Facebook Twitter GoogleI am sorry to learn of Mrs. Moore’s passing. She was my Latin teacher at Clinton Central, and I have always appreciated the great foundation to language I learned in her class. I went on to be a high school Spanish teacher. She was always a very kind, patient, and caring teacher.

Facebook Twitter GoogleMrs. Moore left a mark on me as she did on many. Her calm and grace were remarkable. She was my Latin teacher for two years and health teacher for one. It was nice to be able to see her a few years ago when I still worked at Arnett ER. She still remembered me and all my siblings by name. I was so sorry to hear of her passing, but know she led a long, full life.
