Such a wonderful and gentle person, who’s teachings has left a lasting impression on so many.  You are not forgotten Ms. Daves ♥️
WRHS Class of 1978

Janice and Ernest helped watch out for my aunt, Gloria Spann for many years. Janice made sure my aunt had meals to eat and Ernest mowed her grass and helped her take care of things around her property.  Your parents were special and helped a number of people in their days. So sorry for your loss.

Layton and I are so sorry for your loss, she was a very special lady.  Prayers for all of the family.                           

Laura, your daddy was my favorite teacher at WRHS. I remember when your mom was pregnant, I was in nursing school. I came home one weekend to show your mom and dad how to bathe their baby and diaper her. They were special people. You were blessed to have them.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Christine Bogna Beers

Earnest and Ms Janice have been dear friends to my brothers and myself.  I met them both when I was very young.  And we became good friends  when I got to WRHS.  Laura and Mrs Platt you and the red of the family will be in our thoughts and prayers…

Mrs. Daves was not only my teacher in high school for accounting and the work-study program, but supervised my student teaching.  I could not have asked for a better role model.  RIP Mrs. Daves.

Oh, what a special couple Ernest and Janice are to the WRHS Family! They were dedicated educators who were very supportive of my father (Joseph E. Smith) when he was principal.  Janice taught me as a junior and senior at WRHS.  We had to work hard but had the most fun in her classes.  She is a special lady and my family will be praying for Laura and her family during this time of remembrance.
