So sorry to hear of Mrs. Morrison passing. I was fortunate enough to have her as my teacher in my early years at Oxbow. There was a group of ten of us who met each day for English. I can still remember her morning puzzlers on the chalkboard which always caught our attention. She had a way of making us all feel very special and really knew how to bring out our best qualities! Although this was many years ago, I still use some of her practices/tips when helping my kids with their homework. She truly was a wonderful lady. Rest peacefully💕

Sad to hear the news. Sue Anne was a great cousin we were always happy to see, but rarely able to cross paths. She was always joyful to talk with. Sue Anne would often tie-in with my parents thru out their life. She put a lot of research into creating the Coxon Family Genealogy Tree & shared with all. Its always good to tie in often with your friends & relatives. You never know when you will never see them again.

I am sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Morrison. I was fortunate to have her at Oxbow Public School. She had a unique way of pushing, and inspiring her students to their best. Her genuine way of caring for her students and other staff will not be forgotten. May she rest in peace

Dear Tracy, Chris, Doug, Elaine and families, I was so sad to hear the news of Sue Anne. She had such a ready smile and a lovely, warm manner. I enjoyed our visits at the dental office several years ago, when we'd reminisce about Zurich and the people we knew. I know you'll miss her greatly. Sending my deepest sympathy and much love to all.

Tracy and Chris So sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. Sue was one of the most loving and caring teachers that I have ever met. She always had the student's best interest in mind and had such a caring, loveable, quiet manner to get through to them. She met so much to my children and also to me. Sending my deepest sympathy.

Tracy, Chris, Doug, Elaine and grandchildren, Our deepest sympathy to all of Sue's family. She was a childhood friend and we spent a lot of fun times together back then.

I was saddened to hear of Sue Anne's passing. We were classmates at Zurich Public School from Grade one on and also in high school. We connected again a few years ago on Facebook although never a chance to meet up in person. My condolences to your family.

Dear Tracy and Chris: I am truly sorry to hear of your mother's passing. We had many wonderful years working together at Oxbow School. I have a Christmas figurine sitting on my coffee table right now that she gave me one year. I remember having coffee with her one day a few years back after we were both retired and she was telling me about the book she was writing for her grandchildren. Many days after school I would wander down to her classroom and chat about what was going on. All fond memories indeed. Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your's as you struggle through the dark days ahead. Sincerely, Marian Smibert.
