Mrs. Hill (Ms.Wheeler) at the time was a teacher at Worth county middle school. She was well known in my family and grew up in the same church. The interactions I had with her as a teacher was incredible. She made me feel safe and I learned so much from here. This was back in 2007-2008. She was a sweetheart and even in my adult life she was the same. I will miss you always and I will pray for your beautiful family. It was a pleasure experiencing your beautiful soul. ❤️ -Tashie.
