Mrs. Rainey was my elementary gifted teacher. She was so sweet. On my 1st day of kindergarten, I got separated from my class. She helped me find my class. I remember going on field trips in her blue Oldsmobile. She took my 5th grade class on a "senior trip" to Vicksburg. I will always remember Mrs. Rainey.

Bob & I were exceedingly blessed to have served the Lord with Margaret at WOL. She was truly beautiful inside out. All who had the joy of meeting Margaret received a touch of God.
