Ms. Wimberly was my 2nd grade teacher and I remember her being such a great teacher and fun memories of her falling asleep in class. She would also keep us straight, throughout the years after 2nd grade she would always see us and give us life lessons. About 5 years ago I had the pleasure of seeing her again. Still remembers me and other students all these years later. She will be missed, she puts the T in teacher. Rest in peace
