Dear family of Fern Langemannn,
I attended Marion Carson Elementary for the first seven years of my grade school, where Ms. Langemann, to my recollection, was both the art teacher and assistant principal at the time. I am now 31, and still have vivid memories of two things specifically about her. One being the tight bun she almost always had her long hair up in, and the other a small story.
During kindergarten, I remember the anticipation of not being at the bottom of the totem pole once I would be in grade one, and once this day finally came, I would make the most of it. I stood in line for the water fountains right outside the main office at Marion Carson, then noticed a kindergarten student was ahead of me in line, so my opportunity presented itself and promptly pushed the smaller student aside and went right to the front of the line. No sooner had I turned the tap for a drink then a firm gripped woman ripped me from the fountain and dragged me into her office. I had a great respect for Ms. Langemann, not only because she didn’t call my mother that day, but because she was fair and also very respected by many parents in the school. I attended her retirement party about a decade ago at least, and I remember the turnout was significant!! My thoughts are with you and your family.
Pls Forgive my grammar as this was typed on my phone, my how far we’ve come!!!
Kind Regards,
Craig Heynen
