Eleanor Cunningham, Teacher Extraordinaire
 
Eleanor, you are unique
A teacher extraordinaire
 
Though practical and unsentimental
You teach from the heart as well as the mind
Reaching out to all but especially the needy
You teach with authority and clarity
The Word of God and doctrine
 
While talking the talk you walk the walk
You live and witness, an example to follow
Though not faultless, you are blameless
Before the Lord and many earthly witnesses
 
For your faithfulness and firm softspoken conviction
I salute you, Elanor
Teacher extraordinarire
 
Eleanor Cunningham, Teacher Extraordinaire (c)2012  Quentin Clingerman
 
Note: Eleanor has taught Sunday School for many, many, many years.  She has been my teacher of many of those years.  She is retiring from regular teaching.
