Molly Corlett – She lit up the room with her contagious smile and changed the world around her with her heart of gold. She had a way of making each day an act of kindness. And she and I could chat for hours about life and the beauty of connecting with others. And she still continued to send me many messages of faith, hope, and inspiration during my journey. As the memories in 506U run through my head this week, I realize just how integral Molly was in setting a standard for hard work and most of all for caring for others. So much of what the StuGo program was and still is today, is a reflection of her. I pulled up what I wrote about her for the banquet her senior year, May 2016: “Molly my dear…your attention to detail is something that I myself strive for. There are so many aspects of the StuGo program that are the way they are because of you. Including an award created last year with just you in mind. It will forever be known as the Molly Corlett Award because of the standard you set. But it’s not just your hard work that makes you set the bar so high. You are the leader that makes others around you want to be better. Your heart is so big and you are going to do amazing things in this world. And Molly – I am a better teacher because of you.” Thank you Molly for bringing so much joy to my heart.
