Folks,

It is with sadness and a broken heart that I share with you that Sister Virginia Young passed away last night.

Sister Virginia started her career in Deaf Education in 1950 at SMSD. Sister was great, sweet, caring and Child First share a few things about her. Sister Virginia was a fierce advocate for SMSD

For those of you, who may not have known her, the YAH is named after her and her sister. I have no doubt that Virginia and Loretta are together right now in a very good place.

I do not have information on services or arrangements. When I am informed the arrangements, I will let you know.

With extreme sadness,

Tim PS. Please do forward as appropriate.
Timothy M. Kelly
Superintendent
