Tribute: To the Scott Family, Your wife and mother taught with all her heart. I believe teaching was her passion. She taught not only math but life lessons as well through her words and actions. She made learning fun each and every day in her classroom. In this day and age of 'No Child Left Behind' Mrs. Scott would have excelled in fulfilling that motto as she found a way to meet every student's needs. I feel it was her goal that all her students succeed and we indeed did. She has touched many lives and the world is a better place because of her. I have many fond memories and stories from her classroom and it's my wish that you hold fast to the memories you have. Her smile, wit, love of teaching and love of life will not be forgotten. My deepest sympathy to you all. Kim Benson

Tribute: Scott Family, You have my deepest sympathy in the loss of Mrs. Scott. When I look back in life, I count her as my favorite teacher and owe her so much. The first day of classes our freshman year, she came to the general math class and took me out and told me that I belonged in her class because I needed to go to college. Without her push, I would not have a college degree and worked as a professional my entire life. She was a very special woman and leaves a legacy of students who will always remember her with much gratitude. May this help to comfort you in the days ahead. Rest in peace, Mrs. Scott.

Tribute: I remember how Mrs. Scott related to each and every student and explained her math problems in a way even the worst math student could understand. I remember her loud teaching voice, "hold on to your jockstrap ace", review in the mornings on test day and how she used to run through the gym to get back to her classroom. Many long hours of caring and teaching made her the best math teacher I (and many others) had and will ever have. A great one was lost and will forever be remembered. I thank her for all her hard work and dedication to all of her students. Thank you Mrs. Scott for everything! "Tassell"

Tribute: Mike, JD, and family, my prayers are with you in your time of loss. When I use math in daily life, I often think of "Mrs. Scott". My most common memory is that of 20 students at the chalk board all at once. No secrets...either you got it or you didn't, but we didn't move on until everyone had it. She never needed to discipline anyone, she had too much of our respect. The only detention I recall her handing out(I'm sure thier were others) was to Jared when he called her Rochelle in study hall. I'll miss seeing her when I return to Burt, but I'll never quit thinking of her when I use math.

Tribute: Dear Mike, Armand, Shane, JD and family. I was so sorry to hear of Rochelle's passing. I didn't know she had been battling cancer, so it was a real shock when Tracy e-mailed me and told me she had died. She really was a great Burt friend to me as all of you were. I just read through all of her tributes, and she truly was a great lady!! I loved visiting with her every week when she came into the shop, talking sports, working with her in the church, singing in our "big choir", and visiting with her after I came back to Burt for Burt Days. She may have judged me in her own way, but I never felt it when we were together again. That really meant a lot to me. You are so honored to have had her in your life, and I am honored to have known her. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Sincerely, Kaye Calligan

Her love for life and teaching was very evident in everything she did. I also had the opportunity to haul her in mydad's convertible in the Sweetcorn Day parade, the summer after she retired. We had such a good time visiting as we were waiting for the parade to begin. You have my deepest sympathy. What a wonderful lady she was, I am proud to have know her. Kerry Kahler

Tribute: I read a poem that stated "A good teacher is like a candle, it consumes itself to light the way for others". I believe Rochelle embodied that poem as she transfered her fire to many of us that were honored enough to call her our teacher. Like so many others, I owe my respect of mathematics to Rochelle. I struggled mightly with algebra I & II but she would not allow me to give up and I'll be forever grateful to her for that as I use advanced mathematics daily in my Air Force career. I know deep inside, I would not have succeeded in the Air Force without her direct but caring mentoring. My memories of Rochelle as a family friend are just as strong as those of her teaching ability. Our families have shared many great moments through the years and Rochelle is at the core of them all. She will be missed by all that were smart enough to allow that fireball of woman inside. Jenny's and my sympathies go out to the Scott, Andrews, and Wall families. May God bless and keep you.

Never gave up on anyone no matter how long it took. I can still remember one day when some of the guys in my class put a disected frog on her chair and how she jumped when she pulled her chair out. She was a great sport. Don't ever remember her without a smile. She truly loved her job. Rochelle taught 7 of my siblings also. Each and everyone of us loved having her as a teacher. She not only was a great math teacher she was a great person and role model. My sympathy to Mike, Armande, Shane and the rest of the family. model. You are all in my prayers. Kathy
