A Tribute

A great woman passed away in the wee hours of this morning. Her name was Catherine Koerth. She was 93 years old. She spent 40 years of her life teaching children in rural Texas. She was my 6th grade teacher. She was my inspiration. She was my ideal of what a teacher should be. She was my friend. If I am half the teacher she was then I think I've done well!

The greatest thing I can tell you about Mrs. Koerth is that she walked with Jesus. She was a wonderful Christian lady. She will be missed. She will not be forgotten. Rest in peace, dear lady. Your legacy lives on.
