"To the Flaherty family, I am sorry for your loss. Mrs. Flaherty was my first grade teacher in, I believe, 1967 at Forest Avenue Elementary. The fact that I remember that from 53 years ago speaks to the effect she had on the young minds she educated. To this day I remember her as strong and demanding but kind. God bless your family in this difficult time. John Pagac "
