“Natalie and Teri, My heart goes out to you in the passing of your sweet mother. I am.sure my mom and your mom are reunited now, and catching up! I think both had a big influence on my choosing speech pathology as a profession, looking back. They had some good times at Sherwood Elementary together. Wishing you peace......Dawn Phillips”
