Mrs. Walker was my student a couple of years ago. She always did her work with a smile. She would give other students good advice about school. My condolences to the family! She will be missed at DTCC. - Kathye Perry, Instructor
I met Letecia at Durham Technical Community College. She always came to school early and always stopped by my office just to say, "good morning," with a big smile on her face. Then she would say, "just checking on ya." She was always kind and very pleasant to talk to. I will definitely miss her smile and her laughter. May you rest in peace Letecia.
Your Durham Tech Family, Mrs. O'Keishe L. Gregory
