04/05/2006 - Dorothy Nicholas - Staff

I think Dorothy Nicholas would be a good candidate for Ragan's Wall because of the dedication and devotion she has for her job and those she is around.  Ms. Nicholas is the girls swimming coach and I've heard from the swimmer's how much of a positive impact she has had in their lives as a coach.  Three years ago, a devastating thing happened in Ms. Nicholas' life.  Her son committed suicide.  This was a very hard time for her and she has grown as a person from this event and now gives of her time to speak for SAVE* to help prevent future suicides.  Last year when we experienced suicides, she was there as a support system, helping people grieve and learn more about suicide prevention and depression.  Ms. Nicholas would be a good candidate for Ragan's Wall because of all that she's been through and [her] selfless heart.
