I remember when Miss Fiscella was hired at Lewis Champlin. We had no one like her before. All at once music came alive. I graduated in 1951.

Miss Fiscella, you were my first teacher at Graham school when I moved there from Vis. remember how you loved to sing during our music programs and how you worked with us for our holiday shows and graduation. God's rest and thank you for your dedication to the kids of Canaryville and Graham school.

Miss Fiscella was my music teacher at Graham School way back when. She was one of the nicest and understanding teachers I ever had. The President Kennedy was shot we had been to recess but had to come in and Miss Fiscella made us sing all sorts of Patriotic songs in his honor. I day I will never forget. Miss Fiscella was a legend in her own time. RIP

Miss Fiscella was one of my favorite teachers at Graham elementary school in Canaryville in 1967. She was so good with the kids. I have fond memories of singing Glow Worm and the New Ashmolian Marching Society and Students Conservatory Band during music class.

You were an inspiring music teacher in the 1950s at Lewis-Champlin elementary School. We all adored you and the excitement you brought to our classes. God bless you for your positive influence on generations of children.
Sincerely, Jeannine Latta Noe Class of Jan. 1951
