Mrs. Karla Shaffer

May 6th, 2008

The Willard Soccer Program would like to express our deepest sympathy to the Shaffer family in the passing of Mrs. Shaffer. Mrs. Shaffer was a dedicated and devoted member of our school board and was a huge supporter of all school activities and an advocate for children! Willard Superintendent Dr. Kent Medlin released the following statement regarding Mrs. Shaffer:

It saddens my heart today to write this e-mail. As many of you know Karla Shaffer, one of our seated members of the Board of Education passed away this weekend. Karla had been fighting cancer for over a year. During this entire ordeal she remained active on the board and was just re-elected last month. The service will be held in the Willard Middle School gymnasium at 4:00 on Wednesday, May 7th 2008.

Karla had a passion for the Willard School District that was unequaled! Even though I am sad I know in my heart that she is in a better place, healthy, smiling, and probably taking care of a child. I look forward to the day when we meet again!

Note: There will be no practice Wednesday as we know many will be attending the service.

Tigers Stay Close to Yellowjackets

May 5th, 2008

The Willard Tigers played a strong defensive game against Lebanon on Monday night and were in the ball game until the 66th minute when a penalty kick gave the Yellowjackets a 2-1 advantage. As Willard pushed players forward in an attempt to find the equalizer, Lebanon was able to find net for their third goal of the evening.

The Willard Tigers would like to wish Coach Gow the best of luck in his new position as he makes the switch from Lebanon to Waynesville.
