I was thinking, there are not that many of my teachers still living.

Mrs. Bessie Atchley,1st grade, deceased 

Miss Hettie Bell Eldridge, 2nd grade, deceased

Mrs. Joyce Conley, 3rd grade, deceased

Mrs. Geneva Waterman, 4th grade (b. Nov 8, 1907 d. July 20, 2001)

Mrs. Alice Widner, 5th grade, Johnny's wife, deceased

Mr. Wheeler, 6th grade, ? not sure

Curley White and Mr. Medley, 7th grade, both deceased

Mr. Berry and Mr. Meador, 8th grade, both still living

High School, those I can remember

Mr. Huge Winkle, deceased, taught history, was principle

Sue Winkle, think she is still living, she didn't teach me much, because I do not even remember what she taught

Mr. Rue Griffith, deceased, not sure that I actually had him as a teacher, he was the superintendent

Mr. & Mrs. Smith taught science and English, both gone, both good teachers

Mr. Sam Medley, above Mr. Medley's son, at least I think it was Sam, think he is still living

I forget the name of the home ec teacher, but I did not take home ec anyway

Mr. Kent, from Mt. Judea, deceased

Johnny Widner and Mr. Grimm sometimes taught PE as well as sports, both gone

Fayrene taught typing, business courses, and was over the newspaper and annual publication

I know I have more teachers than that, but I can not remember any others. It is odd that I can remember all my grade school teachers clearly, but the high school teachers have faded from my memory.
