Dear Ken and Jenn
Your mom was my Grade Five teacher in the early 1960's. She was a very tall, very thin Miss Bethel. She had the most comforting smile for a scared, little girl who had jumped from Grade Three to Grade Five. She gave me confidence and always shared a quiet smile "You can do it, Cathy". She led the choir and, at Christmas I always sing 'Bring your torch, Jeanette Isabella' with her in mind. I know she touched many lives - students, parents and teaching partners. I hope you are comforted in knowing that she left this world a better place. She made a difference! My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. Cathy
