Donya Mi Amore! What an incredible career! I may have dropped your French class when I was in 10th grade, but I will always cherish our work together on Ma’avar during my “second tour of duty” as a member of the faculty. I will never forget your kindness, your openness, and your willingness to do everything for your students AND your coworkers. Enjoy retirement!
