fess..i heard the news this morning at basketball practice and tears filled my eyes...i know you are going to a better place now..but i just missed you so much...i really wanted you as a teacher this year..but i just prayed for you to get better..don't worry though you have a good sub..you'll always be in my thoughts and prayers..and i'll never forget anything about you or how you used to yell "ellis" down the hall to get my attention~stay strong and make sure they treat you right up there...i love you sooooo much! love, tara ellis
