Condolence & Memory Journal
Mrs. Day was my first grade teacher 29 years ago (1989-1990) at the North School (now Dawe Elementary) in Stoughton. We speak of her fondly in my family (my wife's family as well) even after all these years. You could see her house from the school's front entrance, and she was proud to live in the town and in the neighborhood in which she taught. She set great lifelong examples for her students and she will not be forgotten!

WHERE EVER A BEAUTIFUL SOULD HAS BEEN, OUR LOVE FOR THEM WILL NEVER END. .....
As a member of the Norwood Debs for years I feel I can say on behalf of the Debs how much Sue meant to all of us. When us girls had a problem, we always felt we could turn to George and Sue, and we were always welcomed with love and understanding. We thank you Sue for all that you have been and all that you have shared with all of us.
You will remain in my heart, always.
