Byrneville Elementary Celebrates Principal Beating Cancer

April 28, 2016

Byrneville Elementary School Principal Dee Wolfe-Sullivan had a really good day Wednesday. Less than 24 hours before arriving for work, she successfully completed breast cancer treatment.

Despite the daily radiation treatments, she never missed a day of school; she would come to work before leaving for her treatments.

Wednesday morning, she arrived to find her staff and students wearing pink in her honor.

And, like the family Byrneville Elementary School is, they celebrated victory against cancer together.

    Our whole family is so thankful that Mrs. Dee Sullivan is the most amazing wonderful principal and and my teens really miss not seeing her daily.

    My grand kids love her too, and hope she is around when they have kids.

    I’m so excited to hear about this! Mrs. Sullivan was the best principal I’ve ever known! My son and niece had the opportunity to go to school at Byrneville and my son had the honor to graduate from there. She was the best person! I’m so glad she’ll be able to keep on influencing other children!
