I am celebrating you today--the thousands of lives you have touched, the wisdom you have so generously shared and the beautiful journey that lies ahead. In honor of your retirement, I am posting a poem by Gwendolyn Brooks.<br />I was at my happiest, sitting on the back porch,<br />to sit there and look out at the western sky<br />with all those beautiful changing clouds<br />and just to dream about the future,<br />which was going to be ecstatically exquisite,<br />like those clouds.”<br /><br />Your most exquisite days are just ahead of you Mary Lee.

I quickly learned to appreciate and admire your forthrightness, your strength and courage, your love of children's lit, and you love of teaching. I have learned from you. You made me a better editor. I have enjoyed our conversations over the years, and am proud to call you a friend. Bet of luck to you in retirement. And don't be a stranger.

Your creativity, ingenuity, commitment, bravery, and honesty are strengths that are not always found all together in one person. But in you, Mary Lee, they are combined to be the outstanding person we have all come to Respect with a capital R! <br /><br />The teaching profession will be devoid of one incredible teacher next fall. But all your former students and your colleagues will continue to grow and change from the inspiration you have given each of us in so many different ways. We wish you the best in your retirement. Now, go out and celebrate! You deserve it! <br /><br />Lynn and Bob SalemJosiestewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15514590091771290112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-88398468859903184272021-05-21T08:44:22.447-04:002021-05-21T08:44:22.447-04:00How could we not? https://myjuicylittleuniverse.bl...How could we not? https://myjuicylittleuniverse.blogspot.com/2021/05/marvelousmarylee.html<br />Heidi Mordhorsthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16496427007514895950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-21472094965488345132021-05-21T08:01:13.973-04:002021-05-21T08:01:13.973-04:00"A Beam of Light: In Honor of Mary Lee Hahn&q..."A Beam of Light: In Honor of Mary Lee Hahn" can be found here, Mary Lee, with love: https://lizgartonscanlon.com/2021/05/a-beam-of-light-in-honor-of-mary-lee-hahn/Liz Garton Scanlonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17941516645386392684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-30195169927180984372021-05-21T07:46:30.475-04:002021-05-21T07:46:30.475-04:00A memory to you Mary Lee.
