Chris, Libby, and Tammy; I'm so sorry for your loss. What a shock to hear such. I'll always remember her warm personality, her love for football, and the times we would sled together down icy streets in RR. Cindy was special and so will be her memories.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Matthew 11:25-30
Our prayers are with your family.

I will never forget walking into Belmont my first day as a brand new teacher. I was excited yet afraid, overwhelmed yet felt challenged, nervous yet ready to change the lives of others. I wasn't sure exactly what my first year, yet alone my first day, would bring. However, I had met Mrs. Ott, who would be my assistant,durin g the workdays and knew I was in good hands. She was prepared with all her years of knowledge, she was strong enough to deal with the nervousness of a new teacher, and she seemed so ready to watch me be successful in the classroom. She was my rock and kept me sane through all my first year fears. She took me under her wing and treated me like I was one of her own. I will forever remember Mrs. Ott with much love in my heart.
