Thank you, Marilyn Cockrum and Tasha Reeves for your help during the Jr. Beta Convention. I gave them an itinerary (because it's hard for me to be in two places at once) and they took care of business. It's so WONDERFUL to work at a school with such caring and hardworking teachers as Mrs. Cockrum and Mrs. Reeves. THANKS AGAIN!
