Darlene, this Ms. Dianne, your third grade teacher at St. E. I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your father, whom I did not know but because you were such a precious student, and your mother who was so sweet, I’m sure he was a wonderful father and husband, as well as a fine person. Keep your memories close to you heart and please convey my condolences to all. Sincerely, Ms. Dianne Dianne Hollier, formerly of Port Neches.
