It is often said that teachers do not join the profession for the money.  After hearing what her colleagues and students had to say about my sister-in-law during her retirement party from UVM, it is easy to understand what motivates them.  Susan has enriched the lives of all she has touched and the gratitude in the room was overwhelming.  Speaker after speaker, young and old, had nothing but the most amazing things to say about her and the impact she has had on their lives.  I took hundreds of photos at the event (celebrated as a “graduation party”) which can be found here.
