I am so sorry to hear of dear " Mrs Wester " passing on . She was always lovely in every way ! These recollections of each other's families are so deep in our memories and sadly usually summoned by the passing of one. How fortunate we are to have grown up in a small town where we knew each others familes as we did in Hastings . My sincere condolences to you , Ricky , Tom and Jeanne .

Lea and Pat Varcasia ran the AV dept before the computer days. Her club always ate lunch together and where proud to perform their duties at FMS. 
It was a social club I could never forget. 
Lea had a special way with children as well as the brotherly faculty of FMS. Her heart and smile will be missed but she lives on in the spirit of those who loved her.
