Madam Arman,
You were an awesome teacher! I looked forward to coming to French class and messing around and trying to learn French. You put up with my sister Kayla and I in the same class and that isn't easy! You kept the mock trial team together when we thought about giving up. You saw the good in things even when they seemed dismal. I know there are people who are hurting but we know you are in a better place. Our thoughts are with your family during this time. We will miss you!

I am so sorry to hear of Michele's recent illness and passing. Michele was a good friend and teacher. I knew her thru North High School...I was the Executive Secretary there. Please know I will be thinking of you and your family in the days/months to come. She was a very nice young lady. She will be missed greatly.
