Williamsville Education Association members wish to thank all those at the NEA convention for helping our good friend and co-worker, Gary Miller, through this tragedy. Those of us in the Williamsvile-Sherman school district, while feeling helpless and lost because of the distance involved, are grateful that there are so many people to support Gary and his daughters in our absence. We have lost a dear friend in Sharon. The world is a sadder place without her.

Well said, Fran. I hope the Millers know that there are many, many families in Central Illinois keeping them in our prayers. We wish there was more that we could do. Vivian Lefferts and famliy
