Sandy,

Congratulations on your retirement and wonderful career as a teacher! I know you have touched many children's lives throughout the years, including some in this photo. I always wanted to ask why Steve was standing right next to you, probably so he would behave, but in retrospect, you two teachers were his favoirite at Van Meter. Doesn't it seem so long ago?

I know you must have a very long list of all the things you want to do now...and doing them when you want, how you want and where you want. You will be like a butterfly leaving the cocoon of the classroom.

Enjoy!!!

Fondly,
Jeanne Martin
