Slain teacher, Noelle Paquette, always looked out for students in need

SARNIA, ONT. - Noelle Paquette left her house every day with two lunches.
One for herself and one for a student in need.
The bubbly 27-year-old kindergarten teacher had only been at St. Matthew’s Catholic School for a few months covering a maternity leave, but friends say she left a lasting impact on students.
Miss P, as she was known, wanted to turn all her students into “smash hits” — a term she used to describe success. Knowing they couldn’t do it without the basics, she even bought clothing and footwear for students who were in need.
That’s just the type of teacher and person Noelle was, friend Kyle Braatz said.
“I think there was no better profession for Noelle,” said Braatz, who met Paquette 10 years ago while they studied at the University of Ottawa. “She was meant to be a teacher.”
But Paquette’s career was tragically cut short.
Her body was found in a woodlot last Wednesday. She'd gone missing after leaving a New Year’s Eve party in downtown Sarnia.
Tanya Bogdanovich, 31, and Michael MacGregor, 19, both of Sarnia, have been charged with first-degree murder.
They were arrested Thursday at a London, Ont., hotel. QMI Agency reported Sunday the pair appear to have been involved in a perverse online relationship that included detailed accounts of rape and violence.
Provincial police in this southern Ontario city didn’t release any new information on the case Monday.
To honour Paquette's memory, her family and friends have launched Noelle’s Gift, a fund to help Lambton County students in need. Donations will help purchase classroom supplies, nutritional meals, and clothing and footwear.
Braatz said the fund is the perfect way to honour his kind-hearted friend.
“If you met her once, you fell in love with her just the way she smiled, the way she didn’t judge a single soul,” he said. “As soon as she met you, she wanted to be your friend.”
Students and staff at St. Matthew’s Catholic School honoured their late teacher Monday on their first day back from Christmas holidays.
Prayer services were held throughout the morning. Teachers met beforehand to say their own prayers.
Paquette’s funeral will be held Tuesday morning.

What is it about SWO that breeds perverse sadistic duos?

It just doesn't get any sadder than this!

This is very sad indeed and it is the work of people who are not mentally balanced.
That is where this is leading but in fact some people are just plain bad simple as that.

what else have we learned in the past month, we should ban all guns, ban all knives,
and now the Internet.

Actually it is time to have a national discussion to determine what we are going to do in
our society to deal with crazy people when they commit crimes, and how we keep them
from killing our honest citizens. Some likely heard the news on the west coast, where a
woman charged with cruelty to animals, expressed she would like to become a serial killer
and the courts are powerless to deal with her. No we can't lock people up for evil fantasies
but we should be able, incarcerate those who are mentally ill to the point where they want
to harm others.
The sad fact is we are going to put this scum in prison and pay a hundred thousand a piece
year after year, while this young lady with so much promise get laid to rest and dirt thrown
on her coffin. Does that seem in any regard fair to her, or her family or the community?

Now THAT is downright scary. Apparently she was an adoptee from Romania years ago, the fault probably isn't all hers but whatever one way or another she has to be stopped by whatever means it takes.
