Mrs. Barbara Murphy passed in early December of 2001 after a battle with cancer. She was, of course, a long-time Fairport High School English teacher. She was also active in the community, serving on the Fairport Zoning Board, and an active member of the Atheneum. |

| Mrs.
Murphy was a role model for me in my career as a teacher . . . she
expected her students' intellects to work hard, at an adult level, and she
never lost her sense of humor (which at times could be painfully sharp!). -- Molly McNulty - submitted May 6, 2002 |
| I always saw
Mrs. Murphy as the teacher's teacher in the department. Every time I was
in their office, she was sharing something with one of the other teachers.
She was a mentor before the concept was fashionable. -- William Washburn - submitted July 26, 2002 |
