Faces in the Crowd: A Guiding Light

Jonnie S. Ryan, Dolores resident and former librarian and teacher at Dolores Schools, received an award of gratitude during the All School Reunion program on Saturday. She has spent 39 years at Dolores Schools and is retiring this year. Three generations of her family, including her mom, herself, and her sons, have graduated from Dolores. The plaque reads, "In appreciation for your dedication to education, for believing in children, for guiding through example, for inspiring with passion, for living through loving, for leaving an indelible mark on the future, for touching the human soul...you have made a difference." And she has.
