Teacher Lillian Dobbie (Hopkins)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Name While Teaching FESS: Miss Dobbie (Lillian)Nicknames: Dob Married: Fred Hopkins - July 5, 1975 Birthday: April 29 Family: Lillian 1980 Where am I now: Cobourg Year Started Teaching at FESS: 1970 - 1973 Year Retired: 2002 Most Memorable Student(s): Oh had so many wonderful students. Each individual brought something unique and special into the day. Gads to name a few! Lets see Mary Pat Sparling always had a smile and bounce in her step, Gloria Durante was always cool, calm and a hard worker, Nancy Horner was quiet and reserved but had a special sparkle in her eye. Then there was Janet Smith, Linda Runka, Francine Hurd, Dorthea Weiss, Brenda Sims, Kathy Schmidt, Cindy Owens, Dorothy Stouffer... oh I could go on and on! You were all great! Most Memorable Class/Group: Enjoyed all my classes. Loved grade 9 sewing as students were so enthusiastic and eager to learn. Grade 11 foreign foods was fun as I never knew what would happen next. FESS was the first school I taught at and therefore I have very fond memories of the new challenges which face any new teacher. Favourite Subjects I Taught: Home Economics Favourite Hangouts: S.U.N.N.Y. in Buffalo, Old Fort, Golf Course Favourite Yearly Events: Musicals especially Camelot Favourite Music: I Can See Clearly Now by Johnny Nash, I Am Woman by Helen Reddy Claims To Fame Back Then: Made it through the first year with only being called to the Principal's office once. I was the one who caught the Principal's daughters smoking in the girls washroom and they were suspended. (Sorry girls!) Best Friends: Joyce MacDonald the librarian at FESS. Joyce made my short time at Fort Erie extra special. She still holds a special place in my heart. E-mail Me At: hopkinfl@eagle.ca Posted: April 21, 2003 FESSgrads © copyright in Canada
