Beloved Fraternity Housemother Retires (U. of Kentucky)

Nice human interest story about the retirement of a fraternity housemother and her many contributions to the members' lives. CAUTION: content may be heartwarming.

What a wonderful story about a remarkable lady. I hope she truly understands how much difference she made in the lives of those men over the years!

We need more people like that in the world.

What a lovely article. Though I know there are Fraternity men probably wouldn't like to have a House Mother such as she, it does show what a good House Mother can do.

Very hard not to get a little misty eyed over this article!

Sounds like Ms. White knew just how to handle Her Boys!

I am sure she will be sorely missed asnd hard to replace!

ex, thanks for finding this and posting this.
