Did she teach English at Bellingrath in 1965? If so, I loved her! He gave me a charm that was the keybto success for my Bat Mitzvah. She was a very good English teacher. Ms. Grimmer was strict, but very nice.

She was my best friend at Lanier. We sang in the glee club together. We managed to meet again at two class reunions, and wrote nearly every day via E Mail. She was a sweet loving person to whom family meant everything. She often said all her dreams came true. May you sing with the anels. From Gerry Morton Morgan, Class of 1956
