Miss Donnelly.......a name that will always be special to me. Miss Donnelly taught in high school many years ago, her gental nature and understanding way of knowing what we as teenagers were going through helped many become better citizens of today. She always had the time to speak talk to me and others when there were troubling times in our lives during those formative years. She will always be in our thoughts and your family in my prayers.
