Ms. Kolesar was my Grade 5 teacher at Alexander; she was firm, warm-hearted, and kind. My clearest recollection of her; on Dec 21, 1954 when, as I was climbing the stairs to our room, she said, "I heard on CKX that you have a new brother. How wonderful!" It was, indeed. Now retired after +37 years in academia, I recall how I often thought of her as a wonderful model for the "teaching life".
