I saw the picture of Blackberry school and you wanted help identifying people in the picture. The teacher is Ruth Humboldt and the first person on the left in the front ........the little boy is  John Pernic.  I know this because I have  a picture of  5  of those children with Ruth.  I am sure mom (Ruth) would know the other children. She is very sharp; great memory and is now 89. But she  does not have a computer. So I can't send it to her so she can identify the other kids.  Joyce Hennig
