I taught at Foster with Benneline from 1979 until she retired. I remember so many fun times as a 3rd grade team member. Once during pre-planning, the team went to lunch at their family business, Louis' Lunch, I don't think I'll ever forget the time she & I had afternoon bus duty & the bus taking the children EAST had broken down.. WELL, she spots an empty school bus heading WEST on 39th Ave. & runs across 2 lanes of traffic to hail this bus. Not only did she stop the bus........she convinced the driver to take them home!! Amazing!! May fond memories of this special woman linger in your hearts for many years.

Mrs. Pennisi was my 2nd and 3rd grade teacher. I loved her so much. I was able to visit with her at The Village in the last few years and I brought my class picture. She remembered every child in that picture (1973). I know she is walking the streets of gold today and I look forward to when I see her again.

This family represented the heart of Gainesville; I taught with Bennilene at Foster and she taught several of my children. She was a sweet lady and a good example to so many.
