My deepest sympathies go to the family of Barbara Brown. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. As Principal of Stillson Elementary School in Chippewa Falls many years ago, Barbara was one of my teachers who filled the position of 5th grade teacher. She was such a kind and caring person and attended well to the needs of the children. She was adored by many of the staff as well as the children. She will be missed. Blessings to Kari and Allen and families. I know she thought so much of her children. Pat
