From a classmate and a friend, LaNora , Mary, Ozella and the entire family of Mrs. Margaree. I am so heartbroken for your loss. I am so thankful and great full I got to meet her, oh she was as beautiful in spirt as she was in image. I really loved Mrs. Margaree. She was strict but firm she would let you know right from wrong and we all needed to know that growing up in our high school years. Her doors were open to children as well as adults. Oh my, what a great cook, everybody was welcome you don’t hear of that anymore. Mrs. Harris you will be truly missed by millions. I could go on and on but I will leave with these words she lived a great life from the time I met her treating people right. LaNora hang in there be strong for everybody. If it wasn’t for the pandemic I would be there. My condolences I send.
