Just wanted to let you know, that your mom was our favourite teacher. She taught us in grade two and grade five at Harrow School. We loved her kind and gentle manner, and her artistic ability was amazing. She dressed like a model, and we found her perfume when we were teens and bought it, just to smell like her. I became a teacher and often thought, now what would Miss Nowosad do or say in this situation. Her greatest lesson for us, was to treat everyone with dignity and respect. She will not be forgotton. - Posted by: irene murdoch and barb law (former student) on: Sep 28, 2012
