I knew Barb Goddard Stahl back when my own child was in 7th and 8th grade at Central Junior High. She was a teacher who had that remarkable touch for motivating students and then getting them self-motivated. What a gift! And, what a tragic loss for her family. I saw her back in November at the grocery store, and she still had those remarbly attractive brown eyes.Superior, WI 01/22/2012 10:46 AM
