Hi Lisa,

I am the parent of two of the children from Walnut Ave. School in Cranford. My children very much enjoyed your visit the other day. I thought that I would share a sweet story with you. I was talking to my children about the possibility of going back to work next year as a teacher. I told them that it may not happen though because it's tough to get a job these days. My son, who is a first grader, said that I should never give up. "Mom, Lisa Mullarkey said that she kept getting the thumbs down 100 times. But, she never gave up! You shouldn't give up either." I thought that was so sweet. Thanks for making an impression on my kids. They haven't stopped taking about you. 
 

Sincerely, 
Maria Manfra
