We were at the beginning of all of it and now our daughters race up and down courts and fields and do not even know how lucky they are to feel so normal. Which is how it should be. She was one the first people on the battle lines. Just think how lonely it must have felt. She really accomplished something. RIP Ms. Anderson

Ms. Anderson was my Gym teacher at McAuley in 1989! She could be nutty, fun and just a character! We laughed a lot in gym class! May she rest in peace.

Fond memories of Belle as a student in her class and as a fellow teacher at McAuley! I wil always remember my lovely green gym suit and my sparkling clean tennis shoes.
