I have fond memories of Judy Sekera as mentor and friend when I first taught in Academy School District 20. Her sense of humor, keen wit and teaching expertise were her trademarks. Lunch dates after we both retired were full of conversation about trips abroad and impressive photography. Thanks for the memories, Judy; you were a true professional living an enthusiastic life.
