READING WEEK CELEBRATION
The

BRASHEAR LOSES DEAR FRIEND
The
Adair County R-II School and community have lost a good friend and role model
through the death of Diane Bradley.
While we are sad that she will no longer be with us, we are comforted by
our memories of her dedication and commitment to the education of students here
at Adair County R-II and the surrounding communities.
The
school continues to receive donations to the scholarship fund in her
memory. We hope to provide a complete
list of those who have honored Mrs. Bradley in the December newsletter.
God saw her
getting tired,
a cure not
meant to be,
so He put
his arms around her,
and
whispered…
“Come with
Me”
