  1. She was always so cheerful, and was a great cook. I looked forward to lunch at school. Between Mrs. Novak and Mrs. Moser, we always had good eats. I always made it a point to complement them. It was easier to get seconds that way! God bless and keep the family as they say farewell until later!

  2. I remember Mrs. Novak too. So friendly to us kids. I recall them just like it was yesterday, Mrs. Gausman, Mrs. Novak, Mrs. Moser, Mrs. Vossler. All truly part of the greatest generation. May they all have a peaceful eternity as the Lord blesses their big hearts.
