"I moved to Lutz with my two girls in 1960. As a working gal, I didn't get involved with the Old Lutz School until sometime during the Haunted House days (nights). I would go over after supper and help take the entry money. After retiring and getting involved with the Woman's Club, I also became part of the OLS "gang". I really enjoy the people and feel that my small part helps. "
