Condolences

From:     Rose-Marie McGuire
Relation: Former Student

Please accept my sympathy at this sad time.  In 1955 at Washington Avenue School, Mrs. Nuhn was my teacher.  In my album of photos there is a picture of the grocery store in our classroom that she set up to teach us how to count change.  I am proud to be the shopper in that picture.  Everytime I see the picture memories of Mrs. Nuhn make me smile.  Her gentleness and caring spirit are but a few of my memories.  She is truly one of my favorite teachers.  Thank you for sharing her with me and each student whose life she touched.  My thoughts and prayers are with you.
