Just a few random thoughts about Mrs. Hooven.  Our fourth grade classroom was in the Willowick Jr. High building while Royalview was being expanded.  "Miss Lemmerman" had only taught for one year prior to our class and she invested a lot energy and enthusiasm in her teaching. 

Her father had been a mayor of Lakeline and she must have also been interested in democracy because she had a suggestion box for students to contribute ideas, made by Kathy Cunningham and Judy Bidelman, who were also elected class officers.

At the end of the year she announced she was leaving Royalview and was getting married.  Then she invited our class to a beach party at her (parents') home in Lakeline. There were sandy beaches along the shore back then.  She also had a new red Corvair.  It didn't quite have the muscle of Mr. Kinsella's '61 Thunderbird, but the Corvair was a brand new model and it was a convertible !

One other memory that provoked some good laughs was mistakenly thinking she said her fiance's name was Hoover and he was from Canton.  I asked if she would giving up teaching to make TV commercials for vacuum cleaners.
