WE SEE THINGS THAT OTHERS DON’T Friends remember Rita Masley Friends, family members and former co-workers of the late Ri- ta Masley worked hard to keep alive the memory of the beloved Dallas Elementary School secre- tary who died of lung cancer ear- lier this year. Their hard work paid off re- cently when “Rita’s Reading Cor- ner” officially opened. Located in the Dallas Elemen- tary School Library, the reading corner is filled with approxi- mately 1,000 books that have been donated in Masley’s memo- ry by friends, family, faculty, staff, students and parents. Each book has a dedication plate which has the name of the per- son or group who donated the book. Carolyn Cooper, a fourth grade teacher at the Dallas Ele- mentary School, was the coordi- nator of the project. Mrs. Brenda Burkhardt, also a fourth grade teacher at the school, took con- tributions of everyone’s favorite memories of Masley and com- posed a poem that was read at the dedication ceremony. Through monetary donations, the group was also able to pur- chase a padded bench for the stu- dents to sit on and a large wood- en bookshelf to hold all the do- nated books. The Dallas Elemen- tary PTO purchased a gliding rocking chair for the corner. DARLING & SONS’ FARMS & GREENHOUSES “Growing Quality Is A Family Business Since 1930” Buy from the Grower and SAVE!!
