    Ginger was a great colleague. She had a wry sense of humor and was extraordinarily devoted to her student. She knew her subject well and knew how to communicate that information to her pupils. I shall miss her. Mary and I will say more that a few prayers for her. George and Mary Coombs, Naples Florida

    Ms. Mello, was my 9th, 10th & 11th grade english teacher. I was happy to learn when I was a freshman, that she taught my mom, aunt, uncle, & a few family friends. She is the teacher I remember best & I loved her for the wonderful & awesome lady she was. I will miss her, & I pretty sure there's a lot of my classmates that would tell you all the same. May God bless her & keep her safe. May God all of her family as well. Sean E LaPlante, TSgt, USAF.
