I was saddened to hear that Miss Castaldo was hospitalized.  I wish her a speedy recovery.  She was 'a favorite' since I was first in her class in Roosevelt Jr. High.  I think of her fondly often.  When I became an educator (taught English) I often thought of the lessons taught in her, Mr. Bonner, Mrs. Bolton, and Mr. Walsh's classes. What a fine group of educators!
