January 2, 2012
On the very first walk of the new year, we took a trip across 33rd to a monument dedicated to Lizette Woodworth Reese, Waverly teacher, poet, and writer, born 1856, died 1935. The monument is across from the YMCA, up on a hill in front of Eastern High School (between Loch Raven and Ellerslie). Check it out yourself some time and also look for other Reese tributes in the area. Waverly is proud to call Ms. Reese a native soul.
