Mantua – On November 11, Crestwood Primary School (CPS) held a dedication ceremony of a new “Little Library” box in memory of Terri Lawless, a former staff member who passed away earlier this fall. A true community effort, the Gilles family donated the materials and construction; the staff at CPS donated the funds to purchase a bench that reads, “In Loving Memory of Terri Lawless,” the Picone family installed the “Little Library” box and bench; and the staff donated the books to fill the “Little Library” box.
Lawless was a librarian at the primary school last school year and was working at both the primary and intermediate school offices this school year. “Terri loved books, working with kids, and instilling a love of reading,” said Principal Cynthia Ducca, Crestwood Primary School. “She also loved helping students with math and reading.”
