I remember Ms Grove fondly from Barboursville Middle when she was the "lunch secretary" and I was an office worker; she always had time to be kind to me. My sympathies to her family.

Hello Terry, If you are seeing this, I want you to know how sorry I am to hear of your mother's passing. I worked with your mother at the school for awhile. She was always very friendly and funny. My condolences to you and your family.
