Dr. Wynnedith Ritchey

I certainly cannot take credit for any of the following stories but perhaps you'll enjoy this DID YOU KNOW session as I did...

DID YOU KNOW THAT....

* At the age of 49, Wynnedith Ritchey went back to school and began her own Doctoral study?

* After she retired, she helped with the Red Cross Blood Mobile and Bedford County Historical Society?

* She cared so much for her students that she opened her home for multiple semesters in order to ensure that they could graduate.

* With a love for technology she bought herself a VHS camera, recorded each of her three children's Christmas' and presented them each a gift of a VCR.

* She was perhaps one of the first people in Bedford County to own an Apple II computer. 

(Who doesn't love an apple woman??)

* She also had one of the first personal tape recorders!

* She visited forty seven states and nine countries.

* She was sworn into the CIA for secretarial duties.

* Dr. Wynnedith Ritchey taught  English and Business Education at Everett Area High School from 1955 – 1990 and was fondly known to her students as “Doc."

* She also taught English1 for two years for the Penn State Bedford County Campus and also Juniata College. 

* She served as Past President of the Fort Bedford Toastmistress Club, Council II, ITC; Everett Area Education Association, Business Ed Section of PSEA VPAE, PA Business Education Association and Bedford Branch AAUW.

*Dr. Wynnedith Ritchey most certainly did not want Amazing Grace played at her funeral. She was NO wretch. 



P.S. Did you know that she loves YOU the most?
