Campbell City Schools dedicates bench in memory of teacher

CAMPBELL — Campbell City Schools dedicated a bench today in honor of former second-grade teacher Leigh Yallech.

A teacher in Campbell for 17 years, Yallech suffered a stroke and died in 2015 at the age of 46.

The Leigh Yallech Memorial Fund arranged for the bench to be placed in her honor at the Campbell K-7 School courtyard.

Students planted flowers near the bench this afternoon, and the Parent-Teacher Organization provided a picnic with a magician.
