What grade were you in when you moved to Bluffton?
I was in fourth. Mr. Kooker was my teacher. Before coming to Bluffton my family lived in Belgium Congo. I attended first, second and third grades there. I spoke English and a little Lingala dialect. I think the first person I remember in Bluffton was Miss Meredith Stepleton, the elementary principal.
