Like many people, I have fond memories of school and the wonderful teachers that have enriched my life with knowledge. Our teachers also have an amazing ability to remember each and every child they teach. Even decades after teaching, you may bump into an old teacher like Lorly Schik and they will remember you instantly.
Lorly Schik, a retired kindergarten teacher, noticed a newscaster on television that used to be a student of hers. It was nearly 30 years ago but Lorly Schik remembers her former student named Cory Hepola and wrote his parents a letter expressing how much she enjoyed watching him on the K11 Sunrise news program.
