Honoring Sue Felker…
Today I mourn the passing of Sue Felker, my school- based personal care assistant from 4th grad until the day I graduated. Before her I had 3 other assistants. Mrs. Felker was around to celebrate all the moments that matter in a young woman’s life- first period, first day of high school, and acceptance into college (I got into my first choice, by the way!).
We fought at times. It was hard to be an independent minded teenager, who always needed help from an adult. But she was, I knew even I was frustrated at times, a friend who was there to help me study and evolve.
My thoughts and prayers are with her husband, daughter, grandchildren, and the many people who loved her.
