"Miss Cahill" was my eighth grade teacher at the Packard School in So. Lawrence..1952-53. She was a wonderful teacher and made our year in her class a most memorable one. She taught us much about respect and love for one another. She was stict but so caring. I could never honor her enough for all she did for us. We have great memories of her and will remember her always. My sympathies to all of her family and close friends. Cynthia (Martell) Rowe
Miss Cahill was a family friend. My grandmother, Edna Todd, was her Girl Scout leader. Girlie was highly respected as a teacher. She made a wonderful difference in the lives of MANY people!

I have many pleasant memories of Girlie from the several years I spent as a counselor at Camp Maude Eaton. Hers was a life well lived.
Miss Cahill was my 8th grade teacher. She was the best person to have instructing you just before entering high school. She expected the very best from you and accepted nothing less. She instilled in me confidence and the desire to learn. During my years of employment at the State House in Boston, Miss Cahill visited my office whenever she was in the city and never left without telling me how very proud she was of me. Even as an adult it meant a lot to hear this from Miss Cahill. The children of Lawrence have lost a truly wonderful, caring teacher with the passing of Genevieve Cahill. Stefania (Kwasniewski) Small

To the family of Miss Cahill, She was my first and eighth grade teacher at the Packard School in Lawrence. She was always so kind and so pleasant she will surely be missed. My family use to see her and her Mom every Sunday at St. Patricks Mass in Lawrence. She helped me so much with so many things and always encouraged me do do my best. I always wondered how it was that I went to Camp Maude Eaton now after reading her obit I can see she probably had everything to do with it. She knew we were not well off and always tried to do things for myself and my brother. I have never forgotten Miss Cahill and what a tribute to her. She was the best teacher I ever had the pleasure of learning from. Knowing her committment to the Lord she is finally home with her Mom in God's Kingdom. If anyone was a guardian Angel she was to so many. She was such a great role model to all her students and I'm sure I do not stand alone with the words I'm writing. I will miss you Miss Cahill and you will always have a place in my heart. Ellen M. (Laverriere) Little
Ms Cahill was more than an educator or Girl Scout leader, she was an inspiration - and a friend to all she met. She commanded the respect of all who knew her or of her - not by position, but by her well-demonstrated abilities. There are few of whom this can be said. She will be sorely missed.
To the family of Miss Cahill, She was my first and eigth grade teacher at the Packad School in Lawrence. I have never ever forgotten her and her mother. They were always together at St. Patricks Church for Sunday Mass. She was so good to me and what a wonderful role model for all her students. I never knew how I got to go to Camp Maude Eaton when I was a kid but now I know it must have been her doing. She new my family was poor and always greeted us with a big smile. She always worked extra with me encouraging me to do so much. She really will be missd by so many but knowing her faith in the Lord she is exactly where she should be. "In God's Kingsdom". I always felt she was my guardian Angel. Thank you Miss Cahill for being the most wonderful and memorable Teacher I ever had the pleasure of knowing throughout my schools years. Best regards, Ellen Marie (Laverriere) Little
