I am a Crawford graduate from 1976 and have
been enjoying your FRY DAY emails for quite some time. I’ve often
thought I should send you an email in return to thank you for the clever
and interesting information you share. But today, I just had to
write because of Bill Grantham’s Darnall Elementary school class
photos. My mother, Lucille Wendling, was his 5th grade
teacher! My mother turned 104 this past Wednesday (January 22,
2025). If you can, please tell Bill that I shared this class photo
from 1961 with my mother. She was delighted! She taught at
Darnall and then later at Montezuma Elementary. She’s now been
retired longer than the 35 years she worked for San Diego City Schools!
