She was my typing teacher in 7th grade at Whitesburg Middle School in Huntsville around 1980. She was also mother of my best friend, Keith, of nearly 40 years, who passed away last June. She was a very nice and respectful lady.
Mrs Daniel’s was a teacher of mine back in the late 70s. I also had the privilege of attending church with Daniel’s in the same time period. Mrs Daniel’s was always supportive, helpful and led by example.
Always enjoyed having Wanda as a coworker at Lee High School. She shaped many of her students’ lives with her high standards
