Mary Alice,
I am so grateful for the time that I had with you, and you were a blessing to the Everest community. From being our Excel whiz to gaining the trust of some of our most challenging students, you brought your whole heart and mind to this work and I/we so deeply appreciated you. I can’t tell you how many times you came up in team meetings after you left: "Oh Mary Alice could have done that easily" or "Oh Mary Alice was so great at that" or "Oh I wish Mary Alice was still here!" Your memory inspired me — and will continue to inspire me — to be the best educator that I can be, and I want to thank you for your impact on me and our community.
