    Ms. Webb is the epitome of the perfect Leader. She NEVER missed the opportunity to greet anyone collegially as well as engage in a friendly, energetic conversation. Any student-centered interactions I had with Ms. Webb she followed up on immediately for the benefit of our kids at BLS. Ms. Webb was always very diligent in assisting with the cleaning up of the Dining Hall between lunches……we made a nice tag team!!! ;-). Cynthia was definitely one of my “go to’s”! Such a positive spirit!!! Cynthia is. and will be missed dearly.
