    Ryan and all of the family. I am so sorry to hear about Mrs Wilma. Oh how I remember those days in school how she took care of us at lunch and "DOC" with that smile and a friendly hello. My prayers are with all the family at this time. God bless each and everyone. Love and prayers to all of you.
