[Publib] Another librarian worth remembering here

[George Hazelton]

It is good to be reminded of these heroes.  I had the good fortune to know
Mary Louise Rheay when I came to Georgia in 1982.  My thanks to Ms. Hayden
for furnishing the link.

Subject: [Publib] "Old" librarian

 

I would like to suggest we take a minute and read this obituary in the
Atlanta Journal-Constitution (link below) and then consider the impact we
can make in our communities as we age. I only wish I had known this "old"
librarian and been able to learn from her.

Best,

Ruth
