Dear Yvonne, you always was there to help a fledgling teacher in the NISD schools. I frequently asked your advice on various topics. You never steered me wrong. For that I have always been grateful. I know you are looking down on us now and smiling at some of our antics. Enjoy your new home and please pray for us to be able to join you later. Love you, Marie
