I just want to extend my condolences to Mrs. Horn's family. She was a very special lady. I just had to share with her family the positive impact that she had as a teacher on my life. When asked what teacher has had the most impact on my life, my answer is Mrs. Horn. Mrs. Horn was my third grade teacher when she taught at Ss. Peter and Paul in Waterloo. I was a tiny eight year old girl who had very little self-confidence and did not think that I was very smart. Mrs. Horn took me under her wing and made me believe in myself and showed me that I truly was a smart girl. As a result of her inspiration, I became a teacher. Next year will be my last year of teaching. I truly hope that I have had the same positive impact on at least one of my students' lives that Mrs. Horn had on mine. Thank you, Mrs. Horn!
