Miss Manser was one of my favourite teachers, I am very sorry to hear of her passing. Grade 2 at Johnson Memorial seems like a lifetime ago, but my memories are still quite vivid. I remember her wearing Green and Yellow on game day, and telling us all about the Packers win or loss the next day. I remember singing a lot in her class, with a booklet full of songs. One comes to mind in particular, "If you can't say something nice, SHHH! Say nothing!" I remember her teaching us to tell time, all seated around her chair at the front of the classroom. I remember her always having a sort of "show and tell" that allowed students to share something with the class. Every time, I got up there and told a story, whether fictional or true. I'm sure it was both funny and annoying for her at times, but she never held me back. Some teachers you forget, some you resent, and others have a lasting positive affect on your life. Miss Manser affected me, and I am so grateful to have had the privilege of being in her class. Thank you, and may you rest in peace Margaret.

Dear Mildred and Family, I am so sorry to hear of Margaret's passing. She was a wonderful person who dedicated her life to her students and she so cared for her work associates. She was a special friend to me. Margaret rest in peace. Cathy.

"Miss Manser" was a favourite teacher of our kids when they attended Johnston Memorial School. They all have special memories of her, including her cheering for her favourite football team, the Green Bay Packers. Thanks for the memories as Grade 3 teacher at Johnston.
