OUR CLASS'S FAVORITE HERO!

After all the Super Heroes listed on our poll, the greatest Super Hero to us is our moms! ---And, rightfully so!!! Besides just being a parent, they are our nurses, cheerleaders, counselors, teachers, laundresses, cooks, chauffeurs, homework queens, music practice taskmaster, spiritual advisors, and much, much more! My mom taught school for 38 years! She taught in a two room schoolhouse in Touquerville, and also taught in Hurricane, St. George, and three different schools in Sandy. She taught 2nd grade, but taught the majority of her years in 1st grade. She retired 10 years ago. Since my father passed away 5 years ago, she has been helping my brother run the family business! She has 2 children, 6 grandchildren (5 spouses), and 7 great grandchildren! Her favorite hobby is being "Grandma Dixie!"
Here's a picture of "Grandma Dixie" with granddaughter, Ashley and great grandson, Preston; and granddaughter-in-law, Lori, with great granddaughter, Haley.
