Hi, I often thought about Madame Payette over the years and this morning I saw the Payette last name on a television program and it brought me back to my elementary school years. I looked up her name on the internet and found that she had passed away several years ago. I want to send you my condolences. She was a truly wonderful teacher in my grade 4 year....going back to 1981. RIP Madame Payette.

My thoughts are with your family at this time. Mrs. Payette was my Grade 4 teacher at Crane School, she was a gifted teacher. Mrs. Payette also went to High School with my Mom, Joan Sundell Tolton. My Mom was from Holland. May all your cherished memories help you through this difficult time. - Posted by: Aileen Tolton Mowat (Acquaintance) on: Nov 19, 2005
