Fitness tribute Copyright © 2009 GALLUP — Last Wednesday Indian Hills Elementary School honored a beloved teacher who lost her life this year to a drunken driver.Beulah Talayumptewa taught fifth grade for most of her tenure at Indian Hills Elementary, but she had just started teaching fourth grade in August, when a drunken driver collided with her car on N.M. Highway 371 between Farmington and Crownpoint. “Basically we were coming back from Durango,” Talayumptewa’s husband, Darryl Talayumptewa, said recently. “We were dropping my son off to start college ... and we both had to work the next day ... they were driving down the wrong lane and you couldn’t tell because it was at a bend in the road.” To read more subscribe to the Gallup Independent by calling (505) 863-6811 or purchase the paper at the newsstand. |
