Personal Note: My work on the Iditarod Traveling Quilt projects is dedicated to the memory of my friend and coworker, Bobbie Rieck. Bobbie gave me an Iditarod Quilt to celebrate my journey as the 2000 Iditarod Teacher on the Trail™. This quilt hangs in my home today and represents the threads that bind us together educationally, emotionally, and spiritually, today, tomorrow, and forever. Bobbie was the BEST teacher I’ve ever known. In teaching she demonstrated and helped me know that it is more important to ‘uncover’ knowledge and build on that knowledge. She taught from her heart and her soul. She shared her life’s experiences with students and made learning fun, real life, and applicable. She did not need to ‘teach to the test’ because her kind of teaching withstands the test of time and lives on in those she taught. I’ve learned to miss her a little, tiny bit less, because a bit of her lives on in me. With gratitude, with love, to Bobbie. (Photo, April 2000)
