs. Boland by our mutual students. I've loved our lunchtime walks and chats, and our years of friendship. You are truly one of a kind. Enjoy your time with your family and sweet grand-baby Isla.

tstapleton1 — 2020-06-05 16:02:32 UTC

Don't leave me! I will really miss having you across the hall from me, our impromptu chats, our venting sessions, and our laughter. Who will grab my students when I am late to class? It's been a pleasure getting to know you and hearing about your family. I love seeing pics of Isla and the joy on your face when you speak about her. You have touched so many kids and helped them to make sense of math. I wish you a stress-free and peaceful retirement with NO remote learning! I repeat...NO remote learning! May you continue to be blessed with health, family, friends, and travel. I am really going to miss you at Howitt.
Love you!
Terri

I will always remember meeting you like clock work walking into the main office or the copy room. No words needed to be spoken, just a nod and a smile! You were always so kind to me, always listened to my endless 'can this really be happening" , and "am I doing this right" speeches! You were as bad at google classroom as I was!!
I want to wish you all the best in your retirement with family and friends and when this is over, we will celebrate!!
Lots of love, my friend,
Maryellen
